They might pray for peace!

2. Some of my ancestors were Quakers, so I'm probably under
surveillance too. (They did get kicked out of the church, but they were clearly terraist sympathizers.)

3. God help us ALL!!!
If the Quakers want to take over the country, they can do it in a heartbeat -- because they're not dependent on foreign oil to power their horse-and-buggy war machines!

5. No need to contact "homeland security" (insecurity?)
They are probably all cataloged, traced, photographed and wiretapped, just like everybody else.

13. Jeez louise, that ain't a friendly...
that's Barbara Bush, beautiful mind and all...

"Why should we hear about body bags and deaths," Barbara Bush said on ABC's "Good Morning America" on March 18, 2003. "Oh, I mean, it's not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"

12. Were they "Lurking" down the street?
Lurking is a common trait for quakers, and others that might profess this
type of philosophy. Lurking is one the key terrorist trait.
"According to files found in their homes and wiretaps by the govt.

15. I'm a dangerous subversive.
I went to Quaker boarding school, and my family used to attend Quaker Meeting when I was a kid. Better call Homeland Security ASAP.:P

19. Then I hope they're wirtetapping you too.
(I'm assuming you saw the news reports about the surveillance that went on of the Quakrs and other "dangerous" anti-war groups.)

20. When you see them
avert your gaze. Don't look into their eyes or they will use their subversive power to implant the Quaker agenda.

If you look away too late and find yourself feeling peaceful and friendly THEN call Homeland Security so they can watch you too.

21. TRIVIA: Name the presidents who were Quakers.
And don't cheat.

From what I know about Quakers, I bet there are quite a few of them here on DU. The Quakers I know are very progressive.
