Prety clever if you ask me, though he denies that it's intentional. :]

Direct attack against dham. Nothing to do with his argument.

Some people don't mind being called "niggers" either. The difference between you and I is that I have the sense that MOST people of color would be offended by it. You just assume otherwise.

And I'm glad your impressed at the mass destruction these people caused. If building tumbling and people dying impress you, feel free to stand closer next time for a better look.

Dham is insensitive, and therefore wrong. Bzzzt! Faulty logic.
Profanities != ad hominem attacks. Perhaps a failure of vocabulary, but that's about it.
FWIW, I'm pretty much in agreement w/ dham on this one. It's a complex situation that can't be understood, much less solved, with the "They're insane! Nuke the insane towelheads!!" sentiment so common in the 'States these days.
Yeah, I'm a N00B here, but I'm used to being on the unpopular end of arguments, so this stuff is nothing new.
