[In a thread discussing the parachute found in WA that may have been used by D.B. Cooper]
One of our son's lives near a smaller airport here in Central FL. He and his wife decided to pull over one day so my granddaughter could watch the parachuters jumping out of a plane. Well, when they caught a glimpse of the jumpers, they were quite taken back by what they saw! They were ALL middle eastern men with long beards and all resembled Osama bin Laden!!!

Why?
Look are they aerial suicide bombers? They are going to leap from the plane and parachute onto their targets? Look they could just throw shit out of the plane... Something like a brick or something... or a couple of sticks or a lawn dart or something.
Maybe he walked in on a sikh parachute team...
I've seen parachuters. They wear helmets, identical suits goggles, and are generally too far away to make a good identification so unless they landed four feet away(unlikely) or you went and shook their hands(as you think their Muslim even more unlikely) I think your lying. also if they all looked alike either you suck at being able to tell the difference between one person of a race different then your own from another of the same race or.... Osama bin Laden figured out how to make polyjuice potion.
Wow! A plane that ejects bin Laden clones?
Truly, science never ceases to amaze. Maybe someday they'll invent a plane that ejects clones of me!
Yeeaah... I like the comment made after this:
Oh my! Middle Easterners learning paratrooping right in our own back yard. I wonder when they plan to "drop in" on us?
Nice... The people at RR are really so full of love and understanding.
"One of our son's lives near a smaller airport here in central FL."
I find it rather interesting that one of her sons has many lives and that one of those said lives is located near a piddling airport in the middle of Nowhere-Fuck, Florida.
Damn...!
Fuck they're sprung the real masterplan. Sure we know Osama wanted to lure the US into a protracted war in the Middle East they'd never win and completely destabilise the dollar.
----Apparently it was so they could get good rates for skydiving.
@MrBadAxe:
Then again, to you, anyone with darker skin than yours and any facial hair at all "resembles Osama bin Laden."
Man, ain't that the truth! In 2001 we lived in the San Francisco area and we flew to Las Vegas that year for Christmas. My husband is Indian, is dark-skinned, and wears a neatly trimmed beard and moustache. You would not believe the stares and whispers we endured, especially in the airports!
It reminded me of the Iranian hostage crisis, when dark-skinned people of all ethnicities were presumed to be Iranian and often randomly assaulted by Americans. Dark skin + beard =/= enemies of the state!
gee, i suppose we should ban all middle eastern, osama bin laden lookalikes from parachuting because you're gona get worked up about a new form of terrorist attack? perhaps you should keep quiet- you could be giving the terrorists idea ¬.¬
Of course "They were ALL middle eastern men with long beards and all resembled Osama bin Laden!!!" They were just a few of the 144,000 virgin Jewish men that, according to the book of Revelations, are the only people who will ascend to Heaven.
See, it's like this: The Rapture actually occurred years ago. You missed it. These guys got raptured but some of them came back down to Earth when they found out that Heaven ain't all it's cracked up to be. Nuff said.
Oh no. The world is coming to an end. People of Arab descent, or at least people with darker skin, want to learn to skydive!
What is this world coming to? When I skydive, I only want to do so with white christians who don't want to kill anyone for their beliefs.
Oh, wait...
Proof that people like to do fun things with people that look like / act like / share interests with them.
Besides, most radical Muslims suicide bombers are suicide bombers.
They have no intention of escaping and missing out on their free virgins.

"You think a group of middle eastern guys could get on a plane in Florida without someone checking them out?" Well, it WAS just a little municipal airport, not a great big international airport with airliners and security checkpoints and such.
I guess they figure that if a bunch of skydivers hijack their plane, they can't cause a lot of damage with it 'cause the plane'll be pretty darned small.
"It's rainin' men. Hallej -oops- Insha'allah." :P
So, Glory, you're basically saying your son and his family saw the sky open up and a flock of fundamentalist-jihadist-Muslim-Bin Laden-clones did a free fall in Florida?
As others have pointed out, he must have exceptional eyesight.

(*YAWN *)
So? There's a group of parachuting Elvis impersonators (who featured in the Nicolas Cage/Sarah Jessica Parker/James Caan film "Honeymoon in Vegas"):

Your point?
How do you know it wasn't Jesus and his disciples? They were ALL Middle eastern men, probably had long beards and probably resembled Osama Bin Laden. Granted, Jesus returning in a parachute is a bit odd, but as you folks say his ways are mysterious.
Or maybe you're just trying to spread paranoid, racist rumors.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
