Given there is no legitimate source for this thread, I'm sure it will be debunked soon enough.

snopes probably won't get it until it becomes a forwarded email.

Thanks, Sagran.

And there must be more to the story, if it is a story. Maybe fifty cars each week clogging the streets and causing issues with emergency vehicle access or something.

My neighbor has bible study in her house every Wed. and there is no prob. I've even offered my driveway, although I don't share her beliefs.

Oh, yeah...silly me...Iraq didn't attack us. How could I forget? But, wait, neither did Afghanistan. Oh, I'm so confused!

But Muslim terrorists did. And they don't call any single country "home".

So, I guess we should have just shrugged if off as an isolated incident, huh? yeah, that would make a lot of sense, wouldn't it?

Tell me: Just where do you stand on national defense?

This is the problem with Obama; he thinks like you and a few others on this Forum. We're in serious trouble, and I sincerely believe that it is only a matter of a short time before we are attacked again. Only this time we don't have a "George W. Bush" in the White House to make the tough calls. We have a pansy arsed effeminate lover of all our enemies, who thinks that if we're "nice", they won't attack us.

This man we currently call "president" has no understanding whatsoever about radical Islam (though having been raised as a Muslim, he should). Thus, Obama is the most dangerous president this country has ever elected. This man never should have been allowed to set foot in the Oval office. He is nothing less than an absolute unmitigated idiot.
Sidestepping your disconnected, self-serving hysteriafest, capitalists have killed millions around the world and will continue to kill in quest of money. I know you and the other poster are thinking of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin, the Bolshies, Fidel. They wiped out everyone who was their opposition and then some, duh of course. If Cuba hadnt been exploited for centuries by capitalists the need for a Fidel to protect the people wouldnt have arisen. Same with Russia; China and Cambodia are slightly different stories. In any case all of them were killing directly to establish a state. Capitalism's killings are a side effect of acquisition and exploitation which will continue as long as greed is on the earth. It doesnt stop. See vulture funds, disaster capitalism and so on for present day effects and any history of imperialism for earlier examples.

Understand, or not?

Can't see where a bible study group is any different from a book club.

Well said!
And to add Clinton did pretty much ignore them when they attacked us on our soil and look where that led our country!
