Tryout to wrap my head around this question. It’s pretty difficult because it sounds like a really stupid question. Maybe I’m misunderstanding it. Maybe I’m not. All I can say is terrorists don’t represent me or my religion. I will not apologize for them. Edited December 23, 2017 by Justice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don’t know where you’re going to with that question. Like I said. I can’t speak for terrorists. I don’t know why they do the things they do and it shouldn’t impact me or people of my faith one iota. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even said I’d accept any reasonable answer. It was an honest question. I also failed to mention 9/11 because, IMO, our freedom was not at stake that day. Shouldn’t it take a lot more than 3 planes and 3000 lives to lose our freedom? 7 hours ago, 3rdnlng said: Or your flimsy premise was seen through by anyone with an IQ higher than gator's.

IMO that’s a whole other argument. We didn’t have to do many of the things we did post 9/11. They got lucky that day. All we had to do was tighten up the cockpit doors and make sure we keep fighter jets on stand by. The terrorists win that way. Besides, what does that have to do with our military fighting for our freedom as of today? That phrase is still being used. 37 minutes ago, Chef Jim said: You pose two questions here. Was our freedom at stake or did we lose our freedom? Which one are your asking? We didn’t lose our freedom at all and that’s my point. Nor were we in risk of losing it on that tragic and unfortunate day. Matter of fact I’m gonna go ahead and say most here doesn’t even know what it feels like to not have freedom, so maybe that’s why you can insinuate that we lost some. I, on the other hand, know first hand what it feels like. My American citizenship and passport means nothing in the West Bank.
