I've been out and off the 'net all day picking up relatives from OS at the airport then driving home and I read this...

[Doombrain]

shouldn't call these things 'attacks'.

New York Truck Get-together

And a million people suffering from Cholera in Yemen due to war but one thing hasn't got anything to do with the other right?

Oh no! You can't mourn over something because something worse has happened as well!

Cause it’s easy and literally anyone can do it. Not everyone can build a bomb or fly a plane into a building. But damn near everyone can drive a vehicle. It takes zero effort and basically very little planning. They’ve found a way that any joe-blow can become an accomplished martyr. It’s sick...

Honestly there aren’t bad people, only bad ideas. Islam, at its core, is a bad idea (of course there are good Muslims, but they don’t practice the true Islamic ideals). If these people had never found Islam they probably wouldn’t have found another reason to kill people. They would have just went along like the rest of us. So it’s not really the people we need to stop. It’s the idea...

How many times have you read the Quran?

[xer0s]

Only once I’m afraid...

i'm not a doctor but i'm pretty sure running over pedestrians isn't a treatment for cholera

it wouldn't be a bad idea if the people who believed in it all stuck together and kept to themselves in a faraway place that isn't here

like the Amish

I'm sure people thought the same thing about Catholicism during the Spanish Inquisition.

[seremtan]

i doubt that. the Inquisition was aimed at Jews who were suspected of being fake Catholics to avoid being expelled from Spain

unless by "people" you meant Jews
