Would a black Afro-American Muslim be a possible terrorist?
 

..do you think those people have the balls to kill them-self or other people? like the middle east crew?

I hope you aren't saying that just because someone is Muslim they are automatically terrorists. Also, it's "African American" not "Afro-American"

I go by RRRed's rule of thumb.

"If they are brown, shoot them down"

I doubt you have the balls to shoot anyone

I killed a man with my bare hands because he called me dude

lol, I just realized you typed "black Afro-American"

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh You're on a roll today fucker! Is my ad up yet???

Actually, it's "black". They're no more African than I am.
It always amazes me how people who don't even have a clue where the hell Africa is (just like Americans of all other colours) get the idea to call themselves "Africans". They're not Africans, they're Americans.

really? sorry for even second guessing you

haha - great bumper sticker

Actually, it can go either way. Caucasins (spelling?) can also be called "white". Blacks originate from Africa and now reside in United States of America, thus the term "African American" is correct. I might be wrong but I am pretty sure I'm right. BTW, I know where Africa is. I have been to Capetown twice in my life

no - not at all - but facts are the people that have been doing the latest terror attacks in the middle east, London, USA, Russia and Asia - they have all been Muslims.. "Extremist" ? yes - "Muslims" ? yes - "are all Muslims terrorists" ? don't think so - but facts are facts

.. you know EXACTLY what I ment

my fault. i get overly excited sometimes. i have a friend that's muslim and he gets constantly harassed

how is Afro-American different from African American?

the hairstyle

John Allen Muhammad? The Washington sniper ... was a Black Muslim I believe ... and he definitely terrorized some people.

:2 cents:

-P

My point is not that black people do or do not originate from Africa. They do, just like the rest of humanity.

My point is that "African Americans" today have virtually no cultural links with Africa. The terms "African American" and "European American" create an artificial gap between the races. They suggest a profound, cultural gap, a gap that can't be bridged, by emphasizing historic origins rather than present culture.

To any outsider it is immediately clear that Americans, whether black or white, are first and foremost Americans. The differences between American black and white subcultures have nothing to do with "Africa" versus "Europe". Using the word "African American" promotes a wholly irrational identification with something black Americans truly have nothing to do with: Africa.
