Have You Received This?

I guess this is when my inlaws stopped REALLY talking to me. Small talk and business is still okay, but not much past that.

So, I get this email:

Written by a housewife from New Jersey and sounds like it! This isone pissed off lady."Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or was it notstartedby Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September 11, 2001 ?
Were people from all over the world, mostly Americans, not brutallymurdered that day, in downtown Manhattan , across the Potomacfrom our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania ? Did nearlythree thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning orcrushingdeath that day, or didn't they?And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran was "desecrated"when an overworked American soldier kicked it or got it wet?...Well,Idon't. I don't care at all.I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents forincinerating all those innocent people on 9/11.I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East startcaringabout the Holy Bible, the mere possession of which is a crime in SaudaArabia.I'll care when these thugs tell the world they are sorry for hacking offNick Berg's head while Berg screamed through his gurgling slashedthroat.I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents" in Iraq come out andfight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding inmosques.I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search ofnirvana care about the innocent children within range of their suicidebombs.I'll care when the American media stops pre tending that their FirstAmendment liberties are somehow derived from international law insteadofthe United States Constitution's Bill of Rights.In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave marine roughingup an Iraqi terrorist to obtain information, know this: I don't care.When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi prisoners who havebeenhumiliated in what amounts to a college-hazing incident, rest assured:Idon't care.When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told nottomove because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank: Idon't care.When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat,andfed "special" food that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complainingthathis holy book is being "mishandled," you can absolutely believe in yourheart of hearts : I don't care.And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's spelled "Koran" andother times "Quran." Well, Jimmy Crack Corn and -you guessed it -I don'tcare ! ! ! ! !If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to all your e-mailfriends.Sooner or later, it'll get to the people responsible for this ridiculousbehavior!If you don't agree, then by all means hit the delete button. Should youchoose the latter, then please don't complain when more atrocitiescommitted by radical Muslims happen here in our great country! And may Iadd: "Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made adifference in the world. But, the Marines don't have that problem." --Ronald ReaganI have another quote that I would like to add AND.......I hope youforward all this. "If we ever forget that we're One Nation Under God,then we will be a nation gone under." also by.. Ronald Reagan One lastthought for the day: In case we find ourselves starting to believe allthe anti-Americansentiment and negativity, we should remember England 's Prime MinisterTony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of hisParliament members why he believes so much in America , he said:"A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many wantin... And how many want out."Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:1. Jesus Christ2. The American G. I.One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Yes, I am adding one....a child in an elementary school was eating a ham sandwich in the cafeteria at a table with Muslems...He was suspended because they (Muslems) do not eat portk. How ridiculous is that?



That last commentary was from one of my in-laws.....

And here's what I wrote back to each of them:

Sorry- I find it hard to believe that the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ would think it was perfectly fine to strip and stack (or rectally penetrate with a pencil) other human beings because they were Muslims.

I guess it's just silly me.....

And that, your honor, is when I noticed their level of conversation drop off.....drastically.
