Utopia Talk / Politics / Terrorist on a plane
Muslim
Member | Thu Oct 21 18:08:48 OK, so, if you saw an Arab looking guy with a big beard and a turban on an airplane, would you be worried there is a possibility that he could be a terrorist? |

Member | Thu Oct 21 19:00:27 Not necessarily. He may very well be from India. If I heard him say something I would know if he were Indian or not. I would probably keep an eye on him if I was not sure. But then, they are recruiting terrorists from all nationalities. Anyone could be a terrorist. I would watch for other traits too such as nervousness and avoidance of eye contact. |

Member | Thu Oct 21 19:09:22 "He may very well be from India." There you go, HR thinks arabs are terrorists. |

Member | Thu Oct 21 19:33:10 Here's a better question, I think. If you were absolutely certain that there was one person on your plane who if you did not apprehend, it would guarantee the deaths of all passengers, would you go straight for the guy in a robe and turban? |

Tentacle Rapist | Thu Oct 21 22:25:40 What kind of turban is he wearing? |
Firestorm Phoenix
Member | Thu Oct 21 22:25:44 I wouldnt. The large beard and turban make him not mobile enough to be a threat. |
Firestorm Phoenix
Member | Thu Oct 21 22:46:23 "I would watch for other traits too such as nervousness and avoidance of eye contact." Because wanting to be left the fuck alone because people think you are a terrorist is reason to suspect them. "Anyone could be a terrorist." So what IS it like to live in fear? |

HOLY FUCK

Member | Sun Oct 24 08:41:49 No, see plenty of them in the UK. Arabs with beards, Iranians (not Arabs obv.), Bengalis with beards and hats. Dumb question really. Except they shoot Sikhs in America, because some moron thought the poor guy was an A-Rab, ironic that Sikhs have had a long enmity with muslims. |

Member | Sun Oct 24 09:08:18 No, I would think a real terrorist would try to blend in not stick out like a sore thumb. People that get nervous around people who are obviously muslim are just falling victim to their own prejudices. |

Member | Sun Oct 24 12:42:27 "No, I would think a real terrorist would try to blend in not stick out like a sore thumb. " Palestinian suicide bombers often dye their heirs blond or are even themselvs really 'white'-looking, and often wear stolen IDF uniforms. |
mexicantornado
Member | Sun Oct 24 14:56:39 Yes I would keep an eye on him and any other male who looks like they could be of middle eastern decent, or in general whoever acts odd. |

The Bloody Scourge | Sun Oct 24 16:51:28 racist and ignorant, a wonderful combo there tardo. |
mexicantornado
Member | Sun Oct 24 17:46:38 right, it is racist and ignorant to be aware that hijackers in the past have been middle eastern, there have been several would be plane disasters all carried out by men of middle eastern heritage. but yeah, it is racist and ignorant to keep an eye on middle eastern men on a plane. Thank christ the people working in the CIA, FBI, homeland security etc are not as stupid as you. |

Member | Sun Oct 24 17:52:14 We should search 100 year old grandmothers and 3 year old children and other people who don't fit the profile of a terrorist just to be politically correct |
Clitoral Hood
The Bloody Scourge | Sun Oct 24 17:58:38 just about the type of response I was expecting. trying to rationalize racism. it just makes you look even more retarded, bro. |
Muslim
Member | Sun Oct 24 18:19:06 So to everyone that answered yes, or thought yes, regarding the OP: - Basically, if Jesus were sitting next to you on a plane, you'd be worried he's about to blow it up. |
jergul
Member | Sun Oct 24 18:23:47 "dye their heirs blond" Cool. "stolen IDF uniforms." No army surplus stores in Israel? |
mexicantornado
Member | Sun Oct 24 18:35:34 Hood would you say the fort hood, (unintentional), shooting was a terrorist attack carried out by a muslim? |
mexicantornado
Member | Sun Oct 24 18:36:23 post script - what exactly is your problem with me keeping an eye on any middle eastern/shifty looking people on a plane? I hope you can elaborate beyond "it is racism". |
Clitoral Hood
The Bloody Scourge | Sun Oct 24 18:41:58 oh I don't care one way or the other. it's just racist. or at the very least, prejudice. the fort hood incident was an american deciding he's had enough with the US and going berserk. sure, terrorism. sure, he was muslim. how many non-muslim american terrorists have there been? lots more than the random radical attacks from the middle east. hell, the US was founded through terrorism. just sayin. |
mexicantornado
Member | Sun Oct 24 18:52:02 You think George Washington was a terrorist. Are you fucking retarded? The dude who shot up fort hood was, allegedly, yelling "Allah Ackbar" as he was guning down service men and women. Now yes or no, is that a terrorist act committed by a muslim? And okay, it seems your reasoning for it being racism is not really thought out. |
Clitoral Hood
The Bloody Scourge | Sun Oct 24 18:55:04 it's definition racism, you fuckwad. the rest of your post is too stupid to respond to. |
mexicantornado
Member | Sun Oct 24 18:58:17 No, the definition of racism: Racism is the belief that the genetic factors which constitute race are a primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism You are a moron. |
mexicantornado
Member | Sun Oct 24 19:02:27 I would bury your face in feces though, you have an opinion thats fair. But it seems to me that your opinion isn't really thought out and is more or less one taken from emotion and not logic or reasoning. |
Clitoral Hood
The Bloody Scourge | Sun Oct 24 19:02:49 I was making a leap of logic, I will admit. from "these guys are suspicious" to "fuck them, they're worthless" isn't a very large leap on these forums. and knowing how fucking stupid you are, it's an opinion I wouldn't be surprised to hear. so sure, if my assumption was wrong, then no. it isn't racism. although I covered that already with this little line: "or at the very least, prejudice." |

Let's hope more of your fellow Muslim freedom fighters end that way. malv = clit hood |

Tentacle Rapist | Sun Oct 24 22:05:10 Did you hear about the granny who had her needles confiscated on a plane? They were afraid she might knit an afghan. |
Asgard
Member | Sun Oct 24 23:52:13 It has been reported that about a year ago when 2 suicide bombers blew up in the Moscow tube, one of the terrorists was a russian-looking female. She is from the Caucasus of course, hence her white-european appearance; she was a muslim. |
Milton Bradley
Member | Mon Oct 25 01:56:48 What kind of dumbass question is this? Of course I would, as would everyone else who was exposed to certain spectacular events and the subsequent media deluge. Would you be disgusted if a southeast Asian handed you a plate with a huge roasted spider on it? No of course not, because you're an impeccable paragon of tolerance. There are basically two kinds of people: racial profilers/racists/bigots (whatever you want to call them since there's been a few semantic arguments about it on UP recently)... and fucking liars. |

Member | Mon Oct 25 05:31:55 "Arab looking guy with a big beard and a turban on an airplane," He's probably a Sikh, so no. |
