Question If you were....

Boarding a plane for a flight to America, it's a budget airline and it kind of shows with their lack of procedure. When your getting on there's an asian guy in muslim dress looking very very shifty, chanting under his breath. Do you ....
Get on the flight and stay quiet?
Have a word with the stewardess and refuse to fly?
.....?

Ask him if he was Ok....might just be a nervous flyer

Depending on his answer, might ask him to get a bloody grip...... as he is, sure as hell, making me nervous

If he was stinking of perfume and chanting then yes as that is one of the signs of a suicide bomber.

Is there any kind of point to this post?

Is it even amusing?

Are you some kind of a racist? Are all suicide bombers dressed in "muslim dress" whatever the friggin hell that is?

Grow the fuk up and stop posting imflamatory racist crap just for the hell of it.
If you really were getting on a plane and this was happening to you then you'd be a seriously sad mo-fo to go find an interne cafe and ask this question on a forum.

Didnt something stupid like this happen last year and the people of the flight refused to fly till the 2 "suspect" guys were removed?
How pathetically jingoistic of them...and you for posting this crap.

Maybe he,s feeling nervous cos he suspects you think he,s a bit dodgy, we,ve got a few muslims on this site I believe,I,ll bet they really feel really welcome now.

He was sitting in Starbucks reading his book, I leant down with a lighter and lit his shoelaces - highkacked a buggy and drove 20 gates away! After 15 minutes I heard no booms so all was clear


But no it's not racist in the slightest, I've got no belief that every Muslim is a terrorist, far from it. Every terrorist so far has been a Muslim and it seems that this fact is to be ignored not to appear 'racist'. It becomes more ridiculous that Muslim groups are complaining of being victimised when every suicide bomber was known well within their community for showing signs of extremism and no one reported it, even after an incident has occurred police have found the communities difficult to cooperate with. I am more than aware of what a peaceful religion it should be; look how well they took that cartoon of Mohamed.
Speak to any white male from Northern Ireland and they'll tell you how for years they would get extra security measures when flying and I never heard the discrimination word once. I personally wouldn't want to walk in to an American school with a pale spotty goth with a goatie.

The point of this post? To see if anyone had similar views to the '**** don't mention it man...' PC attitude.

I hope they answer, I'd be keen to hear what their view is.
