FYI Te-Nehisi Coates just won a MacArthur Genius grant. Guy is amazing.
This is going to help a lot.
Its about time people who want to live in Western countries are required to renounce their medieval cults as a condition of entry. By this I mean Islam, Judaism and Christianity for starters.
http://www.theaustralian.com.au/in-dept … e39211205aolice are trying to find possible links between radical elements and the lone teenage gunman who shot dead father-of-two accountant Curtis Cheng, who had worked in the NSW Police finance department for 17 years, on Friday before being killed himself.
The 15-year-old boy of Iraqi-Kurdish background and born in Iran has been identified as Farhad Khalil Mohammad Jabar of North Parramatta.
The actions of the boy outside the Police State Crime Command in the western suburb of Parramatta were linked to terrorism, police said.
NSW Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione, at a joint conference on Saturday with Premier Mike Baird, said Australia was constantly working to find a solution to the radicalisation of teenagers.
Mr Scipione said finding an answer to teenage radicalisation was “the global question at the moment”. Meanwhile details of the shootings emerged late on Saturday.

Fuck Israel
And who exactly is going to terminate their political career by pushing for the abolition of the freedom of religion? Forcing everyone into the homogeneous, insufferable mold of obnoxious modern atheism is hardly better than forced conversion to Islam.Dilbert_X wrote:

Besides, it wouldn't work. Worship would just go underground like it always has.

Calling for the banning of Islam and Muslims actually is a popular idea among the right wing in America. Ben Carson went up in the polls when he said he wouldn't vote for a Muslim president. I don't think you would throw away your career if you made such a statement.

Fascinating contribution, guys. Thank you.

Great, then it won't be part of public life, politicians won't have to pander to them, we won't have to worry if they're offended, if they're caught they can be deported - its win all round.Besides, it wouldn't work. Worship would just go underground like it always has.

You can start to piece together people's views on other things by how vehemently they defend Christopher Columbus. It is very easy to just acknowledge he wasn't a good man. The native Americans won't get their land back or anything else if you do.
In any case, I think we should compromise and rename today "explorers day". We can celebrate people like Lewis and Clark, the arctic explorers, astronauts, NASA, ocean divers, etc.

They could just be Italian. Columbus Day is basically Italian-American Day.SuperJail Warden wrote:

columbus may have been an asshole, but he helped create some great episodes of the sopranos, so for that i forgive him his sins.

If someone said they wanted Columbus day to remain unchanged because it celebrates their Italian heritage, I would be more than fine with that. If they want the day to celebrate their European heritage, fine with that too. Celebrate white heritage, accepted also with reservations.Jay wrote:

But if you feel the need to defend the day because Columbus/Explorers/Europeans/White people brought 'literacy, science, technology, medicine, civilization' etc. to 'savages' who were underdeveloped and weren't using the land anyway or deserved to lose it, I am going to file you down as either pig ignorant or a little racist. Not the good type of racist either.
oh, right. I forgot that what goes on in NYC is indicative of the collective population's general feeling about Columbus Day.Jay wrote:

Well, the only discussion I have about this subject or see is on the internet. Do you think I go to the Columbus day parade and argue with Italians?
