>>>>>>>Exactly. Didn't you call the sheriff in Arizona racist for going after illegals in a previous msg?
>>>>>>
>>>>>>Yes I did. You have to consider how he's handling it though. He will pick a Hispanic neighborhood then on one day he will send 100's of cops there to harass all the residents...also known as "racial profiling". I remember reading about the wedding he ruined by doing something like this. Anyway I suppose he probably means well on this subject - but he really abuses his office a lot of other ways which is why he's under a federal investigation.

>>>>I'm afraid our hippie friend just doesn't get it. He is probably not in favor of questioning muslims who ride airplanes either. Sheriff Arpaio raids hispanic neighborhoods because that's where the illegals live. I don't understand the resistence to protecting our borders. The left wants to open our borders to everyone, while most other countries will shoot you down like a dog for crossing their borders....
>>>
>>>Hey I'm all for protecting borders - but I'm against the cops flooding an entire neighborhood just because it's hispanic. That is a dangerous thing to start doing and seems like there is something in the constitution about that....
>>>As far as questioning muslims just because they want to get on a plane? Well if there should happen to be a reason to question them other than their religious beliefs then go ahead....but you simply can't target an individual based on their religon. If they're doing what those idiots did last year (standing in the airport making a scene screaming "hail allah" wearing full muslim garb) then duh they're acting fishy so yeah question them. Those clowns were just trying to come up with a way to attempt to sue the airline for not letting them on the plane..ha. If their passports and travel history reflects visits to terroist countries then sure check them out closer...but dude you have to have a reason other than their religion.
>>
>>Their religion is the reason they are killing everyone including themselves. I realize it isn't politically correct to say we are at war with Islam, but we are. The fact that far too many people stick their heads in the sand and think happy thoughts doesn't change it.
>>
>>Wait for them to blow the plane or the school or the building or the market or kidnap and behead aid workers, and then whine and investigate why it happened and try to blame the people who have their hands tied so they can't do anything. That'll work.

>I suppose I see where you're coming from. I question if it's Islam itself or the Islamic extremist though. I would hope that Homeland Security would be on top of things enough too....errrr well never mind...hahaha

try state school system, not madrrassas:

snippet:

“The teachers tell us that India and the British are our enemies,” Fatma says. “They are killing Muslims. They are behind the bomb blasts. I do not know much about America, but generally people do not like America, and they can never be our friends.”

Rabina Saigel is an academic who’s studied public school textbooks for years and found that they have quietly been feeding extremism.

“I feel that a great deal of the ideology that we think madrassas are producing is in fact being produced in state schools,” she says. “And I say that it's the biggest madrassa because it has the widest outreach. It reaches every town, village, and small hamlet. It reaches every nook and cranny of the country.”

At the Ministry of Education’s curriculum wing, the staff has been working on removing the militaristic tone of the curriculum. But the textbooks still include passages like these: “For the past three centuries the Europeans have been working to subjugate the countries of the Muslim world” and “The Christians and Europeans were not happy to see the Muslims flourishing in life. They were always looking for opportunities to take possession of territories under the Muslims.”
