"I can name that tune in 3 notes..."

[Phantom Lord]

What makes you think he is a terrorist? Doing a little generalizing and smearing by apperance are you?

[NautiNurse]

I can't get over how much Bustamante looks like Marlon Brando in The Godfather.

[Phantom Lord]

Oh, wait. I get it. Cruz is the terrorist!

[commish]

Man I don need no steekin green card man I'm from east LA man. Donchu know me man, I used to be on TV with that john Donson dude man.

[Phantom Lord]

And now Brando looks like Jabba The Hut!

[El Conservador]

The guy is most likely a Sikh, rahter than a Muslim.

It seems your half-baked attempt at humor backfired...

[RetiredArmy]

That is his Seattle Taxi Driver.

[snooker]

Hey in the no ID for driver's license deal, terrorist get them as well. Did you just think the driver's licenses were for Mexican illeggals? Got to be fair. Vote Dim.

You have to wonder if anyone thought this no ID license thing through.

[Registered]

LOL. You are right!

[bedolido]

I loved that movie... didn't know cheech M. could act. he was pretty good in that.

[Old Sarge]

Kind of resembles those life-size cutouts of Khomeini, left over from the Hostage Crisis in '79. Amazing where they turn up...

My caption:

"ALL JOUR VOTES BEE-LONG TO US!"

[Revolting cat!]

I think the question oughta be: can you spot the taxi driver with a Ph.D?

"Ahnold, he's nothing! I'm the Capo Regime around here!"

[jjm2111]

If you're talking about the guy in the back w/ Beard and Turban, he's a Sikh, and probably just as patriotic (sans Democratic voting) as all of us FReepers.

[bedolido]

The guy is most likely a Sikh, rahter than a Muslim.
It seems your half-baked attempt at humor backfired...

[Emily Lattila]

Without Davis, I coulda been a contenda!

[Redcloak]

"Before we get started, ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to ask a few questions of my own: Is it OK if I refer to that guy in the turban as a sandn****r? Are there any n****rs in the room? Can I say that? Hello? Any n****rs, just speak right up. Did I mention that I'm not a racist? Some of my best friends are n****rs."

[bedolido]

who's talking about the Sikh?

[hang 'em]

Sergeant Garcia, you are out of uniform.

[Redcloak]

Perhaps if you'd said terrorista...

[bedolido]

Cruz's praises must be sung! Sung loudly, I tell you!

[pogo101]

My wife is in love with your namesake from the videogames. *L*

[Cobra64]

Now, now. No racial profiling. Even though the guy with the turbin is wearing 6 sticks of dynamite.

[HitmanLV]

Phantom,

I think you really missed this one....

[MD_Willington_1976]

He's A sikh..not a muslim...they hate muslims for how they tried to convert sikh's to Islam...

The founder of the Sikh religion was Guru Nanak who was born in 1469. He preached a message of love and understanding and criticized the blind rituals of the Hindus and Muslims. Guru Nanak passed on his enlightened leadership of this new religion to nine successive Gurus. The final living Guru, Guru Gobind Singh died in 1708.

During his lifetime Guru Gobind Singh established the Khalsa order (meaning 'The Pure'), soldier-saints. The Khalsa uphold the highest Sikh virtues of commitment, dedication and a social conscious. The Khalsa are men and women who have undergone the Sikh baptism ceremony and who strictly follow the Sikh Code of Conduct and Conventions and wear the prescribed physical articles of the faith. One of the more noticeable being the uncut hair (required to be covered with a turban for men) and the Kirpan (ceremonial sword).

Before his death in 1708 Guru Gobind Singh declared that the Sikhs no longer needed a living and appointed his spiritual successor as Sri Guru Granth Sahib, his physical successor as the Khalsa. Guru Gobind Singh felt that all the wisdom needed by Sikhs for spiritual guidance in their daily lives could be found in Sri Guru Granth Sahib, the Eternal Guru of the Sikhs. Sri Guru Granth Sahib is unique in the world of religious scriptures because not only is it accorded the status of being the spiritual head of the Sikh religion, but besides the poetry of the Gurus, it also contains the writings of saints of other faiths whose thoughts were consistent with those of the Sikh Gurus.

Sikhism does not have priests, which were abolished by Guru Gobind Singh. The Guru felt that they had become corrupt and full of ego. Sikhs only have custodians of the Guru Granth Sahib (granthi), and any Sikh is free to read the Guru Granth Sahib in the Gurdwara (a Sikh temple) or in their home. All people of all religions are welcome to the Gurdwara. A free community kitchen can be found at every Gurdwara which serves meals to all people of all faiths. Guru Nanak first started this institution which outline the basic Sikh principles of service, humility and equality.

The most significant historical religious center for the Sikhs is Harmiandir Sahib (The Golden Temple) at Amritsar in the state of Punjab in northern India. It is the inspirational and historical center of Sikhism but is not a mandatory place of pilgrimage or worship. All places where Sri Guru Granth Sahib are installed are considered equally holy for Sikhs.

[waverna]

LOL! Hey, I forgot about that guy!!

[bedolido]

I've been told that several times here. Thanks for the info... the real terrorist is Cruz B though.

[Mr. Mojo]

[Phantom Lord]

What did I miss?

[HitmanLV]

I don't think the original post & remark was a crack about the sterotypical arab looking gentleman in the background, but rather it referenced the husky latino man (with ties to an extremist chicano ogrnaization) in the foreground.

[BenLurkin]

This is a guy for whom TAXES = LOVE.

And he is part of this group of anti-Americans: www.azteca.net/aztec/mecha/index.shtml

[Theo]

You realize that the "terrorist" joke was about Bustamante, right? Not the Sikh....

[Solamente]

TIME TO RAISE THE TAXES!

[Budge]

Ping!

[Rome2000]

[SAMWolf]

LOL! Nice Bust-amante ther Arnold

[DainBramage]

[Cultural Jihad]

lighten up...

Your sick attempt at humor will not be met with smiles from the Sikh community. There has been one murder already from some loon who thought a Sikh he accosted was a Muslim deserving of death.
