Wow, Enlightenment, you continue to prove the irony of your name. Guess my Muslim friend from school must be hellbent on blowing up the town, killing my Christian ass, and hero-worshipping Osama, eh?

The statement that Islam spends most of its religious energy in finding better ways to hate and kill does not equate to a statement that all Islamics are terrorists.


Nor is my handle intended to be suggestive of any beliefs whatsoever.

I don't know much about the current state of the drug busts or war on drugs in the big citys. but I was in the Navy for 5 years as an aviation electronics tech on EP-3's and my last duty station in Jacksonville FL working on P-3's. The P-3 orions are first and formost a sub hunter. But the systems on that bird make them very adept (and for the last few years at least that I know of) at finding ship and low level aircraft drug runners coming up from Cuba and South America. I've seen more than a few FLIR (Forward Looking InfraRed) tapes of smuglers being spotted, taged and bagged. One of the last one's I saw before my departure was a capture of a full ton of coke (and not the kind you drink) on a scrab type boat and if the tapes were any indication, they didn't go quietly. I don't agree with the pressure that the cops get sometimes nor with dirty cops in particular, but I take my hat off to the ones that deserve it. It's not an easy job, especially in a city. We may not be doing great in the war on drugs, but it's nice to see a few victorys.

Islam is a peaceful religon, it's just a shame that fanatics has bastardised the teachings and made them look bad, one of the greatest ever americans was muslim and he refused to fight a war for anyone i am ofcourse talking about Ali the king of the world.

But is unfair to assume that because of a few fanatics all muslims/christians are foaming basket cases, they're not, just most of them
