A question about racism?

I am definitely, and absolutely in no way a racist.
But i would like to hear peoples views on this matter.
I don’t particularly want to refer to people that come from Pakistan, are called.
But on the other hand. How about people that come from Sweden or Finland.
For example.
Is it exceptable to refer to people as ” Swedes” or ” Fins”
As these comments made about these people seem to swept under the carpet!
Only sensible answers please.

would you be insulted if i called you ant instead of anthony?

Are we headed toward a civil war in this country?

The immigration problem exploding in this country is being ignored by the heads of state, but it is not something that can be swept under the rug. We have neither the economy nor the jobs to support such a growth without severly reducing the quality of life. We are up to our eyeballs in debt to the international bankers. We, and our close allies have interconnected wars (involving our military forces), or brewing wars on at six fronts: Iraq, Afghanistan, N.Korea, Mexico’s border, most of the middle east, and Venezuela.

Civil war- no. World war maybe. And I can see what you mean about the “beast” in Revelations. I think that the Presidency has developed too much power since Dub-ya took office. It’s like America was brainwashed for a moment, but we’re snapping out of it. A new poll just released today showed that 60% of Americans don’t agree with the war in Iraq anymore. Way too many lives too late if you ask me. But because of the 22nd amendment, the American people cannot make a mistake in electing Bush to office for a third term. As long as we stay out of the Bushes, I think we’ll be okay.

Democrats and Terrorists?

Are the Democrats going to give the Terrorists amnesty? I mean god forbid we listen to their INTERNATIONAL phone calls to see what they are plotting. God fordbid we trace their money, everything takes money. God forbid we press them for information by blasting music to them.

Why not? They’re already giving them encouragement and fighting tooth and nail to give the ones that get caught a free legal defense along with all the rights accorded an American citizen who is arrested.

What the hell ails these nut bags? The Islamic terrorist would return the favor by murdering their families and cutting their heads off.

Wouldn’t you think that in order to deserve human rights that you first have to act human?
