If you are an American concerned about the demographics of Byzantium, you have a lot of time on your hands.
I wonder if just the ones who hate France went to the soccer game. Anybody?
It only takes 5 minutes or so really to learn what you need to know.

It's good to know the basics at least about active conflicts imo. It also makes one less gullible and less prone to being manipulated

So, a neutral crowd at a soccer game is not indication of how many feel right?
You don't ask yourself why they might feel like that, though still inexcusable... Instead you (general) make the convenient conclusion or you let TheBlaze or Hanity or whomever take you for a ride.
And you don't figure that these are just average people from that country and would be a good indicator to how the people feel because of MSNBC and the View.
Yeah I don't know what that is, maybe cause I'm a chord cutter.
Here is a deadspin article on the incident.

And no, a soccer match is not like Rupp arena. There's only a very small section of blue hairs; the rest, particularly a match like that ,would be filled with a certain segment of the population.
I understand not having particular interest in Byzantium which incidentally Syria was a part of, but I don't understand willful ignorance. There were games worldwide that weekend after Paris, why only Turkey?

we're being set up for massive internal conflict
it's almost funny
PS: count me in with the small group that thinks some of these mass shootings are staged events….like military drills being performed 'for the greater good'

I don't care what other people think of you CRO, but contrary to what you might believe I like you because you at least post consistently. Albeit wrong but, consistent.
Heh ok I like your posts to 
I am passionate about this issue which is why I post on it, also think I can bring a somewhat unique perspective to it because of life experience and the part of Europe I originally am from. For instance Turks where trying to take over my ancestors for centuries, thankfully unsuccessfully, there is certainly no love lost there when I see Turkish nationalism.

Byzantium was a city (as opposed to the Byzantine/Ottoman empires)
If you're going to talk down to people, at least get your facts in order first.
I had some run ins with some Turks in the 70's in Frankfurt Germany both good and bad. I was surrounded one night (outside of a bar) by three of them, one carrying a straight razor and they were about to cut me up. As luck would have it, (or as I like to say, the Grace of God), there were a group of people walking by as I was being confronted by them and I just walked right out with the group because they did not want witnesses. Going back into the bar and coming out with some back up, we saw them running down the street to avoid any other confrontation. Another instance had me facing off against a bunch of them in broad daylight as they were attempting to beat up an American soldier at a stop light in the center of the city. On the other hand, I knew a couple of them that I had befriended and they after hearing of my confrontations were ready (in their words) to kill the ones who had threatened me. They were both cab drivers and would take me where ever I wanted to go for free.Heh ok I like your posts to

I'm not talking down, really I just don't know how to convey the idea any better that an informed opinion is better than an uninformed one.
Byzantium is the entire region too, it's Latin

If that "informed" opinion includes more links to the mental gymnastics and duplicitous excuse-making of authors similar to that Deadspin column, perhaps the readers of this forum would be better off staying "uninformed" of your nonsense.
Istanbul isn't some backwater cut off from the western world. Their behavior at that soccer game was exactly what it appeared to be and the candid behavior of the football players/coaches proves that.
You think you have something, but you don't. I agree the behavior was abhorrent and it's no skin off my back if you accept my "duplicitous excuse making" or not.
IF you want to cover your face in public, be prepared to give up some of your rights. Be who you are and not hide yourself because it suggest you have something to hide. One caveat, if your really butt ugly, I understand.
actually, you accused me and others of not knowing "world events" when we pointed out a basic fact that a stadium full of Turks in a soccer game booed the moment of silence for Parisian victims and then cheered allahu akbar, a phrase ISIS uses often when slaughtering people.
Congrats, you're probably the only person in America that would defend Turk terrorist sympathizers and then claim you didn't afterwards.
apparently Saudi terrorist organizations are "honey potting" American/European young Muslim men via online dating sites, then having the women radicalize the young Tebo...i mean, "virgins"; once they get married, it's a free ticket back to the US for those Trojan Horsefaces. I **** you not.
I can't wait till get Tebow gets caught in a 10 man gayng bang while giving abortions to Satanist girls citing the Quran.
EXCEPT for this guy...
Don't even need a mask. Who would have ever guessed that these two were the same guy?
NYDN puts part of the blame on one of the victims:
Make no mistake, as disgusting and deservedly dead as the hate-filled fanatical Muslim killers were, Thalasinos was also a hate-filled bigot. Death can’t change that. But in the U.S., we don’t die for speaking our minds. Or we’re not supposed to anyway.
Thalasinos was an anti-government, anti-Islam, pro-NRA, rabidly anti-Planned Parenthood kinda guy, who posted that it would be “Freaking Awesome” if hateful Ann Coulter was named head of Homeland Security. He asked, “IS 1. EVERY POLITICIAN IS BOUGHT AND PAID FOR? 2. EVERY POLITICIAN IS A MORON? 3. EVERY POLITICIAN IS RACIST AGAINST JEWS?” He also posted screeds like, “You can stick your Muslim Million Man march up your asses,” and how “Hashem” should blow up Iran.http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/san-bernardino-bloodbath-born-bigots-article-1.2456491

Won't happen but US should immediately suspend any visas or passports being allowed entry from any nation with ties to radical Islamists.
