But the mods leave a joke topic like this in serious?
Lol this fucking website
Surely you of all people would know that a controversial opinion =/= a joke.
Looking at the other viewpoint as to why some people might think it's justified (Such as the scumbags who committed the attack) can help to understand how to prevent that from happening again. Simply ignoring the psychology of the enemy isn't going to do anything other than bend over and present for the next one.
That's bogus. It doesn't matter why, what matters preparing so you can stop them from doing it again.
We had this same discussion over why people would study the nazis >.>
Understanding why something happens, how people are led to believe this evil and why they are predisposed to do so in the first place is key to making sure it never happens again.
I think it does matter why, quite a lot infact. Knowing your enemy is knowing how to defeat them, when you are fighting an ideology it's doubly so. Part of preparing to stop them from doing it again is knowing what to look for in other people.
Take the boston bomber for example, if everyone simply went 'Oh what an evil man, he must have been born a monster and is going to die a monster' rather than going 'Okay, so let's find out what kind of bullshit he ate up that led him to do this atrocity' then the next budding bomber is going to be harder to look for. If you find out that he spoke to this preacher, went to this camp and learned to make bombs from this guy you can then track people through those same networks and apprehend them before they strike.
That's called defending yourself properly. We know they're brainwashed by bullshit preachers.
That doesn't mean we need to study them in depth to understand they're crazy and think they're carrying out the invisible sky man's orders.
And you can't destroy an ideology.
Alright, so how do you propose defending ourselves against the jihadists? <.<
And I know this, but that doesn't mean you can't combat it at all. You just don't fight it with bullets and bombs as you would a conventional enemy.
This is why the NSA exists.
Indeed, and GCHQ too. How do they know what to look for in the masses of data they sift through? Aside from the Four Lions who send texts about bombing a boots, the ones who have some semblance of wit about themselves. They have to know what to look for and that involves studying the enemy.

I think it was more 'karma' to do with following the yanks into the middle east to shoot ayrabs. And by karma I mean the same shit as 9/11, retaliation by cowards who rather than fighting an opposing army would rather run around the back and kill the civilians.

targeting civilians like that is rarely justified. More like never.
Well, that's what I was originally thinking but then no doubt someone would bring up the whole Hiroshima/Nagasaki argument again and start justifying that.
That wasn't justified.
It was just the least evil option.
Which is a form of justifying it, not in the obvious way but saying why it was done (even as the lesser of two evils) means that choosing that course of action could be justified over the other.
The word "justified" doesn't apply.
It was the "better" option, but you can't really justify killing civvies. Personally I think it should've been dropped on a military target.
It's different ways of using it but yeah, I do agree <.< You can make excuses/explanations for the killing of civilians as an attempt to justify it but I doubt you could ever actually justify it (Never say never though) And yeah, I'm sure they could have found a target that would have demonstrated it's power just as well without the absurd amounts of collateral damage.

Aside from the bait, and the potential arguments of western interventionism causing middle easterners/muslims to retaliate - targeting civilians like that is rarely justified.
Flying one into the pentagon you could argue is justifiable, given that it's a military target belonging to an 'enemy' of the jihadists but then again any and all kuffir are fair game for bombing I doubt anyone could believe that they give two shits whether a bombing is justifiable or not to outsiders.

Watching rednecks crash cars into each other, I'd say that's reasonably entertaining on it's own.
That being said, I find most motorsports tear-inducingly dull. A bit like football really, only worth watching for the fights/plebs being trampled in the riots.

I'll die before I let some inbred royal dictate my future. I just want to let people know he doesn't speak for all of us Americunts. This post hurt to read.
>unironically not shitting on monarchy, objectively the worst form of government in history.
>not knowing what a Constitutional Monarchy is
This is part of the reason we think Americans are dumb. They understand very little about what they hate.
Great way to generalize.
It is every non-American's duty to generalise you strange lot a lot; yet still somehow a lot less than you do to everyone else.
*generalize
We strange lot? Quite an ignorant assertion.
Says the person correcting my CORRECT SPELLING. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_British_English_spelling_differences#-ise.2C_-ize_.28-isation.2C_-ization.29
Just to point out, it's usually just good natured banter between yanks and brits with the spelling corrections on here. We have to tell them that they spell their words incorrectly and they try to protest that simplifying the language (See: Dumbing it down) is best.
Simplification is a good thing, like they did for the Chinese written language and the German shifts in usage of consonants. The problems occur when you try to simplify words that are spelt that way for a certain reason (See: paedophile/paediatrician).
Ah well, that certainly is a good point <.<

One of my favourite authors wrote a 40k novel: Eye of Terror. It was pretty decent. Imaginative.
So I bet that isn't available. Hm?
This one right?  Given how I can't even find a paperback version of First and Only, I would really doubt that GW/BL have this in print anymore :/

Not sep7agon obviously, but this place http://www.blacklibrary.com/40k shit and bitter old fan time so if neither of those things are your thang then you can go <_< The very first forum I ever joined was here, then they burned it all down. One day I woke up and they'd literally just torched the whole thing, all the fanfictions people had written and the community was just gone like that *clicks*. But at least they still sold books and posters and other merchandise, so it was alright. Except that's no longer the case. They sell maybe 20 actual books on a bookshop website, instead it's all Ebooks (The heresy of this place calling itself a library makes me cry) and MP3s. Sold at paperback/hardback RRP too. Can I find any of the Cain Novels? Nope, they canned them apparently. Can I find any of the Inquisition books; Ravenor and Eisenhorn etc? Pfft fuck no. What about anything other than fucking generic space marine battles #21312434? LOL no. So now I have to get all of my books through amazon or pray that Waterstones sometimes has the one I'm looking for. Now one of the more embittered theories as to why the Cain novels and the Inquisition ones have vanished is because of the whole 13th black crusade retconn. Where they quietly just undid any references to it ever having taken place because they didn't like how it played out (Global Campaign that ended in a stalemate a few years ago) *sigh* And they are still trying to tempt me back with the promise of Mechanicus figurines, which is working but it seems that GW and it's affiliates just get worse and worse every bloody year.

One bus not enough. July 7 2005 best day if my life.
That's kind of like the boots bombing in four lions though. You'd struggle to find people who still gave a shit about it, when we put up with the IRA doing far worse all the time for the previous few decades <.<
Doing worse? The IRA did nothing wrong. God willed it.
Mashallah, uh I mean... feck where's me pot o gold.
You want a knee cappin?

no
We don't have affordable robot legs yet >_>
Then shut yer bake.

Not while those filthy americans still draw breath. Spoiler I doubt it though, idiots will always be scared out outsiders. In terms of discrimination and the like, a fairer society with more recourse against the people who do that kind of shit seems to be heading this way.
