Cheap terrorists won't even pay a 25 cent toll. I'm sure the Saudi government could have afforded that too.

decoy for what.... obviously nothing happened

nothing yet!

monkeyhead · Post by **monkeyhead** » Sat Sep 14, 2002 9:48 am

if it was a decoy.... it would of been to draw police to them.... then another group of terrorists at about the same time would do whatever elsewhere....... not a few days later...... cause then the decoy would be useless.......

wasnt a decoy....

now if you want to say the story wasnt true.... then ok.....
i overheard it in a conversation in one of my classes

Was this the group of med students that was overheard by a waitress in Georgia?

If so it was a hoax...

They realized the waitress was eavesdropping on them so they started talking terrorists stuff...
They were stopped on I-275 (Alligator Alley) between Naples and Ft Lauderdale, yesterday afternoon.

The police had closed the road (major route to Miami through the Florida Everglades), called bomb squads, etc., only to find out they were just playing with the waitress (so says the Miami Herald....)
They are still in for some big though...

I'm of the opinion that even if they weren't terrorists (which is likely that they weren't), that they should still pay the consequences of yanking the waitress' chain like that (if that's what they did)...
To joke about blowing something up, especially in this day and age, is far from funny and is akin to yelling 'Fire' in a movie theater...

Yes, and apparently they were un-cooperative with the police...

(I heard this info on the radio last night.)

everyone (in the US) thinks anyone arab is a terrorist, so i'm amused by this thread.. and everyone labels the 'evil ones' ... 'those terrorists' like it's a finite group, we don't KNOW where they are or numbers..plus that's such a damn generic word. it's LAME.. the terrorists this, the terrorists that.. PLEASE. it's just a bunch of morons who have a radical view. their religion is irrelevant, they just use it to hide behind and twist it.. just like the kkk or other groups..they're 'terrorists' too.

just my 2c, if u don't like, i don't care.

Amro....not everyone thinks that. I for one do not.

About the story...Amro is probably correct in his assumption that the waitress was being MORE than nosy.

So being young and foolish, these three started having fun with her.

Dumb? Of course.

Was she being a bit racial? Of course.

Did the media overplay it? Of course.

Did Jeb Bush get his two cents in? Of course.

Are we to see more of this? Of course.

Hey Amro,
You should know me by now... A racist I am not (You can ask my wife Rosa if you can speak Spanish, as she can not speak English...

)
I was merely reporting what I had heard on the radio...

OMG, ken, downhill i never meant to imply that i was upset with you..i know u just wanted to give a heads up on my 2c...i'm glad u showed it.. and i know what i said isn't true (the 'everyone' thing.) but i also know that it's almost an accepted stereotype..and yes, those ppl were idiots to do that in this day and age, but my point still stands, and altho what u two said is 100% valid, it doesn't stop the dirty stares i get.. i'm a b average student, working 20-40 hrs/week depending on the week..full time school, work hard..i'd say i'm 99.99999999% american, what's left..if any, egyptian..that's all. i'm stressed and disturbed by this.

EDIT:: and what i mean by the labels...it's like bush or SOMEONE has coined these stupid, generic terms and labeled a group that isn't really clear cut with terms that are too broad for the purpose and it pisses me off.. those words just do not make sense in my mind.. come on..."The Terrorists blah blah" I live in the south, and I hear a lot of uneducated people (not saying I'm a genius here)..say it as if it's a finite thing..they never stop to think of the context of the word..lets accept the supposed definition of anyone who does evil..and then look at the real definition which is muslim radical..now this broad, generic term is supposed to label others too..like the kkk, black panthers, (faracon..sp?) new nation of islam..etc.. but where are those labels? they don't exist..why? because just like after pearl harbor..american japanese were treated poorly..after 9.11, arabs..."Terrorists" will be and have been treated poorly. why were they those labels not applied to internal struggles too? i'm tired now so please forgive any spelling or grammatical errors. I'm a bit emotional about this subject because all i see in the future is more hurt..and our country's definition changing from please help us to if you're not with us, you're against us..and i'm afraid of that because it's wrong. no, our country did NOT plan 911..and it was something that could not have been helped..but on that same token, why make up a finite enemy/group from a mass we don't fully grasp...and then label them with generic BROAD terms that label more, but apply to few.. why are news papers printing bullsh!t about an arab..he goes to help on 911 after the planes crash, he loses his life..and we see "missing or hiding?" as the headline? PLEASE he was more american than the rest of us when he gave his life for this country. i'm really saddened, it isn't by the views of you two, but rather the way that the term 'terrorist' is used and made to have a broad definition, yet apply to only part of what it labels..look for me in the concentration camps when they start.

nope, it's just as much their fault as hers.. it's good that she's looking out for ppl, if they were serious, she would have saved lives..now on the flip side, what idiot would discuss plans like that in public?

Amro

p.s. i hope you weren't moking me, and if you were oh well..

