I’ve just seen too much stuff so I know when I situation is potentially dangerous.

I'm not sure how you're not following.

You saw some arabs and you started thinking terrorism. That's racist. It's not that difficult, I dont know what you're trying to make it so.

It’s like the question of abortion. Someone can be against abortion all day long but as soon as they are faced with giving birth to an unplanned child, they change their minds.

Yes and after they changed their mind their mind is changed. You never said you changed your mind, you said some wierd **** like one is a personal opinion and one is a covil opinion, some kinda nonsense like that...

Actually it is you ignoring what he said in order to fit a predetermined conclusion. The ****in guy referenced race horse theory. Its pretty obvious what he is alluding to.

Avoiding very dark places is a prudent safety measure. Being suspicious of middle eastern men on public transportation is not.

Yes, I am wary of all people. I just gave an example of that. I’m not wary of middle eastern men randomly kidnapping my child. I am wary of acquaintances, who are mostly white. Different situations call for different suspicion and it’s not always focused on people of color.

You’re attitude of not wanting to impact the feelings of people we are suspicious of is why there are so many mass shootings in 2020.

You: “That kid is weird but I’m not going to say anything because it might hurt his feels.”

Kid later commits a mass shooting...

Also you “I never thought he’d ever do anything like this.”

No. It was multiple factors. It’s not like I see Arab men and think terrorists.

No, I definitely think it's prudent to be wary of the weird, loner kid who is exhibiting behavior of a possible mass shooter. But I don't think it's prudent to be wary of all white kids and assume they could be mass shooters. The vast majority aren't.

That's the difference you fail to see. For the white person to elicit your suspicion they must be acting or exhibiting the signs (weirdness) associated with mass shooters. For the middle eastern man, all they have to do is be middle eastern for you to regard them with suspicion.


If they were in any way equal, I'd expect you to regard every white person who enters a movie theater with suspicion, or every white person who enters a classroom, or a nightclub, with the same suspicion you treated a middle eastern person on public transportation. But we both know you do not. Why is that?

You don’t have ideals that you think are the best for you vs ideals you feel are best for the country? Interesting...

No I see 4 separate Arab men who sit a way to gain tactical advantage on public transportation.

You apparently missed the part where I said they sat in positions which would be perfect to gain a tactical advantage if they were looking to control passengers in a hijacking. This is what raised my suspicion. I was sitting in a position which had a view of the entire train car and happened to view this. This is your “weird, loner kid.” Had they not sat in corners of each other and conveniently almost in sync, I wouldn’t have even noticed.

Good thing you were there, you likely stopped a terrorist attack.
