So, if you get pulled over by a police officer for a traffic violation you will not answer any of his questions unless you have your lawyer with you?
Either a) you are the world's best driver (and are not afraid of being pulled over) or b) you have more free time than this guy. 'Granted for every bad or corrupt cop we have there are probably 10 or 15 good ones, but you have no way of telling which you're dealing with till it's too late.' Imagine if, in the previous sentence, you substituted the word 'cop' with 'muslim', 'african-american', 'hispanic', 'italian' or any other word used to describe any other group of people. I guess 'innocent until proven guilty' only covers those who are suspected of having committed a crime but not those who would arrest those suspects? Funny how it seems OK to judge an entire group of people based on the words and actions of a few for some groups, like law enforcement and Tea Party members, but not for other groups, like those who want to build an Islam cultural center and mosque near Ground Zero. The hypocrisy of those on this list (including from myself at times) would be funny were it not so sad.

Honestly I'd do the same as this guy did. > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:327412 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
