Re: Lono and Schmutzie---you guys are shooting yourselves in the

You're assigning the arguments of others to me, again.

I clearly stated in this thread that if Hasan's rampage was indeed "In the name of Islam," if he did yell "Allahu Akhbar!" before opening fire, it doesn't change my initial point one bit, that point being that you played the card based simply on Hasan's last name, and you did so far too early. It showed your extreme anti-Muslim bias, again. The alleged "Allahu Akhbar!" quotes weren't public until the following day. They don't help support your top post, and your attempts to use them after the fact makes your initial position appear weak.

You conjured up a quote, attributed it to the FBI, and then waved off objections to your conjuring by accusing me of being meta-defensive. In order to accurately state your position, perhaps you should try to use "actual quotes" from the FBI, especially at such an emotionally charged moment. Otherwise it comes off looking like you're willing to just make stuff up to support your position.