A_old · Post by **A_old** » Sat Sep 14, 2002 7:36 pm

do i make sense on the definition thing, it's really what has me flustered..well that and the fact that everyone is capitalizing on the situation and everyone sees it as ok

Those guys knew the situation here in america especially 2days after the anniversary of the WTC bombings. Nosy are whatever those idiots shoulda known better. I hope the next person that hears some idiot talkin like that does the same thing. How can you be so stupid to say stuff like that when you know people are intune with that sorta thing. I hope when they become doctors they show a bit more smarts.

i don't disagree (at all, they should be fined or something or made to serve community service..etc..), but my point still stands

wanted to add, had they seriously planned something..they should go thru the justice system

Just to clarify:

The lady was NOT the waitress, she was a customer.

Amro: This kind of prejudice will happen in a situation like 9|11. It's a fact of life and nothing can prevent it. People ARE prejudice. They always will be. EVERYONE is prejudice in some way or another, some are just much, much worse than others.

Unfortunately many of the terrorists (not all mind you) involved in 9|11 were of Middle Eastern (ME) descent. That makes "them" easy to spot. That makes it easy for people, and not just white people mind you — I've observed people of ALL races and creeds do this — to say, "Oh look. There's one," when they see a person of ME descent.

When I was in Church on 9/11/01 crying and praying and fearing for my country and my life, a voice came into my head (We can call it God or whatever suits the members of the thread) that said to me, "We must be especially kind to the arab community during threse times."

And I have tried to do that. To go out of my way to say hello and to be kind. Kind of opposite-prejudice in a way I guess.

Note: Please forgive me if my Middle-Eastern descent classification is improper. I know many classes of people are ultra-sensitive to these terms and I am trying to be polite and PC here. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyway, I just thought I'd toss that on the discussion plate to gnaw on a bit.

Ummm...Brembo has not posted here...

Anyway, I don't see basic human prejudice changing at all. In fact, part of the hate within the terrorists themselves was intense prejudice against white Americans. It definitely is not right, but I don't see it changing drastically. Just ask an American Indian, or an African American. The prejudice is still there, it's just underlying. Sleeping if you will. And it's a two-way street.

I really wanted to stay out of this, because its not my thing to sit there and stare at someone who has wronged, and point the finger... but there is going to be a change and its gradually making its turn.. I'm not ready for it and neither are you.
Martial Law.
Scary as it seems.. it really would make things more safer.. but people who are faithful the USA would have no problems dealing with it.. Terrorists would be gone, and Peace In the USA would be relevent.
My Advice to Terrorists.
Go Home!

yes Martial Law is safer. As for Iraqis.. they are only human like you and I ( excluding the freedom..). But let them free as we they would actually be just as comfortable to say whatever they want, write whatever they want, and piss off whoever they want. But, since they are Under the Protection of "Saddam" and lead to believe that "Saddam" is There Leader the more they are scared of banishing "Saddam".. But they are really more safe in their country than we are.. furthermore, the iraqi common people/peasants can't just walk out and kill someone makes them much more safer within their own country. Yes its true.

Why are We Americans constantly getting involved with Foriegn affairs? Why are we the way we are?

I'm considering the pretenses of your last post amro. I'm mislead by your approach to make your point.
I'll make mine now.
Often there is going to be cases of false judgement, but since thats one thing your good at. I'll look past your reply. No Offense.. but you're looking past things here too.

A_old · Post by **A_old** » Sun Sep 15, 2002 1:37 am

uhh i used to live there and most of the people don't like saddam, they're forced into it. he's a murderer. he kills his own people. heh. martial law..i'm still amused. as for why we're in foreign affairs, it's because we learned what happens when we try to stay out back in the world wars.. how am i misleading? and you shouldn't talk about cases of false judgement if you don't know what it's like to be judged that way. it was already stated earlier in the thread that humans will be humans and prejudgements will always exist. this doesn't, however, make it correct or ok in anyway to make these sorts of judgements...and that's why i posted, to let others see both sides. i'm just as much american as anyone else..and i support my country as much as the next, so why shouldn't i be treated that way? ever had a death threat to your home at 1 am? try 4 of them..finally, i never claimed to be perfect or know the perfect solution to world peace, or any sort of peace for that matter...however, i don't think we'll ever make it if we have people thinking the best way to run a govt is to scare people into submission..martial law..this also goes with looking past things..meaning of course i will, it isn't on purpose, like you said, i'm only human..like you..like the iraqis, saudis, egyptians..japanese, (insert your favorite group here).. my point above still stands as no one has presented a logical arguement against it. the terms are too broad and basically set us (americans) aside from the world..if you aren't with us, you're against us..which is wrong since under our own constitution..we don't force our beliefs, opinions, religion, etc...on others..why shouldn't we follow our own rules when dealing with those outside our country too..now saddam has to go, so war is the only way..and he's a smart one (bastard as he is)..and he's moving his armies into the cities..so civilian deaths are impossible to avoid..but labeling his entire country 'terrorists' is wrong..they don't know better than what is forced into them. oh, and the term is still lame and ill placed IMHO.. it's amazing that in past struggles it was never used..school shootings, oaklahoma city, waco...but now it's brought out..maybe i'm a little idealistic..but hey..that's just me, i don't like death.

edit: for much of our world, ignorance is bliss. this isn't pointed at the people in this thread, but more as a general comment exactly as stated.
