In Denton, Texas, just a little south of Oklahoma, someone fire bombed a mosque. So I don't feel using humor to point out how ridiculous the over-reaction of some people can be is out of line. I work with a bunch of these bubbas and that was almost exactly their reaction to the Nth degree..go out and find any one who didn't fit the standard 'American' appearance and beat the crap out of them. Heck, they were even jumping on the Mexicans, and blacks with Caribbean accents, cause, you know: "they ain't from around here". ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
