ive known extreme rasists. ive gone out of my way to help them open there mind to the subject, and remove their hatred, but ended up putting as much distance from them as possible. all of them have the same trait. narrow-mindedness. this always seemed to be due to fact that they treat people of other races as in-animate objects. like a picture, for instance... if patrick knew someone that wears a turban, he wouldnt have posted that picture. narrow minded people dont want to know that some people of other cultures have different beliefs, so all they see is a picture. it OBVIOUSLY doesnt help with a extremist leader in america blinding the people to the real truth behind the other motivations of the invasion of iraq.... anyway, wish i had more time to follow this up, but i'll second, whatever @axxxr writes.

Point well taken ... it is indeed a narrow mind that thinks of people as inanimate objects. Dehumanizing your opponent is one of the ways of being able to motivate your side in the act of war against them. Making your opponent non-human makes it easier to kill them. It is a sad but real truth.
However (and you knew my "however" was coming)!
I think of this as an Anti-Bush picture. Not Pro-Bush.
And how do you know I don't know of anyone who wears a turban? Well, you're right ... I don't. So what? You don't know all the cultures of the world, do you? Are you personally acquainted with at least one person from each and every culture and religion on the face of the earth? No - I don't think so! So does that make you insensitive to them? Only as much as you accuse me of being insensitive.
Instead - let's take a look at the picture itself. It's an Anti-Bush picture that shows him as one who is picking all people who wear a turban and marking them all for termination. It's a play on words. Ya know ... if Axxxr had posted this Anti-Bush poster I highly doubt you would have called him a racist and insensitive to those who wear turbans.
It is my opinion that some here need to lighten up and not take themselves so seriously. I am not the keeper of ultimate truth - nor are you.

Oops should I be scared !!!!! that you want to meet me face to face
Again you don't know how to make an argument or to do a debate do you? Try to grow up Axxxr instead of calling people names try to prove your point by making logical arguments. If you took the time to read and understand what I wrote in the previous post you would see I gave enough reasons to make you understand that I am man enough to use my own name as a user name in a public forum and to be in this forum for over an year. I also challenged your credibility for making similar arguments and instead of proving my arguments wrong you are back to name calling. Once again is it running away from arguments and debates what you call manliness in your country? I pity you.

I suggest we all debate ... isn't that what we came here for? And, if your real careful and try real hard ... you might learn something. I know I will. Now don't take this wrong, but not seeing eye to eye is no reason not to debate (hell, there'd be no debate at all if we all saw eye to eye). However, the only good reason not to debate is when you cannot defend your opinion.

I just noticed, that was a very sexist remark by axxxr above does that mean you wouldn't talk to me if I were a woman?

Alright calling people stupid, idiot, ignorant, racist, uncivilised etc are definitely marks of a great civilisation and could you please name that civilisation, as I am ignorant.
So its ok for you to use nic names but you still think I am hiding behind the forums, you are good in making logical assumptions
And finally I don't think education is the only factor which makes a person knowledgable even then for your kind information I am First class graduate in commerce and also have Master degree in Business Adminstration with specialisation in Information Management.

Once again labeling people without doing you homework. If you can show me where I said that then you're right. If not, you're beginning to get real ugly with these false accusations ... calling people stupid, idiots, racists, and liars.
