View Full Version : Adam Carolla hits the nail on the head- criticism on Islam
I missed the show last night- mainly because I don't go out of my way to watch O'Reilly (there's already a topic on this, please, don't beat any dead horses in here), but Adam Carolla was on and critiquing not only the stupidity of the Coexist bumper sticker on the car stolen by the Boston bomber(s), but also Islam itself! It's really on point and hitting the nail on the head! I love it! [Beer]

O'Reilly is a king-sized tool. Corolla was funny...and correct.
Carl, I really can't argue with that... That's probably the reason I like Carolla, he's educated.

I don't agree with his feelings on Boston. When I've visited Boston, I've run into the most bigoted people I've ever met. While I know it's not all of them, it's a greater percentage than any other city I've visited.

There's a reason they're called "Massholes"... Thick skin is required while visiting or living in Beantown.

Definitions of "bigotry" and "racism" vary quite a bit, depending on who you're talking to, but yeah . . . the Irish are certainly "racist" . . . it's part of the culture. But then again, so are Blacks and Asians (especially the Chinese) . . . part of their culture too. I hear the Germans and Italians are also somewhat racist. In fact, talking shit about people who are different from you seems common to nearly every nation, race, religion, and creed. They only seem to bitch about it here in America . . . and only when "privileged White males" do it . . . in fact, I've even heard several Libtards state that "it is impossible to be racist against White people." As long as no-one is actually being beaten, persecuted, or denied employment based upon their race/religion/nationality/whatever, I fail to see how this is still considered a "major issue" anymore. So someone overheard a slur and got their feelings hurt . . . that's life, deal with it and move on.

The Irish as a whole aren't racist, they hate everyone equally. The British abused and enslaved them for a thousand years, so that tends to create a very thick skin and gallows humor. They are a people who are not having a good time unless they are verbally or physically assaulting someone. I know this because I am Irish. I love my family, but I have been in fistfights with all of them. Do we use salty and racist language, yes because if you want to get under someone's skin that is the fastest way. By the same token you can find Irish hanging out with every other race and culture too, as long as they are stand-up guys. There is no patience for whining or someone that des not hold their own in a fight.

It's not just about the death count but think of how many were maimed and/or amputated. Beyond that, an avalanche is a naturally occurring phenomena, and an accidental fire-explosion is not nearly the same as a terrorist attack. It's the majority of what's being talked about in the same line of thinking that 9/11 was widely discussed afterward, but no one seemed to notice that 5 people were killed that same week in a roll over accident in some other part of the country.

I agree with your post.
Just wanted to point out that the jury is still out on whether the West Texas fire-explosion was accidental.
After-all, it took place two days before the anniversary and less than 15 miles from Waco. Just sayin
O'Reilly hasn't seen the COEXIST sticker? What F-n planet does this elitist live on? I thought he was suppose to be a common man? Idiot!
Most residents of NYC don't drive or even own cars because it's easier to walk or take public transportation.
From that standpoint it's possible that there aren't that many cars with the coexist sticker in NYC.
That said, even if they were all over the place, Bill likely wouldn't have seen them because it's difficult to observe your surroundings when your head is jammed that far up your own ass.

My wife actually told me once that she was initially attracted to me on the grounds that I was such an asshole all the time, and yet somehow everybody liked me. (Her words.)

As a McBride, I too will raise a glass to my brothers [Beer]
An Irishman, an Englishman and a Scotsman go into a pub. Each orders a pint.
Just as the bartender hands them over, three flies buzz down and land-- one, two, three-- in each of the pints.
The Englishman looks disgusted, pushes his pint away and demands another...
the Scotsman picks out the fly, shrugs, and takes a long swallow.
The Irishman reaches into the glass, grabs the fly between his fingers, and shakes him as hard as he can, shouting, "Spit it out, ya wee bastard!"
Some lively conversation going on here.
I do have a question about the intent of our new member, why are you a member here? This is a local forum and shooting club and it is my understanding that in your belief system you are prohibited from socializing with the infidels and "the great satan", So I have to ask what is your purpose here?
Normally this would have been in the form of a personal message but since you felt the need to jump in to this conversation I thought I would go ahead and post this here. Keep in mind that a good portion of us do consider ourselves at war with your ideology considering the attacks upon our homeland by self proclaimed radical Muslims and the fact that your ideology preaches to eradicate Jews and Christians from the earth, I tend to think your here just to troll. If that is the case then your membership here will be short lived.

I don't think anyone necessarily wants to convert muslims to anything. We pretty much just want them to stop killing innocent people and blowing things up in this country.
Here in America, we got something called "freedom of religion," which means anyone is permitted to PEACEFULLY practice or study ANY religion they want. Most Americans really have no problem with Muslims . . . as long as they PEACEFULLY practice their religion in private. You see, freedom of religion also means freedom FROM religion. That means no-one can force you to change your beliefs. It is also considered offensive to stop people on the street or visit their homes unannounced and start talking about how your religion is better. It is also a crime to attack or threaten people based on the fact that they have different beliefs.

Bingo! However, do we have to go back and rehash that old conversation about how Islomb is more than just a "religion"? When one set of religious 'beliefs' dictate how your nation is run, and forces those who don't follow that 'religion' to subject to the rules and standards (see: Sharia law), then you veer off into a totalitarian state... which is just plain wrong.
