This is something I discuss quite a bit both online and IRL, and something I have been observing for some time now.
Remember folks: Money talks. Monied Middle Eastern families send their kids to the US to get educated in American colleges. This has been going on for years and years (and years). Americans of Middle Eastern descent, and Middle Eastern nationals who are not US citizens, are allowed to get away with rudeness, snobbery, and outright hatefulness because of political correctness on the surface—under the surface it’s really more about money and political back-scratching, due in large part to our dependence on foreign oil. Americans have gotten so used to being ordered around and spit on by Middle Easterners here in the US that they are basically at this point wearing what amounts to blinders where any issue involving a person of Middle Eastern descent is concerned. This generates quite a bit of anger, as one might well imagine. Angry Americans then vent their pent-up spite on other Americans who, though harmless and well-intentioned, make convenient targets.
Any liberal/socialist person, regardless of how nice, forward-thinking, and “tolerant” he or she may seem, who urges or forces you to look the other way when a Middle Eastern person is exhibiting hatred or contempt for American culture in public, is not your friend; rather, the opposite. If anything, I am hopeful that this tragedy has at least put some of those PC thugs in their places—I doubt that it will shut them up entirely, however—unfortunately.
Twenty years ago my husband was an instructor at NAS Millington Tn.
They had Saudi students that they COULD NOT fail, period.They would be late to class, rude, not know the material... they were in.
Apparently if they got sent back to Saudi w/o passing the training, well let’s say it wouldn’t be a good day for them.
This used to get on his last nerve.
Very funny you should mention that Scarlett. I posted the video below on my FaceBook page which had been posted yesterday on FR:
REVOLUTION MUSLIM STREET DAWAH"
I only received one reply and it was from a liberal minded friend. It struck me what she chose to concentrate on. I haven't replied yet, but I will:
It's a shame that innocent American Muslims are once again going to be the target of bias (Not those in the video, but the vast majority of American Muslims). They had it hard after 911 and I expect it will be the same now.
I wonder how many people do recognise the truth, but just keep quiet because the legal system has made citizens liable to all kinds of repercussions for speaking the truth? The “protected” classes know the law is on their side, and they use it for petty “vengeance” on those who won’t condone their perversion or evil, even when the person won’t speak. It’s enough for a member of a protected “victim” class to know that someone thinks they’re wrong. We are already into the phase of “thought crime”.
