Well not really woried that they will try to hijack another airliner in USA. Now entire passengers will attack knowing that if they lose control of plane it becomes a bomb.


 What worries me is people who lease their private planes, We have decided not to lease out our Caravan to anyone. Just decided that to be prudent and responsible to our employees, that we should take chance our plane could be used to hurt others, which in turn could open us up to lawsuits. It know cost us a lot more to keep our plane with out diverting some of the cost. But I think any plane bigger than a single engine is at risk. You can carry over 4000lbs in our Caravan (with out pod attached) with pod its close to 5000 lbs.

The problem with the word racism is that it makes a faulty assumption: that we are all of different race.  That is an utterly incorrect statement.  We are all, no matter what skin color, hair color, nationality, creed, sex, whatever...we are all HUMAN.  Period.

You can argue until you're blue in the face, but it is all moot.  Why doesn't everyone just wake up and realize the simple truth?  We are but a group of barely evolved hairless apes living on a tiny rock orbiting an insignificant star in a giant universe.  Get over all your petty squabbles and let's get on with our lives.

There's a big difference between discriminating in a particular situation, and being a racist Sid, regardless of what animal spouts.

You were not being a racist in that particular situation.  You were discriminating though.

Of course, there is a perfectly good solution to all of this.  Internment camps.  It helped us win WWII by keeping all of those Japanese spies under lock-and-key through the duration of the war, and it can help us win the War on Terror by getting all of those terrorists in the muslim population off the streets too!

Jonny, if we all had blue faces we wouldn't be talking about racism, bud. And anyway Sid should have formed a mob and beat those terrorists, even if a couple of them DID look like us.

Palestinian isn't an ethnicity or even a nationality . Some of them are arabs or semites, caucasion and blacks.  They come from at least four different nationalities, Egypt, Isreal and Jordan, and Lebanon and maybe Syria .

By that logic Israeli, (which you call a nationality) isnt even an ethnic group or nationality.  So your argument basically sucks Suave.  Lets see Isrealis are Russian, German, Polish, Ethiopian, Mexican, Dutch, British,  Czech and so on and so on.......

And yes the Palestenians are now a nationality, no matter huw much you Palestine haters don't want to admit it. They have just as much cause to be called that as does any American. Or is that not a Nationality.

Now I'm a palestinian hater ? Palestine is region in asia minor, there are five countries in that region: Egypt, Lebannon, Syria, Isreal, Jordan. I just stated facts, not an argument .

 No Isreali isn't an ethnicity. It is a country so that makes it a nationality . Isn't this stuff obvious ?

Imagine if you ask a Palestenian what country are you from, I'm sure he would say I'm from Israel. Or I'm from Egypt.... Yes 100% sure. :rolleyes:
