You know, as much as it disgusts me that these fanatics are blathering about burning the Quran, and also the crazed media hype about it, it disturbs me even MORE that people all over the WORLD are shivering in fear about what the muslims may do in retalliation!!!
Then you can stop being disgusted. No one is "shivering in fear."
We do not "shiver in fear" here in California because we will have earthquakes. Yet we still take action to protect ourselves from earthquakes. We certainly would not go out of our way, even if could, to cause more.
The desire to protect lives does not come from fear. It comes from being responsible adults.

We don't have to be afraid. But if you lean in that direction, you certainly should be more afraid now than you were a few weeks ago.
Fred Phelps is a crazy old man that doesn't accurately represent Christians.
Now, how many people have to say that for the United States to be considered as disowning the man? You know, like people want Muslims to disown the terrorists?

I hardly recognize this country anymore, the southern border is over run by foreigners who threaten our security, and now we have to be afraid that we may get attacked by Muslims due to some idiot burning a freaking BOOK.
When did America get so wimpy?
Right there is the problem. If the press ignored them only the few nuts around them would even know.
I guess you haven't heard about this new thing called the internet.... Chit spreads like wildfire on it....
