Re: Sean Taylor Shot at Home
[ QUOTE ]
It's sort of like the few voices inside Islamic culture that have the guts to rail against extremists hijacking their religion [/ QUOTE ] don't want to derail this thread at all but i found that pretty offensive. 99.99% of muslims are against the actions of these extremists. go to any mosque, or muslim rally and you will hear this for yourself. the problem is the american media doesn't put this stuff out there for you to see. i would not expect such an ignorant comment from you suzzer. anyways, back to the thread i agree wtf was ST still doing living in MIA? bottom line is that mia is just not a safe area. and why is he not in those gated communities in miami where gloria estefan and shaq live? or somewhere gated in coconut grove? i just don't understand why someone so high profile with enemies would live in a expensive 'regular' neighborhood. also, i remember when whitlock was first coming up and was writing for the ann arbor news covering the univ of mich and the fab 5. he has always been someone in imo who just wants to write controversial stories to get his name out their. he knows that since hes black he can get away with saying things that others can't. i personally don't like him, but some of his topics are interesting, but pretty much nothing is 'wow', like he wants people to think. |

[/ QUOTE ] Maybe 99.99% of the muslims you know or the muslims in the US. There are roughly 1 billion Muslims today, and .0001 of that is 100,000. Are you really contending there are only ~100,000 Muslim extremists on the planet? That's barely enough to fill up 1 football stadium. Thread derail complete. |

Re: Sean Taylor Shot at Home
I wasn't thinking of Muslims in the US. I was thinking about places like rural Pakistan where Bin Laden is still a hero. Or on the streets of Lebanon where the general public still seems to think 9-11 was an inside job. Granted I have very little first-hand knowledge of these places. But that's the impression I get.
I do know a few people who grew up in Muslim countries. They paint a fairly unpretty picture of racial intolerance, where someone might legitimately fear for their life to speak out against extremists. Just wanted to clarify, not trying to start a pissing-derail. |

Re: Sean Taylor Shot at Home
one of the reasons I am so sad is because he was such a unique player. I dont think there will ever be another player with his blend of charisma, athleticism, hard hitting ability, ball skills, and heart.
