What a bunch of politically correct BS you wrote. It sickens me excusing these radical nutjobs behavior just because you have some sort of apologetic attitude towards radical Islam.

The people inciting death threats against this woman are terrorists. They intent to instill fear in everyone protesting freedom of expression and the idea that not everyone should live by the laws of someone else's religion. Yes, these people who are turning violent are evil, pure evil, and I could give a crap if they're offended by a stupid drawing. If they have a problem with it they are free to write a letter or protest peacefully.

Then again, I'm sure I'm offending some by writing this (which I could care less about). So I guess I deserve to die now.
You obviously don't care to have a discussion of any substance. Good evening.

Freedom of speech is not quashed by good judgment.

Not even close.

If there are no robbers in the area, do not invite some over. If no one is trying to kill you, do not give them a motive to do so.
I think we both get what the other is saying - at this point we are pissing around with bad analogies. I may not be too far away from where you stand - see some of my earlier posts. But I can never agree that just because a minority will be pissed, we do not do something legal.

Dinner time - gotta go.

No,but I also do not rely upon the platitudes of Muslims that despite all the evidence to the contrary,their religion is peaceful.

Perhaps you should go and actually meet a Muslim and talk with him. It would be enlightening.
