When Terrorists Win Miss America

People are just dumb, that's the ultimate conclusion from all of this.

[Indy]

That's REALLY dumb. Although, like I said, I can't tell if we're overrun by dumb people or you just hear their voices louder now because of the Internet.

[micfranklin]

It's probably both. But that's better because now we all know who should be discredited and who's opinions not to take too seriously. Specifically those who think "Indian" is synonymous with "Arab" or "Muslim."

The media really needs to stop reporting stuff that happens on the internet. The internet has its own brand of justice and it works pretty well. Of course, that doesn't get reported, only the comments from a handful of idiots that now become the perception the world has of our country.

Anti-Muslim bigotry is only going to increase, IMO.

The Western world is becoming irreligious and liberal. Muslim youth, on the other hand, are becoming radically conservative, with values almost totally at odds (sometimes rightly, often wrongly) with the corporate dystopia we've created.

I don't anticipate either of these trends reversing, which is going to result in plenty of conflicts, intentionally exacerbated by extremists on each side. We'll continue to blow up their villages, they'll continue to blow up our embassies, and this conflict will continue to expand into the Western world.

Once it gets bad enough, once a group of extremists sets off a suitcase nuke in LA, or a gas attack in Tel Aviv... institutional Islam will be utterly destroyed. Literally all the major powers in the world are being threatened by Islamic extremists, and considering how we reacted to 9/11, I can't imagine how we'll react to an attack that is of actual significance (not to undermine the tragedy of 9/11, but killing 3000 civilians only scares us, it didn't hurt us in a strategic, big picture sense).

To sum it up, I think this is a conflict that will get so bad that eventually we're going to be forced to pick a side. That is, after all, exactly what both sides of the conflict want.

I think she's super hot and don't see what the issue is.

[Stratego]

This isn't really anti-Muslim, since Muslims wouldn't approve of her showing off her body like this either. It's really solidarity with Muslims.

I just can't find Indian women attractive. Don't know why but they do nothing for me .
