It was a statement.....
Was it true, or up for debate?
If you got an opinion on something you should nut up or shut up as the saying goes. Come back with some vague silliness about how a person might interpret it and it's up to them. This isn't art film school over here. Say what's on your mind.

Religious persecution begins with mockery, then public outcry, physical altercation, abuse, and could lead to violence , government intervention and incarceration ,fines and deportation. Something we Christians are preparing for. This guy not only showed disrespect, inappropriate behavior , but also forgot our basic freedom of religious practice some demanding traditional apparel.

Just rephrase the question as follows....

"Is a non-Muslim man who tears off the religious garb of a Muslim woman -- whose religion advocates killing or subjugating all non-Muslims -- supposed to be considered a hero?"

The question answers itself: "Yes!"

Yes, that's what Muslims do to non-Muslims.

Philosophy is hard to swallow, when it isn't wanted.
.... and this thread isn't about me.

Symbols of hate and oppression, no matter how subtle it may be, will never be challenged by cowards.
What was unfactual about the philosophic statement?

If it offended anyone and no fault can be found, that is their conscious talking to them.

A man attacking a woman in a place he knows there will be no retribution...that is cowardice.

Let's see him do that on the streets of Riyadh, or Dearborn, MI, or even on Beltline Road in Richardson, TX.

Or, for that matter, in front of me...'cause I'll be armed.

He's a gutless, yellow-bellied cur--attacking an unprotected woman.

Except for government intervention and incarceration ,fines and deportation, the Muslim faith is already there and growing at a faster rate than the government wants you to know.

There is a majority of people that are in complete denial, that we here in the USA, have been drawn into the HOLY WAR that has been raging for way over 2000 years. The Caliphate is not something recently made up.

1929 The Muslim Brotherhood was created and the Nazi's used it well training what we now call Radical Islam.

Really? Here's another question for you. Is a non Christian who bullies/harasses a Christian a hero? After all Christianity believes non Christians should be burned alive.

You see in the Christian faith, if you admit your sins, you are forgiven if you ask and some tolerance to release the pressure for what you did. It is when you run from your sins, when you get the wrath. Pitty, not death for those that do not believe. Satan cast them into the fire of hell when the day of judgement arises.

You don't get death for non-believing, or straying from Christ.



And I bet all you think I'm Christian?

That's not what that verse I quoted says. If all Muslims are to be judged and punished for something the Koran says rather than what they personally do, then it follows that Christians should as well.
