    How many terror attacks have there been in South Central? And you won't get randomly killed there unless you are dealing on their turf (or wearing the wrong colors). In contrast, anything can happen at anytime by a random Muslim crazy in London, Paris, and many other parts of Europe.

    Also, veils are a security threat. There is no reason to cover you face in a civilized society that is worried about identifying terrorists with advanced surveillance technology.

    Lastly, Islam will always have an excuse to attack non-believers. They suck at modern life and blame non-Muslims for their regression instead of looking inwards for improvement. Can't say the same for the folks living in LBC / South Central.

    All religions are bad.

    Just because he media doesn't call it a terrorist attack, doesn't mean people innocent people aren't killed there. Or in Wisconsin.

    When I was in London over the past week, I ventured over to a beer fest out in Bethnel Green which is an East End neighborhood where a lot of the lower income housing is. It's one thing to read in the paper about the abundance of veils in Europre these days; it's another thing to see it in person.

    I'm sure the veils were scary.
    Yes, very scary. When I see the veils and burkas at my local Target in Northgate I get very scared and terrified as well.
    Shaking and about to vomit.
    Looks like we got a case of reciprocal whoooooshing going on here I suppose.

    To clarify: veils don't scare me, rather I was simply offering an observation about walking around the back streets of a borough in London where there is an abundance of Muslim residents. In this case 50% of the population in that borough.
    I walked through a Muslim Temple in India. Where it was 100% of people Muslim and everyone praying to Allah and in awe of the temple. They come from all over India to visit that Temple, it's a big deal to them and we had a crazy trek just to get there, we swapped vehicles like 3 times. We had to take off our shoes as pay someone 100 rupees to watch them (like $2 at the time). We also walked around the area some in the process. Would you rather walk around there or stroll through some neighborhoods in South Central LA?
    This is a silly question. Were in the same scenario as you describe I would not have felt scared in the least. But I can also guarantee you that the majority of those worshipers would have held illiberal world views that I loathe and that's really the crux of the matter. Islam is a "traditional" culture forced to come to grips with the modern world in a very short period of time. It took the Christian West centuries and a hell of a lot of bloodshed to "modernize" itself. How successful Islam will be with this project remains to be seen.

    You're wrong by a factor of around 1,000 to 1 but OK.

    It's the fucked up culture in the middle East, not the religion itself. Yes there are wackos that kill in he name of Allah. But there is a billion other peaceful Muslims in the world. Just like the are wacko Christians. Wacko atheists, etc.

    Iran is a fucked up country - although many Iranian are fairly secular - run buy apocalyptic Mullahs and is not in the Middle East. Afghanistan - and much of Pakistan for that matter - are as assbackwards as it gets and neither is in the Middle East. I'm a whacko atheist and thus consistent in my criticism of all theisms, but the fact of the matter is that the religion is defined by the culture and behavior of it's followers. Most Christians in West pick and chose what parts of the holy books they want to take seriously or not and the culture is a modern one. It certainly wasn't always this way. Islam in most parts of the world hasn't gone through the process of becoming modern yet.
    They could use some modernization in the form of explosives on their house.

    Not that I want to kill them (rule one) but a large scale amount of limbs blown off could really make an improvement.

    Sounds like you were in a Sikh temple. Muslims pray in mosques.

    I like the new 24 Legacy where Dr Dre is the bad ass and Jamal and his band of terrorists pissed off a drug gang and paid for it bigly.

    No wonder Hondo is scared of South Central

    When that movie came out Tom Clancy said in an interview that he cried when he read the script and saw what they'd done to his book. Very quickly the Paramount execs had a nice quiet chat with him about whether or not he wanted them to keep making movies out of his increasingly shitty books, and the next day he sang its praises.

    If you believe in a book written by an 8th century perverted warlord murderer which instructs you to kill and enslave the infidel, abuse women and stone them for being raped, kill Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, gays and lesbians, fuck boys, goats and camels, you are not peaceful. HTFH.

    Without hesitation, I'd rather walk through South Central (and have walked through South Central) than many parts of India, and many parts of London. Oh yes.

    I got a very quick peek at some of the Muslim slums on the outskirts of Paris ... the places you don't see when you visit. Those places are absolutely fucking scary. We don't have to argue about it; go there for a visit and see for yourself. Just don't go alone and without someone who knows how to get in and out of places quickly w/o getting lost.

    If you axed me whether I'd rather walk through Liberty City in Miami, I might hesitate for a minute and pick the India place. But the wrong hood in London or Paris ... that is another matter entirely.

    PS: I'm not exactly a right winger either, so don't write off my response to ideology. That ain't it.

    South Central isn't even that scary. I've spent time in Jordan Downs and Imperial Gardens and never felt the least bit scurred.
