And that will just solve all of the problems with Muslims right. A fine won't do it.

Laws regulating "hate speech" are a popular liberal position. Very anti-free speech.

A negative reaction to protesters is not the same thing as restricting free speech. The negative reaction is simply opposing free speech. Should be obvious to you.

Problems do not get solved by brushing them under a damn rug. Or by making the situation something it is not. Gees maybe certain people do not want people talking about the damn truth here.

And they win, when we can no longer talk about a problem that is what they want, "YA THINK"

And things will not get solved, by side stepping the issue, or not addressing the real problem, so make all the excuses some of you can and will.

I respect people who talk truth in the face of tragedy. And those who wish to see the problem for what it is, and guess what it is what it is, and there ain't no changing that.

A barbaric mind, heart and soul, does not give a damn, about if we talk or not talk about an issue, they do not think rationale.

Thanks, Orwell. Yes, those who are criticized for speaking too freely will bring about the end of free speech. Got it. You people need serious help.

Europe is essentially being ravaged because of the liberal guilt that it can't seem to shake. Anti-free speech laws are anti-western civilization. Anyone who advocates for them should move to the middle east with the radical Muhammadans, who despise it, because they aren't compatible with the west. Guess what? Free speech means free speech, and it doesn't only apply to the speech that you approve of. That's the core concept.

Not surprising, since much of the Q'ran is based on the Old Testament.

There are lots of conflicting instructions in both the Bible and the Q'ran.
Wrong.

Christianity is a New Testament religion. There are no legal edicts to kill in the new testament. In the Q'ran, there are legal edicts to maim and kill for small "crimes". Sharia is a legal system with tough penalties. Isis is implementing it in Iraq right now and beheading children. Do you wish to see pictures? How dare you try to draw intelelctually legitimate parallels between Muslim violence and Christians. They simply don't exist.

Yes. HappyInTexas already informed me that Christians don't believe in the Books of Genesis or Exodus. Really quite shocking!

I have thought about the conflict between Faith of Islam and the assumption of secular rules and Law in the West. I have concluded these differences are too great to reconcile and in order to preserve our essential freedoms of religion, speech and travel we must destroy Islam as thoroughly as the Romans Destroyed Carthage. This is not for political or economics. It is for survival of Western Culture.

Would be very different religion if it were. It has been hijacked by those who choose to lug around Old Testament instead.

Sounds like a rhetoric ISIS is working with except that they are at the opposite side (the philosophy is the same).

There are over a billion Muslims around the world. How exactly do you plan to destroy Islam?
