Shooting at art festival in Texas

[realibrad]

sigh..
Ya ok..and some of the bigger things to worry about are getting hit by lighting or the huge risk of falling down the stairs

Eating too much, slipping in the shower, Taylor Swift writing a song about you, ect.

These are all much more likely to happen, and I agree that we should focus on those a lot more. But, lets not misrepresent the facts of things either. Terrorism is a threat that is very unlikely. Because of that, even if Muslims made up 100% of the terrorists, its still very unlikely it would effect you.

Your far more likely to get killed from an American right wing terrorist (not including Muslims)
Especially if you are Muslim or Jewish or Black, so the more RWT's that kill Muslims lessen your chances of being killed by a Muslims terrorist
The more Jews that get killed by RWT's will inspire more Jewish terror groups to kill RWT's
Blacks are far more likely to be killed by police though so there's that

Yes, all of that is true. But to say that Muslims are like any other religion in terms of terrorism is incorrect. When you compare Muslims to other religions in the US, you see the numbers that show that Muslims are more likely to be a terrorist than other religions.

As you said before, you are not likely to know a Muslim terrorist living in North America. That does not mean that there is not a statistical significance for Muslim terrorist.

I am not advocating fear of Muslims, just making an empirical critique of your statement long ago at this point.

Why are you fantasizing about the size of my penis? Maybe you need a hobby, perhaps computer gaming?

You assume I'm a homophobe, but that's just you projecting. I guess the truth finally comes out.

The only person doing any assuming is you. I simply asked why you were fantasizing about the size of my penis.
