UK jihadis in court in plot to ‘blow up Downing Street gates and kill Theresa May’

Eighty percent? That seemed to be the claim by Trump but not supported independently …as is often the case. Looking at the DOJ website i see the following ” from 1994 to 2015 white on white violence was down 79%, black on black 78% They also go into some detail as there is not just black and white but records might include Hispanic, Mixed race, Indian etc
Certainly some of the stand out cases i US were certainly by whites, Las Vegas , Oklahoma bombing etc. And certainly America overall has the highest rate by far. I’m not sure of the racial make up of the Vincennes crew but the captain responsible ,Capt Will Rogers, was white,as i think was Lt Calley. .
There are 1.2 5 billion Roam Catholics where do you lump them if not Christian? And what would e the definition of christian that doesn’t include Catholics?
I recall that Muslims share our distaste of idol worship ,

I don’t have any bias towards any of them,Muslims with a crescent or Christian with a cross, or jews with a star [ as well] Catholics probably have th best architecture, certainly beats Southern Baptists hands down. and the crescent flag [ which is not specifically a flag of Islam, justt used by some, and the Stars and stripes, All just logos.
I wonder who “attributes the 80% and what that’s based on . If so it seems to let Mexicans off the hook.
My point? maybe that Americans as a whole are vastly more likely to shoot each other than have a terrorist kill them and vastly more likely than any other 1 st world country. I wonder if there are any catholics reading this with an opinion on the claim of idol worship.
Is idol worship one of the great problems the world faces today ?
And of course the Royal Commissions findings regarding child molestation weren’t confined to Catholics. Jews, Salvationists and Episcopalians were doing their fair share of abusing. so what is the consensus here [including Pam, Are blacks in America a bigger risk than Muslim
And does America have a plan to rid the planet of 2.5 billion Muslims? It’ll would be a big job, and unpopular.

Yep you can relax it was only 1.8 billion in 2015, and will surpass Christians this century.
So t’s all OK but maybe practice up on your Allah Akbahs in case you need them one day.
Of course there are 1.2 billion Catholics so if the idol worshippers get together [ and Pam seems worried about the Pope making conciliatory noises about Islam] , that will put you in a very small minority.Maybe learn some Hail Mary’s and Our Fathers too. – good luck , enjoy.

Achie, I’m getting a hint you don’t like Muslims. It’s possible the feeling is mutual
At a top guess there are only about 16 million Jews and a lot less adherents in the KKK. So either way I wouldn’t say anything rash about them.
And I’d suggest sending Pam a Xmas card might be inappropriate.’çause I know you don’t like to offend.

Yes wouldn’t it be shocking if you’d sent a card to a muslim and got a nice resonse too. It doesn’t bear thinking about.

But it’s interesting for me to get an insight into the alien inds of foreigners. Just say, for example, you were given a new house but you had to allocate the position of the neighbours houses in your street. From nearest to farthest how would you place…
An Irish Roman Catholic family, replete with bleeding heart pics and statues of Mary.
A traitorous pinko anti[ american left leaning socialist
A Godless Russian Communist
And Islamic dusky looking foreign family
An Aryan Bikie Gang clubhouse.
A family of Hassidic orthodox jews where the women aren’t allowed to make any contact like shaking hands with you, lest this lead to { gasp] sex]
A Democrat congressman
A family of black folk possibly descendants of those uppity ones from Little Rock who would probably cll you “dood”
A K k Klansman * delete this if you already do live near or with one.
A pair of lesbian feminists especially ones that don’t shave under their arms

This should be a place of interesting street parties depending on how well your arranging goes.

And speaking of substances , you may have forgotten your amnesia pills as I haven’t seen a mention of VIncennes. But then it may be included on Donald’s list of words that must never to be used as I have never found an American who will mention it.

If you don’t wish to say Merry Xmas to a Muslim you could just say “Bah Humbug”

Well I must confess that like your Jesus, I have never been a landlord. But in the industry I was in , I had a few Muslim customers that were polite and agreeable to meet and talk to. I also had a few Jews, unfortunately the Orthodox ones were pushy and arrogant, and this feeling was shared in the industry, The ones from NY were the worst.
However American religion is a source of amusement for the rest of the world. That and mass shootings seem to be the source of the “Önly in America” expression.
I took a wild guess that you may be some sort of evangelical. Either the sort that wants a war in Israel to bring on a 2nd coming or a rapturist
The rapturists are fascinating . Of course the idea has more holes in it than one of Pam’s stories.
If, as we know,heaven is located directly above America, then American rapturists will fly straight up, the European ones will fly sideways , but Australian ans New Zealanders will need to go down through 7000 miles of earth first. And then, if there’s only 5000 places available [ or is it 500,perhaps you will know], then are the places reserved or is it a first come first served basis.? { I hope that it happens at a stop light with a rapturist Ferrari drivers whisked away leaving me to look after his car]
I mean do all the would be rapturists fly off together, like sperm racing for ova?, If so Heaven will be predominantly Klansmen as their pointed robes, being aerodynamically more efficient will give them a Darwinian advantage . ironic for the Creationists I suppose.

Well .well ,three Vincennes when one may have been too many . I thought my mention of the captains name ,Will Rogers, would single out the one that killed 290 men, women children and baby civilians
But as i may have said, “Vincennes” might be on Donald’s list of words never to be spoken.

But if you wish , you may comment without mentioning the name.

Your picture , your famous Achy

How could that Ed ever be as successful and rich as Archy, And so many of the girls he has, all waiting to marry him already. But he looks after his mama, and he’s going to be a doctor , and a lawyer too, so successful. and that dreadful photograph , I’m sure that couldn’t be him with the flag. he’s not a kapo, like that awful Uncle Benny was, But of course he was on his fathers’s side, good for nothinks all of them., I mean, yes it looks a lot like Archy but that was his bar mitzvah day and how could he march after the rabbi bit off his schmuck. It would have been Uncle Benny.definite.
