Title: An open letter to the Scumbags.
Post by: JerginsSoft on September 19, 2001, 08:20:20 AM
Dear Scumbags,

Do you think  you are doing America any favors by spitting on random "Arab-looking" people?

What right do you have to perpetuate terror, in the name of stamping it out?

How dare you call yourself an American, and stand for the very thing true Americans stand against?

I\'m all for the side of caution against terrorists, and, true, they could be anywhere, but, why do you think you have a right to accuse, judge, sentence and carry out justice on someone you know NOTHING about.

If I catch you abusing, spitting upon, cursing, or biasing against an "Arab-looking" person, you, Scumbag, will know a true American\'s feelings.  I will NOT allow this to happen.

In a time of need, a time for togetherness, you pieces of garbage refuse to let good people live.

I will not stand for it.

Word!!  I m with ya...

But try to remember that this is happening on a small limited scale..

The muslim community came on the air last night on the news and said that the main stream people have been really nice and understanding..

There are always a few bad eggs..  But trust me I will crush that bad egg if I see one...  I have little tolerance for stuff like that

Heck we still have losers who torture blacks too.  We will always have loser racists.  We should come down on these people hard labeling everything a hate crime.

Seems like "knee-jerk" reactions by some who have no clear understanding as to whom caused this atrocity. And for some, I\'m sure it is a means to lend a diluted "credability" to their bigoted and simple mentalities. I live in Canada, and the incidence of hate crime is reported to be significantly increasing as a result of last weeks atrocity. I know emotions sometimes get the best of people around a crisis, but how is the mentality of targeting innocent people by physical appearance alone any different than those who perpetrated such a heinous act  on Sept.11.

Ya know, I was kinda considering callin up some of the mosques in Ft. Wayne and giving them my condolences over the hatred that\'s been aimed towards them of late. I really don\'t have the money to spend though, but I do see where your comming from. The whole reason those people are here is because they want to enjoy and be a part of what America stands for... freedom.

This whole country is basically a mixing pot of every nationality on the face of the earth. Do some of you really understand just how amazing that is? In many countrys, not even a meger 2 social groups can live together without wanting to obliterate each other. We have hundreds, and what\'s more amazing.. we\'re all that much stronger for it. Rather than being torn apart by inner turmoil in our cities.. we (for the most part) recognise what lies behind the ethnic group... people... human beings.
