If you don't want to live in a world like that, then this stops now.
“self-censor”? They ask for self censoring, which makes me wonder if elites do not remember that girls, in Afghanistan,were being murdered for having squeaky shoes? Perhaps the muslims should self censor their responses, then again that would be against their ideology.
Responsibility is such an awesome burden. Small wonder that so few take it up.
And we have not seen much of it exercised lately, with these plays with words and casual sophistry being tossed off as if that were supposed to be clever.
The West’s relationship with the Islamic world has ALWAYS been inflamed, starting with the Hegira, the migration of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and his followers from Mecca to Medina in June 622. They were escaping retribution for their felonious behavior, and had Mohammed and his followers been wiped out then, history would have been vastly different. Subsequently, the Muslims, with very hardened attitudes, made their version of a vow, “Never again!” Mohammed went on a rampage, destroying the practice of every other religion he came into contact with, either by declaring it subordinate to the worship of Allah, or by murdering all the priests and chief followers of that religion in a very public way, forcing the remainder of the members of that sect to flee into exile, while the Islamic Crusade proceeded to sweep in and repopulate the land with their corps of marauders and converted members, who had sworn to uphold the objective of conquest and conversion of all to Islam and their unswerving devotion to Allah and the Prophet Mohammed.
Mohammed was a very abrasive personality on his best day, and just plain crazy most of the rest of the time. In his way, he probably defined “narcissism” in its worst possible meaning. It was always about him, Allah was just kind of an afterthought tacked on later.
Some of the things the muslims and their clerics say are similar to yelling fire in a crowded theater in that they are harmful. Making irreverent fun of an ancient dead murderous criminally insane ideologue is not the same as issuing a fatawa.
That quote refers to there being no fire.
If there actually IS a fire, however, trying to suppress the same announcement is attempted murder.
Which is exactly what the author is trying to do.
These writers must live under rocks. They think evil is ok. Sad part, there are many like them.
The press loves to state the obvious and pretend likes it’s profound insight. Unfortunately, the only speech that ever needs protecting is unpopular speech. A speech about puppies never gets grief.
I’m presuming this is a pretty liberal paper, but public comments on the article are not amused! Nice to see.
The theater is fully engulfed...Top to bottom...
So everyone remain in your seats and calmly, quietly, and politely discusses with each other the temperature of the theater.
gak...
That’s right and that’s why the politicians and news folk need to stop saying over and over that Islam is the religion of peace.
Christianity doesn’t teach murder as a way to get to Heaven. Islam teaches to kill everyone who doesn’t believe as they do. That’s why nobody complains about South Park and Family Guy and all the networks and TV shows.
I wonder what they’d be saying if Christians started killing abortion operators. Oh, wait! We already know. They are prosecuted for murder. Never mind.
Unfortunately many Christian preachers also fear islam more than they fear Christ. They also fear the government more than they fear Christ.
The individual absolutely DOES have the right to cry “FIRE!” in a crowded theater...In fact, he has a solemn duty IF there is in fact a fire...
And we have the right to hold that individual to account if he is not telling the truth and injury results...
The Muslim world is at war with the West, and those people sounding the alarm are telling us the truth...Will it take another “9/11”-type attack or a Pearl Harbor event to get enough of us to wake up? I think it will...
Question is, will it be too late by then?
These chicken**** commie libs in the “media” need to apply this same “responsibility” when it comes to dealing with Americans, Christians and conservatives too. Just because WE don’t murder and behead those who “dis” us, it doesn’t mean that the “progressieve” commie libs have the right to walk and trample all over US.
Self restraint is the problem. We should all act on our base impulses.
The problem with the author and his fellow travelers is that they are too stupid to accept the fact that Moose Limbs are using the “bridges of understanding and tolerance” as a Trojan Horse to gain access to our communities and lull us into a false sense of security. All the while, during these idiotic dialogues, the Moose Limbs are sharpening their knives, building bombs, preaching hate, forming sleeper cells, and making plans to kill as many of us as possible.
Astute point
Limp wristed surrender from the juvenile Mercury News.
No shock here.
