If you come to Texas and shoot somebody we will shoot you back!
um.. no.
In Texas, we shoot back!
Up North, they would be lamenting the use of lethal force against these poor men who were provoked by right wing terrorists, offering their relatives citizenship and a payoff, and investigating the officers involved for murder while apologizing to all the other followers of religion of peace .
Rush was spot on today when he pointed out that a muslim who will kill you for drawing mohammed will also kill you for being a homosexual. Perfect example of leftist cognitive dissonance.
Gets down to another core First Amendment issue. The “scripture” of the Koran appears to state many doctrines that violate our guaranteed freedoms under the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Most followers of Islam believe that Allah’s word as revealed in the Koran is sacred above all other laws of man or religious doctrine. When followers of Islam assert the doctrines of the Koran over others who are not Muslims or over any Americans in detriment to their natural and civil rights, then we feel that Islam must yield. When followers of Islam use violence or the threat of violence to coerce people into adhering to their religious doctrines, that is called terrorism.
The quandary occurs when this is considered with the natural inalienable right of conscience and another First Amendment prohibition/right: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;”
Surely Muslims, Christians, Jews, etc. have the right to believe whatever doctrine they wish and to hold that as the one word of God. Surely the government may not reach in and change religious doctrine or scripture. However, where are the exact limits of exercise of that right of conscience/religion which ranges from the extreme Muslim shooting of cartoonists, to pharmacists refusing to provide morning after pills, to Christians refusing to bake a wedding cake? Conversely, where is the boundary placed on the state in compelling behavior contrary to individual’s religious belief on behalf of an other’s rights? ...Interesting....
Entering Maine, jahadist coming here will collect their 72 virgins.
Waiting for the Koran flushing contest........
That should bring ‘em out of the woodwork.......
Anyone criticizing Gellar is the enemy: period.
Brilliant.
Sorry, but the best two drawing were the outlines in chalk on the ground.
“Free speech aside, why would anyone do something as provocative as hosting a Muhammad drawing contest, New York Times reporter Rukmini Callimachi tweeted.”
Because we don’t intend to set “free speech aside”, you idiot NYTimes “reporter” - that was the *whole point* of that exercise - that we refuse to set “free speech aside” just because some pinheads living in the 7th century have got their burkhas in a wad.
Well said.

“Sorry, but the best two drawings were the outlines in chalk on the ground.”
Dead on (pardon the pun).
She got it right back at her. It was a joy to see.
His name is Cruz.
Watch for the Boston Bombers tactic to become the preferred method of their terrorism.
I just happened to see a movie a few minutes ago in which Spanish Knights attack invading moors by driving a herd of PIGS through their camp.
Nothing like a good Hog fry when there are mohammedans about.
“The attendees of the contest were in fact, disarmed.”
True. And while the meme of Texas being “pro-gun” is tenacious, here is a quick quiz. What do Illinois, Texas, New York, Kalifornia, Floriduh, and South Carolina have in common?
A: they’re the only states that completely ban the open carry of handguns in public!
In January 17,2015, and in the same public school center, there was a Stand with the Prophet rally by Muslims, a pro-Shariah law event, by supporters Al-Qaida and Isis organized by one of the terrorists implicate in the bombing of the garage of the NY World Trade Center in 2003. I wonder if those who try to blame the organizers of the First Annual Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest, for the Muslim terrorist attack would have justified if some patriotic American had irrupted in Muslim rally on January 2015 and made a massacre of Islamic terrorists. After all, Americans are profoundly offended by the abuse of our freedoms by those who made the Muslim rally in support of the savages that decapitate, crucify and burned Christians alive, a real grievance more justified than the alleged offense provoked among the Islamic fanatics by the Mohamed cartoons.
