How about Muslim terrorists, if they are terrorists who happen to be Muslim. Sort of like Christian terrorists, Sikh terrorists if they happen to be terrorists. Not that complicated really, and it might just save terror being visited on people who happen to be, say Muslim, who are not terrorists.

I'm not much into useless acts of desperation. If sitting around shooting fish in a barrel entertains you....'ave at 'er. I do. You're the one who seems to have a problem with it.

I guess when all someone has in mind is to disparage Muslim's and try to make them all out to be terrorists, the discussion will never be over. But the redundancy makes it fairly easy to walk away from.

It never occurred to me to call a Muslim who isn't a terrorist a Muslim terrorist.

Bob Macadoo Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 ....it only bothers me as it doesn't promote any discussion......just more chanting from armchair marines.

In fact, it almost never stops.
Bob Macadoo Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 ....that is an interesting angle that could be debated. Does our 24 news hour cycle lifestyle promote and sensationalize islamic terrorists more than any ISIS facebook account ever hope for? 9 minutes ago, bush_cheney2004 said: No...it remains a very popular topic.

You have a better chance being killed by a falling object than by a Muslim terrorist, but some are hiding under their beds worried about the latter.

If someone I knew was killed by a falling object, it wouldn't bother me if they identified the object. Of course, if they were hiding under their bed, they'd probably get away with a bruise or two.

Bob Macadoo Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) ....if you mean the same 4 phrases reused in multiple permutations/combinations......then yes great deal. Kinda like Trumps "great deals". Rue/Argus wonder why I don't take this topic seriously and give it flippant commentary......its likely 'cause that's all it deserves. 11 minutes ago, bcsapper said: Looking at this site it seems to have promoted a great deal of discussion.

You are under no obligation to take anything seriously. I only care about whether I agree with you or not.

It wouldn't surprise me if a falling object had religion. They are dumb, after all. As for deadly ones, I'd stick to writing about those. I'm not interested in those that make it all the way to the ground. Unless they bounce. There could be a threat.
bush_cheney2004 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) How about "alt-Muslim" or "alt-Islamic" terrorists ? Lefties seem to like that kind of language construct to suit their own ideology. Edited May 25, 2017 by bush_cheney2004 Economics trumps Virtue.

bush_cheney2004 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 The "Islamophobia" label and censorship are taking serious hits after the RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORIST attack in Manchester. Maybe Justin Trudeau can save that form of denial...at least in Canada. But he will have to ban foreign media to do it. Economics trumps Virtue.
