There is no argument between us and you

There is no argument between us and you




We are not your kind of people.
Speak a different language.
We see through your lies.

We are not your kind of people.
Won't be cast as demons,
Creatures you despise.

We are extraordinary people.
We are extraordinary people.
We are extraordinary people.
We are extraordinary people.

Not sure about ‘extraordinary’, but the Muslims I’ve known in my life have been perfectly nice people.

Not everyone views Muslims as demons.

Holy crap dude?

Hate to burst your bubble, but no human being was around 13.8 billion years ago, and humans won't be around 10 billion years from now.

The only thing all 7 billion humans have is now, while we are alive as individuals. 

So if you want to be "extraordinary" stop dwelling in selfish tribalism.

There are good humans in every nation, and bad humans in every nation. 

I don't "despise" entire groups of humans. I do despise bad logic.

How about you treat individuals as such?

He can’t treat individuals as individuals. He’s a bigot, so that’s simply not in his wheelhouse.

You got me.

I really want to throat punch anyone who brags about French bread or snails. 

What the f is a baguette or escargot?

To me it is teeth destroying and slimy worms.

'Baguette' is a French word meaning 'wand' or 'baton'. It describes the shape of the loaf.  'Escargot' is a French word derived from the Greek for 'edible shellfish'.

Questions like that are a chief reason why the rest of the world tend to think of Americans - rightly or wrongly - as provincial louts.
