Why do all terrorist attack news get to here?
Already heard it.....
Nazis? Abu Sayaf (Philippine Rebels)? Russian Criminals?
Chinese Criminals? Normal Criminals? or even worse! Bin Laden Followers!

Muslims? WRONG! In Philippines we have Muslims but we dont even kill them even their innocent!

I advise you to shut the fuck up, you don't know anything. It's a pretty good stereotype isn't it? just because someone is Muslim doesn't mean he/she is a terrorist.

Your teacher was probably a fucking red neck. (If you went/go to school, that is).

All Germans are Nazis.
All Americans are fat
All Irish people are drunks

Nice stereotyping, hobo man445, we should totally award you for being a retard.

All blacks are stupid.
All Somalians are pirates. ( aar, matey! )
Etc.

( please don't take offence to that, was just an addition of examples. )

Stereotyping is a normal part of life, and generally it does describe the group of people, eg saying nerds are weak. This makes sense and is usually true, right? However, stereotyping according to race is what is bad about it, saying that fat people can't run is a stereotype, but it is usually true and isn't meant in an insulting way, it's just denoting a group of people. ( when have you ever seen someone really fat being able to complete a 400m sprint? Please, I need to see that YouTube video! )

Do you get what I mean?

On-topic:
Read it in the newspaper today, aparently it went hand in hand with someone dressing up as a cop and shooting at a kiddie camp or something like that.

Being overweight logically implies your muscles will have to work harder which logically implies that an overweight person with equivalent muscle strength a non-overweight person will not be able to physically perform as well.

Being Muslim does not imply that you are, or are more likely to be, a terrorist.

Do you get what I mean?

You've got to be careful and distinguish between when you're drawing a logical conclusion as opposed to judging a group using a logical fallacy, or judging a group illogically as a whole. The most common fallacy used in stereotyping is this.

It's not racist if you backup your argument, however it still is if you directly hurt someone because of it. Oh and you can't be racist to your own race. >:D

Actually, the last quotes I put on my last post weren't directly "racist", because they have nothing to do with race.

The word terrorist isn't a racist word either, but calling a muslim a terrorist is just as equally offensive either way; I'd also consider it an ignorant statement.

That seems flawed. And your post doesn't make sense anyway.
