MIAMI, Florida (CNN) -- A federal indictment against seven men revealed Friday details of what the government said was a plan to "kill all the devils we can" by blowing up Chicago's Sears Tower: http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/06/23/miami.raids/index.html

Seems a bunch of Americans who hate their country tried to gain Al-Qaeda employment.

For some reason I could see certain forum personalities supporting these guys.

I seriously doubt that. They might support that these people, despite what they attempted to do, still have rights (to a trial, etc). But I don't think you'll see anyone out and out agree with the supposed viewpoint of the 7 (that it is a good idea to blow shit up as a solution).

Statements like that make you appear quite ignorant.

This is how I expect it to work. Arrested, a trial and if found guilty then locked up for a long time. Supporting justice is not supporting terrorists, I think you may be a bit confused by the stance some people take.

What has happened to America? You used to be proud of your constitution.

You're right. I have seen several calls by posters to "Nuke them all".

I'll ignore your personal attacks.

Maybe statements like that just make people like you feel self-conscious.

I don't think so. And I agree with Kendra. Your remark was unpleasant and uncalled-for.

It gets in the way of kneejerk vengeance and we can't have that, now can we?

There's not been a whole lot of "nuke them all" quotes. Aside from your mention in this thread, only three other times has it been said, according to the forum search.

You're right. change that to "nuke them" - 10 occurances

while

"it is a good idea to blow shit up" shows up only in this thread

Maybe Billybob was wrong :(

It seems that all 7 of the "homegrown terrorist" are black.

Very stunning.

OK, you get a lot more, but not all in context. For example, I hardly believe the "nuke them" reference on the Grim Baby thread in General (Have you read it? Comedy gold!) has to do with foreign policy.

Eh, I should go back to work or something.

It makes people like myself a bit saddened that you never really understood what people were arguing for. :(

You said there were a lot of fourm posters who think "it is a good idea to blow shit up". I agreed with you, but then Lorelei pointed out that doing a word search showed there wasn't much support for that contention.
