"I saw a person come straight at me with a long knife and I ran away with everyone," he said, adding that people who were slower were severely injured.
If they take away guns, lunatics will use knives. If they take away knives, lunatics will use bats. If they take away bats, lunatics will use rocks. It's a never ending circle jerk of control, over safety.

A Chinese terrorist group attacks Chinese people and most of the comments on that site are anti-American? How moderate and full of reason they are.

We have that here in the US (somebody with a semi auto to stop the attack in the first placeh) yet people are shot to death by crazed people who get their hands on semi autos.

Actually gun regulations work very well in those countries where guns are tightly regulated. That would include China.

All countries compared for Crime > Murders with firearms

Got anything about those suicide bombers and stoning women you made reference to?
With regards to the rules in Dubai, from what I've read while Dubai is more liberal than other Islamic nations that doesn't mean they still don't have fairly strict rules. Just go to google and search for 'Dubai laws tourists' or other variations of that and see how many results you get about the Do's and Don'ts when visiting Dubai. Are you telling me all those websites are incorrect and I can kiss and makeout with my girlfriend etc the same as I can do in any western country without any fear of getting into trouble?

Also with regards to suicide bombings/stonings here you go:

Just happened today:

Islamabad court suicide attack strikes terrorism blow in Pakistani capital | World news | The Guardian

Some more:

Fear grips Beirut suburbs after sixth suicide bombing in four months | World news | theguardian.com

And another:

Iraq: Suicide bombing tutor kills himself and 20 pupils in training camp gaffe | euronews,

And another:

Suicide car bomb kills at least 10 in Somali capital | Reuters

And another:

Two NATO contractors killed in Kabul suicide attack - The Hindu


Here's a stoning:

Pakistani couple stoned to death for adultery; six arrested | Reuters

And another. Girl stoned to death for having a Facebook account:

Girl 'stoned to death by Syrian fundamentalists for having a FACEBOOK account' | Mail Online

So tell me again how Muslims are peaceful when there's been so many suicide bombings in even the last month or two?? And tell me again why we should respect a religion and the people who follow it when even minor offenses can lead to death?

First, if you go to a foreign country, learn the laws. If you don't like the laws of that country, don't go there.
You see I have NO PROBLEM WITH THIS. If you visit or choose to live in a foreign country, then I agree live by their rules and customs. BUT the problem is MUSLIMS DON'T DO THIS. They expect YOU to respect their religion and their beliefs even above the laws, customs and rules of the nation they settle in. THAT'S the problem I have with Muslims and why they're such hypocrites.

If you go to an Islamic nation you are expected to follow their rules. Fine. But if your nation is kind enough to take in Muslim immigrants, well damn you better be ready to respect their religion and their beliefs NO MATTER WHAT. And you better be ready for Muslims to follow their religion no matter what even if they contradict or don't agree with your beliefs and customs because they couldn't care less. Their religion trumps all and if you disagree you will get a fight on your hands, plain and simple.

Just think of the whole hijab/niqab issue. Even though most in the west don't agree with it, we're FORCED to tolerate it because Muslims won't bend on such a simple issue as women showing their faces in public. You yourself said if you don't like the laws of the country, don't go there. So tell me why Muslims who seem to dislike many western laws, STILL want to move there and enjoy all the benefits of living in a modern, mostly peaceful society without integrating and altering their customs at all to fit their new home country?

If they refuse to make the effort to integrate and adapt to their new home country that they're lucky enough to settle in, then why won't don't get GET THE EFF OUT and go back to their craphole countries that they ran from in the first place? If westerners can't adapt or agree with Islamic rules, we leave, BUT if Muslims can't adapt or agree with western rules, its WE who must adapt to THEM instead of the opposite. Please tell me how this is fair??
