But the more you alienate a people, the more they snug themselves into the categories you put them in. Take the Catalan independence thing. There was a large population in France too, but they ended up integrating. They didn't integrate in Spain because the fascist government at the time tried to force it, vilifying Catalonian culture. Instead of that working, it back fired (Just like British treatment of the 13 colonies here). France has no Catalonian separatists, but Spain does.

suspicion and require them to jump through extra hoops to prove themselves...considering their reputation for shooting up schools.

just to see how the neocons handle the dilemma hehe...

The black market will stay, reduction in supply will force up the price of such weapons on the black market, putting them out of the range of the "common" nutter, even if they possessed the connections to deal with the black market. It would also force up the price of certain rounds as they would only be used with certain weapons.
As usual, You simply don't know what you are talking about.sigpicALL THANKS TO THE WONDERFUL CREATOR OF THIS SIG GO TO R.I.G.A lie is just a truth that hasn't gone through conversion therapy yetThe truth isn't the truth

Originally posted by Annoyed View PostSee the bolded/underlined portion of section 1. How many attackers per 1000 persons of each type? For example, if there are 100 times as many "white boys" as there are Muslims, you would expect to see "white boys" carry out 100 times the number of attacks as Muslims do.

Your data set is what happens in America. Annoyed is using a worldwide data set.
Simple fact is, Islam -does- produce more people willing to kill or be killed for their cause than any other religion -right now.-
As you say however, Islam makes up a tiny proportion of violence in the USA
This is why data without context is useless, and frankly, dangerous.sigpicALL THANKS TO THE WONDERFUL CREATOR OF THIS SIG GO TO R.I.G.A lie is just a truth that hasn't gone through conversion therapy yetThe truth isn't the truth

I'm starting to think that there might be some sort of organization, or at least some other people involved in Las Vegas. They still have no idea what his motivation was, and the more we learn about it, it seems that it was too meticulously planned for it all to be the efforts of a single person. If so, this would elevate it beyond the status of a lone nutjob to terrorism. I wonder what the goal or objective is.
