Saying all Pakistanies are bad, rogues, or terrorists is roughly equivalent to saying all americans are Amish. Totally naive. Consider: Percentage of Pakistani Muslims who believe that suicide bombings are justified: 29%* Percentage of American Amish who belief that suicide bombings are justified: 0%** *2005 Pew Global Attitudes Project. ** 2008 jt512 hunch. Jay wow. really. who's naive here? you ever meet a Pakistani? IN Pakistan?? how about meet thier families? Parents? children? The amount of ignorance here just amazes me.
So, anecdotal evidence from meeting a few Pakistani families is more valid than a scientific survey conducted by the Pew Research Center? You, sir, are an idiot.
Edit: Obviously, the probability sample of 1225 interviews which comprised the Pew survey are no match for the fact that you're friends with some nice family in Pakistan.
