Toatally agree with you Tahir. That is one reason that I am amazed that Italians have such a bad relationship with the Black Community in the New York / New Jersey area. I always thought we were on the same side. Then you see how bad the blood is between Blacks and Koreans in California and it's the same shit - just need someone to feel superior to.
:thumbs:

Sad, but true.

That is the bomb, Bozi.



Now what would seal the deal is if SKY offered a red button that would send electrical shocks to Tommy Smyth's eyelids and genitals on the air.



Your logic presupposes that immigrants don't have any competitive nature amongst themselves. It presumes that immigrants, as defined by their collective experience, are incapable of racial, ethnic, or religious intolerances -- whether from their native lands or in their adopted ones.

That, sir, is something I really don't understand. Just because you put some greasy farmer with a funny accent on a boat and send him to a foreign country doesn't prevent him or cure him from his racism.



Growing up on the South Side of Chicago, while there's a very large black population, you had a lot of the locals wearing red "South Side Italian" or green "South Side Irish" jackets like they were ready for a dancing rumble in West Side Story. Fact.



There's examples of this kind of "friends through collective experience" behavior when it came to a lot of Jewish support for civil rights in this country in the 1960s. But today a lot of that seems long gone. That chumminess based on "collective oppression" is definitely a thing of the past.

The norm is more to what I stated above. People sharing a collective experience does not de facto remove their prejudices. At least that's what's been proven in practice as a general rule.

That said, I think the Muslims in this country are incredibly pivotal to what defines this country -- at least at this very moment. One of America's greatest strengths is that it's more about an idea than about what family you were born in. That's certainly a flawed argument, but it's about as true here as it is anywhere in the world. What makes American Muslims pivotal is that the fate of the country, as a free republic as I see it, rests on the notion of Muslims making their home here based on this "idea" and internal support for this idea. Or does the idea unravel and fall apart, because America and its relationships with more immigrants and minorities falls apart by instead defining itself on bloodlines, etc.

The best counter to radical Islam against the West is in proving that it isn't a question about Islam at all, really.
I think Muslims will face problems for a long time to come with the rest. People are scared of people that are different and those that aren't willing to change.

If you look at all the people that have emigrated to Europe or America, they've largely assimilated in with society, largely due to the fact that there was nothing "stopping" them. Muslims are prohibited from doing pretty much everything that others regard as normal. If George and I can't go down the street and grab a beer, he's going to think I'm weird. If my daughter can't date Jason from her high school people or if my wife has to go out with a 'cloth' over her head, they're oppressed.

Little things like that is something people aren't used to. It makes it really hard for Muslims to assimilate into foreign societies. You as a black person, Irish, Italian, Polish, Chinese, etc. don't have these 'obstacles.'

I disagree. Sure, you can point to a woman's chador or five adhans a day in Dearborn, MI coming from a clock tower. But how weird is it for Central Americans who not only don't speak the same language, they survive more in enclaves where they don't have to. Which mirrors a lot of the Chinese in America from a century ago -- and more Vietnamese and Korean today.

I don't see Muslims from the Middle East or Pakistan being any more or less difficult to assimilate. Fact is a lot of assimilation in this country has only gone so far. But one of the primary assimilation factors is generational -- growing up in the culture and having greater economic access that comes with it. Being Muslim doesn't really change that.

5 wanks in one day? That is impossible. Two months you were telling your doctor, "I don't have erectile dysfunction, I'm just married to an ugly woman."
In that case, a few slams in the car door will at least put you out of action for a while as a good excuse. It's kinda like firing a few rounds into your shoulder for your ticket out of Iraq.

So Cobolli Gigli called me tonight and told me I'm like a submarine: long, hard, and capable of launching torpedoes in the heat of battle.
