Who exactly would you have cast?
The Amazons have their roots in Ancient Greek myth. Ancient Greeks worn battle armor similar in style to her costume. That would also be why she has a sword and shield instead of a machine gun.
“On the other hand, if this weren’t a famous case she’d have been out by now and perhaps cooler heads should be making the call, free from political pressure, about whether someone is still a danger to others and when, if ever, they should be released.”
I’m not sure I agree that their racist motives are worse than their murders. That seems to be the point you are making.
That’s all relative though isn’t it. It’s not like she was caught with some weed, or stole a car. She was involved in the brutal murders of several people. A killing spree that has had a lasting and profound impact on our society. I’m sure a lot of people here will disagree, but as far as I’m concerned she should be…
Interesting that I haven’t seen a story on Munich yet.
Look, I’m not saying that Christians, white men, whatever haven’t committed terrorist attacks. They certainly have. I’m saying that when they do they people on this site call it what it is, a terrorist attack by a Christian or a Far Right Republican. They don’t dance around the issue, and use generic labels like…
Your ability to believe that this attack had nothing to do with Islam is impressive. Just like the Orlando shooter had nothing to do with Islam either. He was just a poor homosexual man, living in a society in which that wasn’t allowed. Ridiculous.
Riiiiiight. Islam had nothing to do with his motives; http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/16/eur…
What world do you live in where Islam hasn’t killed more?
Even assuming that the endgame of fundamentalist Christians is to mplement a Christian Theocracy, murdering homosexuals and subjugating non-believers, that doesn’t change the fact that they haven’t been able to because they are a small part of Christianity in the US. What exactly is your point? That Christianity and…
How so? You can understanding that while fundamentalist Islam is not representative of the religion as a whole, it is still connected to it.
You say that, but at the same time you never actually use the term “Islam” in your condemnation of fundamentalist Islam. You used a generic reference to all religions, even though this (and most stories like it) are concerning one very specific religion. There’s a difference between conflating fundamentalist Islam…
I think I mistook what you mean regarding not defining these as ‘honor killings’, and thought you meant that we in the West should look at them solely as murders, ignoring the cultural and religious aspects of the practice. I agree with what you are saying.
And yet they didn’t pull the trigger. An Islamic extremist did. It’s not good to want someone dead for being gay, but I think we can all agree it’s even worse to actually kill someone for being gay. There’s a bit of a difference.
“Read my other replies for the sins of Christian Fundamentalism and the harm (and death) they both cause and condone on a daily basis.”
But almost all of these horrible stories involving fundamentalism involve Islamic fundamentalism. Horrible things are done by Christians, but 1) I don’t think they are done at the rate similar crimes are committed by certain Muslims, and 2) when Christians do these things they are denounced as being Christian…
You might as well not even try to reason with this person. It’s no use. This site is full of apologists for the worst aspects of Islam. If a Muslim does something horrible they’ll criticize religion as a whole, men, hell they might even find a way to point the finger at Western culture, white men or Christianity…
I know a lot of homosexuals who go to church, and some who are even clergy in more moderate churches. There are obviously some very conservative churches and Christians in the US, but guess what, they aren’t going to straight up murder you for being gay (or for having an abortion). Fundamentalist Christians don’t want…
Yes, because you hear about abortion clinic bombings and church shootings all the time right. When was the last time one of these things happened? Go ahead, I’ll give you a minute. Lets compare that to the ever growing horrors committed in the name of Islam. You’d be laughable if the subject weren’t something so…
