And the policemen--and the aftermath--who paid for that ?

The city, of course. It was a building owned by the school district.

Now, why don't you answer MY questions?

Are you saying there are more left-wing militias in the USA than right-wing militias? :lamo
You may want to rethink whose thinking you are calling completely and mind-numbingly ignorant--though I'm not saying that about you--just sayin .

Nimby, a quick look at the FBI's most wanted domestic terrorist list reveals its mostly islamists and leftists.
A similar pattern is demonstrated with world terrorism.

FBI — Most Wanted Terrorists

Just a small factoid here. A friend of mine I was talking to today went to High School there.

Should he also announce that all of those TV shows, theatrical shows and movie producers should also stop being irresponsible and troublemakers?
 
Re: Shooting at Muhammad Art Exhibit in Texas

Josie said:
Nope. The terrorists were the ones who were offended and, therefore, took action against the "infidels". I couldn't care less about the feelers of a terrorist. Terrorists =/= all Muslims.

False. Muslims are offended when their prophet is disrespected, period. Extremists act out violently. Most Muslims aren't extremists and take the disrespect without acting out. Funny you would think that the two dead Muslims were the only two offended.

So give me a scenario where making fun of islam is done the "right way".

I certainly would, and particularly in light of this incident. Its irresponsible.

The attack was announced by ISIS shortly before the attacks happened, and ISIS is taking responsibility.

They weren't desparate poor souls (no need for empathy), they were rational people who really believe they need to kill people they disagree with, as many as possible-with bombs and guns.

No, NOT GELLER. The terrorists put her life on the line, they are to blame fully.

Its a false dichotomy-choosing between my rights and safety. You should take note.

No, he should not defend ugly, hateful, gratuitously provocative and irresponsible speech.

They've been answered--but you already know that.

How far are you willing to let Geller go with this "free speech" thingy of hers before it really does turn tragic?
And how will you feel then when you know that we are still at war with terrorists and should have slapped her with SEDITION?
Why invite danger just so Geller can make a name for herself and get rich?

And who will get BLAMED when things really do go wrong?
I've been on this board long enough to know how that one plays out .

Thanks!

Here's the one I'd like to hear your response to....

nimby --- you say that you do not believe that making fun of religion should be illegal across the board. You say it's "the way" pamela geller did it.

So give me a scenario where making fun of islam is done the "right way".

Do you agree with "the way" Geller is inciting terrorists to "bring it on" while we are still in the midst of a 14-year war on terrorism ?

Gratuitously making fun of religion, or any provocation against a religion for the benefit of a good laugh is ignorant and irresponsible. Geller is doing her damnedest to get somebody killed.
