Now you know me and know I posted a lot of stuff in the past but I only complained once and was promptly told it is the internet, if you don't like it close the thread or hit your back button. I have lived by that since and I have been on this site since 02. So why is it that this pic suddenly offends certain people and it needs to be removed but the Jesus pic is ok when it offends just as many. I say if you delete it then you need to delete all of the religon pics period.
    Teg, the deal is this. Muslims take there religion a lot more serious than all other religions(as you can see in the world). I never post a jesus pic doing anything, and I usually, or as far as I remember, I dont think I have seen a jesus pic in a signature doing something, or I would have been offended by that also. Im not a religious freek or anything like that, but there are lines, and I think this crosses the line. The reason for that is that Muslims HIGHLY RESPECT THERE QURAN. And thats just straight up bashing it. I've been on IA just as long as you have, and I have never ever debated something like this or seen something like this. I also remember when you did have that issue about people getting on you for something you posted. But I feel it should be removed.
    I can understand if Pharm posted this up one time, and that was it, I know he would have meant it as a joke, and I would be offended, but that thread was eventually scroll into history, and I would have to move on with me life, but he posts often and I really dont want to see that pic everytime I'm reading a thread. you feel me?

    I understand where you are coming from Atif, I really do. At the same time the Jesus pic gets posted up more than once. I find it offensive and do not care for it, but that does not stop them from posting it. I believe that certain pics should not be posted on the site and the two main ones being the Jesus pic and the one in Pharm Tegs sig, but once that pic is gone the Jesus pic will continue to show up. Now how is that fair.

    And Sara, I can respect that fact that you see discrimination through your eyes and think that right now the arab/muslims are catching the blunt of it. I will agree that in airports it is probably worse since that is the means America was attacked through in the first place. But, discrimination is alive in all aspects of the world. Everyday someone is getting hasseled or wrongfully accused because of their skin color, sex, or age. So what you see through your eyes might be different than what a black person sees or an asian person sees through their eyes. Just think about that a little also. And remember Peral Harbor? Think about what the asian people living in America went through at that time.

Dont act like you're teaching me shit because I'll tell you now.... I CAN GO ON FOREVER. I know more about discrimination and I am more educated about cultures, race & ethnicity, and religion than you can imagine so dont even sit there thinking that you know more than me or for that matter CHANGE WHAT I WROTE. read shit before you make it an issue.

    CHILL THE FUCK OUT. I was just stating the way your post came across and was stating how the asains went through the same thing at that time and it is the same thing muslims/arabs are going through NOW.
