They do have slightly more unification than radical Islamic groups. Not many white supremacist groups view other groups as black people.

Might have some one's eye out.... > You think that is worse that the kids that died from them? Three children -- ages 4,7, and 13 -- are known to have died in lawn dart-related incidents. In the U.S. for 2001, there were 29,573 deaths from firearms, distributed as follows by mode of death: Suicide 16,869; Homicide 11,348; Accident 802; Legal Intervention 323; Undetermined 231.(CDC, 2004) This makes firearms injuries one of the top ten causes of death in the U.S. The number of firearms-related injuries in the U.S., both fatal and non-fatal, increased through 1993, but has since declined steadily.(CDC, 2001) However, firearms injuries remain a leading cause of death in the U.S., particularly among youth (CDC, 2004). Every year there are 2,400 pool-related drownings from various causes among kids aged 1 to 14. Yep, lawn darts are a menace.

The Vincennes transmitted that warning on a military frequency which airliners don't have the receivers for. Why they didn't broadcast it on a civilian frequency ? They thought it was an F-14 ! The fact is that they didn't even know it was an airliner despite having the most up-to-date radars etc.! Bloody idiotic Yank sailors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_Air_Flight_655 Graham
