Meh? I guess we could call them Muslim-Super-Psycho-Freak-A-Leak-Sons-of-Bitches??? But Terrorist just seems to be a little more simple. (Just for Garry, substitute Muslim for any other religion, nationality, etc just in case they aren't Muslim this time)

How does it matter? It's just another word. There are many other words which have many definitions and varied usage. Like 'nigger', 'gay' etc..

So what your saying is when you see a man with a bomb strapped to his chest your not supposed to scream terrorist but scream theres a man with a bomb but by that time the man has already detanated his bomb when we could of easily said terrorist and everyone would of ran away mybe saving more that wy i think if theres a towl head out there we should be able to keep saying terrorist be honest when u say a muslim walkiing down the street holding his hands keeping his coat forcefully closed you dont feal a little endangered or threatened?

Side: No
