Gunsights' biblical references concern US and UK forces

[Izzy]

Glass the Middle East.

Problem solved.

Prove me wrong.

"i dont mind you being religious as long as you dont force it down other peoples' throats"
"WTF A BIBLE MESSAGE HARDLY VISIBLE ON A GUN I SHOOT"

cmon i think everyone can laugh at that

I mind people being religious.

There goes my double standard.

[Ksandra]

So if you turn 500 people willing to blow themselves up in the name of Allah, you now have 750, or 1000, or 2000.

Because devout Muslims that aren't extreme now believe themselves to be in another holy war fighting for their religious land from invading Christians, again.

I think you're thinking too far into this, and under estimating how much propaganda they already get. Pretty much any Muslim that will get pissed off of this, is probably already pissed anyway.

[Chicomagiko]

Wow. Seriously? I expect that kind of reasoning and deduction from you in spam but here? Wow.

[Ksandra]

What can I say, I know how easily influenced my people are. You should see some of the shit they say over there. This is nothing in comparison.

Pissed off does not = action. Straw that broke the camels back etc.

There may be people who support the extremists but don't actively participate. A rally to fight the christian invaders can be that tipping point. I don't think anyone over here is WHAT THE FUCK BRO LET'S GET MAD

It's more deductive reasoning that even the soldiers using the guns are like "Hey man, thanks but no thanks." Because they get it, they understand the implications of this shit being on their weapons.

Needs more Stone Cold, oh and:

Revelation 6:8

So does this mean this thread is going to be 10+ pages by the time I wake up?

[Cadsuane]

God I hope so. Lief should be here shortly if anyone mentions anything vaguely political.

[Sol-Blackguy]

Well in that case: Ahem Jesus was black, Ronald Regan is the devil and the government lied to us about 9/11. Thank you!

[Dakota]

Damn... Just checked my Trijicon sights and no religious inscription there. I was expecting if they have been putting them on their sight products for more than two decades then there would be a good chance it would be there too. Maybe they only do it for their military contracts

[Kurokikaze]

Why is it so hard to keep religion the fuck away from everything else?

[Kryssan]

Interesting. They're just now learning about this? I think it's more like they're just now caring about it.



This is not new. At all. Trust me, gunsights are not the only military/war items with biblical passages or Christian prayers inscribed onto them as a standard practice. And the other things they are inscribed upon are nowhere near as... hidden, I guess is the way to say that?

[Sol-Blackguy]

Would you feel the same way if there were a line of military gun sights that had "Darwinism" inscribed on them?

[Guitarman]

Would you feel the same way if there were a line of military gun sights that had "Darwinism" inscribed on them?

if the sights said darwinism the barrels would curve back to the weilder's face.

[Kurokikaze]

Run. I'll hold em off while I can.

Between this, Cheney's Iraq documents with bible verses on them, and the fact that the head of Blackwater is a christian fundamentalist (and his company was involved in the murder of iraqui civilians, of which they will not suffer any consequences because of prosecutorial misconduct) i think the US government is doing a swell job not looking like they are there to wage religious war.

[Brill Weave]

In my opinion we aren't taking this far enough. Why don't our soldiers have giant crucifxes on the backs of their uniforms like the old Knights Templar. Instead of unit colors, they need to carry a giant cross behind them so that these heathen fuckers know God is here to kick their fucking asses.
