[Now that is 1% as I suspected, not 25%.
You need to get the facts straight. 25% of Muslims UNDER THE AGE OF 30 years old have said that they approve of suicide bombings in the name of their religion. I don't know if the report in Pew is "straight fact" or not. But that is what Pew reports. This is what was the statistic for under 30 years: ----------------------------- Among Muslims younger than 30, for example, 15% say that suicide bombing can often or sometimes be justified (2% often,13% sometimes), ------------------------------ That is again 2% (13% are subjective, like the 7% for overall population). Are you saying I am not quoting them correct or what? I did not see 25% in their report, which is HERE

First off, perhaps you should check into the AP and Pew, and you'll find they are quite reputed sources.
Thanks for the suggestion, I will. Secondly, DC has already pointed out the flaw in your conclusion.
Such as? Please tell me where in the Pew report, it says 25%. I didn't bring this pew thing. Maybe it is 25% (I don't think/believe so, still for the sake of argument), but it is not mentioned in the report. I attached a link in my previous post. Please read.

http://news.bostonherald.com/national/view.bg?articleid=1002555"That sentiment is strongest among those younger than 30. Two percent of them say it can often be justified, 13 percent say sometimes and 11 percent say rarely." 13 +11 + 2 ____ 26% So, one percent more, actually. Roughly 1/4th, or 25%.

I know what you're saying svsg, and I could honestly go either way on airport profiling. It's just that this country has been very good to these people and it's ridiculous that even 1 percent of them think that way. If they are so dis-satisfied with America to the extent of killing people, they shouldn't be citizens of this country in the first place, because most of them are foreign born as per the survey. It is just ridiculous that these 1% people support killing civilians for religion. I agree, they should not have any place in a legal society, except perhaps in jails. Thank you svsg, we fundamentally agree on this issue. PB

Having spent time doing summerstock in my youth, I know how easy it is to make a 21 year old girl look like a 70 year old woman. Yes, but can you make a 40 something chick look 21? Aw PB, that was just mean.

Obviously you've never had the honor of meeting SB. She looks 21, naturally. Kiss ass.
