I was too young to really understand Oklahoma City, but i’m scared to death of skinny white men NOW (I mean that’s what the government is pretty much made up of isn’t it?).

@adreamofautumn Yeah, but not all are skinny.

Don’t forget that the bomber was also a christian.

@ragingloli Therefore it is only logical to assume ALL Christians are trying to blow things up!

I was going to include him being christian in the question but wikipedia said… “McVeigh professed his belief in “a God”, although he said he had “sort of lost touch with” Catholicism and “never really picked it [back] up.” The Guardian reported that McVeigh wrote a letter claiming to be an agnostic.”
So I left it out because it was kinda vague

Yes and also short fat ones! And especially in packs, I will cross the street or go into a store to avoid them. I think it was safer in Singapore.

Not at all. In fact, I’m surprised anymore when I do see a skinny man of any shade.

Only when I’m canoeing with John Voight and Burt Reynolds.

hey! I’m a skinny white guy! But no seriously, you can normally tell the strange ones from the normal ones just from a simple conversation.

@RandomMrdan “normally” bring the key word

But the neighbors of serial killers and assorted criminals always say what nice guys they were, minded their own business, never bothered anyone, always smiled and said hello.

Mcveigh was the ‘Manchurien Candidate’ of the (Centrist-Hard Left) New World Order-Very efficient redirection of Hate from those who perpetrate most domestic crimes of Opportunity to a brain-washed white man-who represents all Christian/Catholic white men by perception…
