This. Sadly yet seriously.....This..flare09 said:That further proves my point on how a lot of religious people are insane.
This is why I'm not religious. That, and I don't think God needs me to kiss his ass day in, day out.scifidownbeat said:Some are, that is true.flare09 said:That further proves my point on how a lot of religious people are insane.
AND HOW
did you get a Duke Nukem badge?
Just about every non-religious democrat I have ever known wants the exact same thing.ZehGeek said:Religious people screw up most things because they want EVERYONE under THERE way of life. >_>
If that happens the riots will burn most major American cities to the ground. Remember Rodney King? Remember the riots that ensued over a self admitted drunk crack head getting beaten by some cops? It was more than just LA that went up in smoke. Now try to imagine what happens if Obama gets shot and killed.Godofgame67 said:I honestly would not be surprised if we end up with another JFK on our hands in the near future.
I hope we don't but it could happen. I would not put it past this man.
What had happened with Rodney King was the culmination of police all over America abusing minorities. It wasn't just a LAPD problem, it was blanket racism and it was happening for decades. An assassination attempt against the president is a little different.axia777 said:If that happens the riots will burn most major American cities to the ground. Remember Rodney King?

You are missing my point entirely. Do you think that anger against unjust police against Africa-Americans is not still there? DO you think that anger over blatant racism that still exists today is still not there in the African America communities? Do you think all these issues and problems have just gone away? Again, you missed my point entirely.paypuh said:What had happened with Rodney King was the culmination of police all over America abusing minorities.

Race relations right now are probably the best they have ever been in the entire history of America. The fact that we have a black (kind of) president kinda proves that. Do I have outline how this country started or how long blacks went without the right to vote? If you think it can get any better than it is, I think you should look at why hate crimes happen. People aren't just born racist.axia777 said:You are missing my point entirely. Do you think that anger against unjust police against Africa-Americans is not still there?

Yes, I understand that. But the social consequences of a white President and a Black one being assassinated are going to be vastly different no matter how you try to spin it. It is a simple fact.paypuh said:Race relations right now are probably the best they have ever been in the entire history of America.

Besides, I already posted earlier 14 of our 44 presidents have had someone try or succeed in assassinating them. Whether it's because of opposing views, skin color, whatever, crazy people will always find a reason to do crazy shit. It doesn't represent the ideals of the general populace.
But you're assumung the potential shooter will be white. What if they aren't?axia777 said:Yes, I understand that.

Yah right. Why would anyone but a white racist adult male shoot Obama? Please tell me this.paypuh said:But you're assuming the potential shooter will be white.

But didn't you hear? Religion is about peace and love for all mankind. This man, being a pastor is the most religious of all men, aside from the pope who advises against condoms to control aids and sacks priests who let homosexuals worship in their parishes.flare09 said:That further proves my point on how a lot of religious people are insane.
I think it would be a good idea if people followed it
Yes, and because Ted Bundy existed it means that everyone is a mass murderer.flare09 said:That further proves my point on how a lot of religious people are insane.
Why have other presidents been shot? Over political views. While there is a high probability if someone were to attempt to assassinate Obama it would probably be for racial reasons, I hope you understand not every black person voted for the man. And certainly you don't believe he is loved and revered by every single person in every country he visits.axia777 said:Yah right. Why would anyone but a white racist adult male shoot Obama?
