No, not because I say so, because it doesn't. Can you present a cogent argument that correlates them? I'll wait. Probably for a long time judging by your post.

And yes, there is an actual liquor store just outside the gate of Victory Base Camp here in good ole' Iraq. | Good to hear that, PN.

I have maybe a general idea that alcholol may be banned in countries like Iran and maybe wherever the Taliban is in Afghanistan. But I hope to be wrong about that.

That made absolutely no sense. I can't even call it bull because I have no idea what you are talking about.
What "premise" is it that you think you are refuting?
The best I can tell you are arguing against something that no one ever said but I can't even tell what it is that you think someone said.

| There were Muslims people in several countries celebrating to events of 911. Some still do commemorate the date. Someone compared that to Black people in LA being pissed off about the police being found not guilty by an entirely white jury being a reflection of all black people. I pointed out that the motivation behind the L.A. riots and celebrations of a tragedy such as 911 are totally different.
And I pointed out another couple of riot situations by white people...and now you act like you don't understand what I'm saying. Yeah sure. You didn't know what you were talking about from the beginning. I thought you had me on ignore anyway. What a lying sack.
