I've been offended at some of the trash put on television...

I guess I don't get what is so offensive :wacko:

 

 

Oh I don't know..using perhaps the greatest tragedy of this country for a racist filled hate cartoon?

 

Not all middle easterners are terrorists. In fact, I've met some pretty great people from Afgan and Syria via my job and I can tell you with a certainty, they would be very offended as well.

 

Nice way to get racism to our kids early!! :tup:

Do they refer to themselves as being middle easterners? I'm curious.

The people I have met? No they refer to there country of origin. It's kinda weird though, some seems to think that our states are seperate countries so instead of using "Americans" they will call you whatever state you are from. I am the "californian from America" :wacko:

 

So I guess your wondering if they consider themselves "middle easterners" as we view ourselves as "Americans". To some degree yes...although I suppose that term is just my lazy way of describing there origin. Certainly not "racist" if that is what your implying or questioning.

if you are serious, you are out of your gourd. I see nothing remotely controvertial in that video. nothing even close to an implication that all middle easterners are terrorists. are we watching the same video? :tup:

:lol: I havn't been told I'm out of my gourd in quite some time. That made me LOL ... thanks

 

If you can honestly tell me you would not only let your children watch this junk, but encourage them to do so...well maybe I'm off base. Personally, I don't like the idea of using 9-11 as an instructional cartoon aimed specifically at the youth. :wacko:
