I call bs. I actually saw you edit your comment and you didn’t change that word. And to think you were probably being more polite than usual with it…

The only word I can think of that auto correct would change to “muzzles” would be “muzzies,” and that’s not exactly a polite term for Muslims either.

I’m going to step back for a second and give the benefit of the doubt, solely because auto complete has wrecked more than one statement I’ve made in the past, and clumsily mashing a z is pretty easy with it’s proximity to the s. I still have no faith in the existence of the video however.
Well, I grew up with some American “muzzles”, and they were. . . Americans. They were typical Americans, who liked pop music and Burger King and sports.
Were some American Muslims happy that 9/11 happened? Probably. There were probably some non-Muslims who were happy too, like anarchists, or Christians waiting for the Rapture (I even get the impression a lot of conservatives were happy, since it justified their foreign policy ideas.)
But the Donald isn’t calling for those people to be registered with the government or have their churches shut down.

That’s about as naive a statement as I’ve read recently
You obviously haven’t read or watched videos from Britain or other European countries where radical islamic groups are openly relishing the thought that as muslim populations grow so will the democratic emergence of Sharia law that will usurp the governments of these countries.
That’s how democratic processes work.
We are probably 20-30 years away from that in most countries in Europe, as anglo-Saxon birth rates drop, and Muslim birth rates grow.
You are seeing this in places like Dearborn Michigan, where radical islamic groups are getting bolder, but nothing like London or Leeds or Manchester and so on.
The political correctness gang say this is racist and Islamophobic (new word) but in reality its going on as we speak ( but aren’t allowed to in polite company).

Forget being “politically correct.” By continuing to peddle this “large numbers of American Muslims celebrated 9/11 and I remember the footage of them celebrating in the streets” nonsense you clearly have no interest in being factually correct.

I was reading something recently where a guy was describing one of his favorite childhood memories, and how it was so clear in his mind, and yet realized that it couldn’t be true, because the image he saw in his mind was of himself as if he were another person watching himself from afar.
There have been a lot of studies recently about how the memory is malleable, how we really only remember portions, and fill-in-the-blanks for the rest, reinforcing it over the years and convincing ourselves it was real.
A lot of the images of 9/11 have been circulated on the web for years now, and the same videos of the planes striking the towers replayed over and over on every network at the time, yet the purported video of people cheering in NJ with the towers in the background is nowhere to be found, and is directly contradicted by NJ officials who were there at the time.

Absolutely. I play soccer with Moroccans, Saudis, and one guy from Nigeria, and they are all grateful to be in a non- war torn place. As am I.
Trump us playing a tune on a broken banjo, yet some still want to sing along and agree/ disagree according to the false dialectic of politics.
Here’s the secret; he knows no more than we do what the Turks, Putin, or the next bomber is going to do, do dont be so reactionary when he says something.

There’s only one American religious organization I can think of that openly and publicly celebrated the 9/11 attacks, and they weren’t Muslim.

I wasn’t peddling anything. I was stating my recollection.
Free speech if my memory serves.
Because they’re Americans too and it was an attack on America? What next? The Jews will be cheering an attack?

You may be right. I have made attempts to find the clip that matches my memory over the years, and have failed.

OMFG. The Horror. Must protect the white race!!!
Fuckin’ racist. Why bother to deny it? It is transparent to the rest of us here however you try to justify it.
You know, my Irish, German, English, and French ancestors came over here. Some of them had to deal with their own version of racist shit like this. Shame on you and your ilk who think America is for fucking you and no one else. We were all immigrants once and we’re supposed to be a nation that welcomes others, not turns them away because they’re brown or the “wrong” religion. Last generation, it was Jewish refugees turned away. Before that, the Italians. Before that, where I am, the Chinese. Now it is Muslims. Grow the fuck up.
P.S. Flag away. I’m sure the mods will stamp me down for calling you what you are.

And when I asked you “what would convince you that recollection was wrong?” you declined to provide an answer. Which tells me you don’t particularly care if that recollection is accurate or not.
Oh come on. Correcting or disagreeing with someone isn’t infringing on anybody’s right to free speech.
