A thread about TERRORISM in our own country (NEWS: Police make terrorism-related arrests in Toronto area, RCMP spokeswoman says) has a total of 7600 views....yet a thread that says "Post A Pic Of Yourself" has 50,000+ views (which is a day younger than the terrorism one)
What exactly does that say about all of us?! :lol:

I'd be concerned if the terrorism thread got more view than the pic thread... we're a bunch of horny, 13 year old nerds on RFD :|

If you haven't noticed, there are about 5 separate threads on terrorism. You can't expect them all to get 50,000 views.

I think it's great that the media isn't goading all of us into believing (or caring about) the propaganda that surrounds the word 'terrorism'.

But RFD is an escape from the negativity that haunts us in the real world. Plus, it's way more fun to post pics than to bicker about which landmark is going to serve as a mass grave site next.
(Oh, I think part of the reason the pic thread is so long is because I have something like 200 posts in it.....oopsies :lol: )

It says that we're more interested in pics of other RFD members than about terrorism-related arrests in Toronto area. Many of us aren't even in Toronto. I didn't even see the thread you mentioned.

99% of forums are like this. Not everybody is concerned about the same topics. Not everybody enjoys talking about politics or internation events. Some would rather spend their time elsewhere. That doesn't make them worse, it just means they think different then you might. Different things turn their crank.

The picture thread is WAY more productive. I regret visiting the terrorism thread. Someone has sympathy for the backlash faced by the muslim community and gets called a "terrorist sympathizer"... then someone else mentions something ignorant about mosques... then someone else, in the same thread, insults the Canadian forces. it's a sad day.

It probably means the terrorists are reading these forums all night(they stay up late cuz they are terrorist right) and are scanning them for people who are "on" to them. I think you have identified yourself as a potential target and i would do a few things if i were you 1- do NOT leave the house under any circumstances 2- switch ip address IMMEDIATELY and finally 3- move to the united states of america and petition for a change allowing for a third presidential term for GEORGE W and thank the lord that he's leading the war on terror :twisted:

It tells me that more people on RFD like to post and follow with threads about the RFD community than threads about terrorism on our home soil. It also tells me that some of these people who post in the former threads, but not the latter, would also make subtle comments about the behavior of RFD community, of which the OP is also guilty of committing. :razz:
(You did post in the picture thread, but not in the terrorism threads ;))
