Why discuss it? It's not a remotely applicable analogy. It would be a more appropriate analogy if each state had different interpretations of the constitution, different interpretations of federal laws and each acted independently on an international level.
I can't ignore your first half dozen posts with such zingers as "Muslims aren't capable of a non-violent lifestyle" and "the common practice of Muslims seems to be violent." Refine and rewrite your post as many times as you want, but what you really mean by it is clear as day. Here's a test. - Close your eyes (after you finish reading ;-) - Picture a Muslim and open your eyes. If you pictured a brown guy with a wiry beard and a turban you probably don't understand much about Islam. If he had a belt full of explosives you lose an extra 10 points. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:288620 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
