It would also go Boom.

That's only because they don't like using tear gas.

Not likely, considering the situation with Muslims in Paris. Isn't that the whole point of the thread?

Germany had a somewhat similar problem with Turkish Guest Workers - Integration - But for decades after the War they could not gain Citizenship even when born in Germany of a Guest Worker.

I am not referring to the Police - Again late for the Parade. This is getting to be a habit -Perhaps i should chat with Eagle Smack and we can set up a regime for you.
That guy is not the police. He is the Norwegian mass murderer, Anders Breivik.

Northern Ontario,
Army? ARMY!

That is R. Lee Emry in Full Metal Jacket. He is playing a Marine Drill Instructor which he was one in real life before he started acting. He did the whole Parris Island scene without a script and that is probably the most accurate depiction of USMC Basic Training you'll see in Hollywood.

He doesn't do a bad psychiatrist either:smile:

I wonder if people can comment on this without reference to what they think Muslims would do.

Not likely, considering that the implied point of the initial post was "See!!! Christians are intolerant and threatening too!"

Talk about non-news!

I pulled worse pranks in junior high school

Much worse.

This brings me back to high school and a timed stink bomb involving a lit cigarette, crystalized sulfur and just enough saltpeter to help the burn...not enough to blow.......
That classroom smelled even the next day.

It's official CC policy to move the goal posts to Muslims, whenever there is something negative about christians or jews.

You should get with the program, muslim lover.

Really? Because quite often when the thread topic is Islam, we get posts that try to equate Christianity to Islam in one way or another. That's the true definition of moving the goals posts. We have a clear difference between Islam and several religions let alone Christianity, and some people like yourself keep trying to move the goals posts closer together!

Time and time again, whether comparing the Bible and quran, actions, or current preached messages, the difference between Islam and Christianity has been proven. Even in this thread the difference is clear. The organizer of the protest in Paris said "Our mission is to spread the word about this performance and to organise a response." Even though they acted inappropriately, they don't wish to suppress free speech. Not the case with some Muslims, they do, and their tactics of intimidation work:

There's a difference between one faith based on legend and another faith based on legend, true. Just like there's a difference between a hamburger and a cheesburger.

This is true as well.

The forum has a lot of trouble sticking to the context of the topic when it comes to religion.
