What are YOU doing to help stop terror?

[The Man @ Lunch]

As for my neighbors, I know my neighbors, I don't like them. I don't like most people, hell, I don't even like my sister.

Do you like them any better than you'd like a suicide bomber running down your street?

I can't think of many people I'd dislike more than the bomber.

 

[The Man @ Lunch]

I don't watch Idol, I do know my neighbors, I do know the people that work in my local stores, and as a matter of fact, I do have one of those magnets somewhere.

So, welcome to the board.....again? Methinks you've been here before.

Nope. Just lurked for a while. Honest.

I've seen you on different boards, though. Don't worry; I fully intend to play (reasonably) nice when I'm not in the Arena.

I agree with you. One day, we will have homicide bombers in america, because we do nothing for our borders, and we act as if were not in a war.

You got me there. The truth is, they're all good people, I guess I'm just not the sociable type. The people I socialize with on a regular basis I've known for over twenty years. I know my neighbors well enough to say that none of them are homicide bombers. Now, my Lebanese friends are questionable.

I think we need to be suspicious of all arabs, and muslims living in america. Because, we must sort out the good and bad. Without fear of political correctness

The largest mosque in my area did a very smart thing after 9/11: they hosted a BIG open house day: lots of speakers, people to ask questions to 1-on-1, food and refreshments, the whole deal. Personally, I think that more law-abiding muslims should do things like this; they shouldn't expect to come to the US just to isolate themselves (as some others have done).

Suvs use MORE gas then other cars. Therefore I would ban SUV's. Most conservatives would hate me for saying that.

Now, how about you make a point, other then a personal attack?

Why the hell does it bother people what someone else is driving?

Wealth envy? Jealousy?

Road safety. Those things are a menace. Bad as the motorhomes driven by 85-year-olds.

So. Do you have anything to say that relates to the topic?

 

[actsnoblemartin]

yes.

[actsnoblemartin]

I dont like any car that gets under 25 miles per gallon, and suvs are the worst miles per gallon...

Thank You kindly, just so you know, i meant every word i said, I would BAN suv's and all cars that do not get atleast, 20 or 25 miles per gallon. and shhh, im a conservative

Well the only problem with your plan is a LOT of SUV's DO get 20 or more mpg. I known mine does.

 

[actsnoblemartin]

so perhaps banning them is a bad idea, but atleast lets improve the gas miliage on them and other cars.

The driver not the vehicle is the problem. In fact your safer in a larger vehicle then a smaller one. This is more hype like the gas milage one.

 

[actsnoblemartin]

I agree that drivers in america are retarded, HANG UP AND DRIVE

I am a large person, it is much easier for me to get into a vehicle up off the ground then a car. My SUV gets 22 MPG and the older model still pulls in 20 in town.

As for making better gas mileage, you need to talk to the oil companies, as i recall they have been buying up all those better engines for years.

 

[actsnoblemartin]

Yeah, youre right, those darn oil companies, dont give a dam about their own country, its quiet sad. I take what i said back, we shouldnt ban suvs, I just want better gas mileage

How are SUV impacting road safety? If you are involved in a crash, your chances of living are better in the SUV

 

[The Man @ Lunch]

Y'all would rather defend SUVs than talk about how to keep the US safer from terror?

What kind of Americans are you? You should be ashamed.
