With Pamela Geller's Prophet Muhammad cartoon stunt in Texas, hate rears its ugly face again
NY Daily News ^ | Tuesday, May 5, 2015 | Linda Stasi

Looks like Pamela Geller will get her wish: More dead Americans at the hands of radical Muslims. Hell, the hatemonger finally even got ISIS to pay attention to her.

Last week Geller — whose repulsive anti-Muslim ad campaign caused the MTA to ban all religious, opinion and political ads — held a $10,000 contest in Texas. The aim? To draw caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad, which she knows is forbidden by most Muslims and frowned upon by the rest.

The result? Two violent radical Muslims opened fire on the group, and the shooters ended up dead at the hands of the police. Yesterday ISIS claimed credit and vowed to kill more Americans.

Violence and its ugly brother, violent protest, is the lowest form of human expression and runs counter to what most of the great religious and philosophical prophets, from Jesus to Muhammad to Martin Luther King to Mahatma Gandhi, preached.

But so is hate-filled propaganda against any one religion. Geller, like ISIS and al Qaeda, revel in hate and nothing would make any of them happier than to be the catalyst for the killing of hundreds of innocent Americans to prove a point. Geller would be a hero to the hateful. Damn the cost in innocent lives, damn the heartache.

I didn't see a wish from Pamela Geller that she wanted more dead Americans at the hands of radical Muslims. When an article starts off with a bald-faced lie, then you know the rest of it isn't going to be any more than the same kind of lies!

What I do see from Pamela Geller is that she is very explicitly standing FOR the First Amendment, in the part about Freedom of Speech -and- the part about freedom of religion -- neither of which ISIS wants to allow in the least!

AND ALSO ... what comes with these two parts, PLUS freedom of the press ... is the ability and CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT to criticize any religion as much as one wants to do!

Mohammed wasn't a prophet. He was demon-posessed; a liar, a pedophile, and a murderer.

He was NOT a prophet.

So I guess since we don’t want to upset the muslims we should all submit to shariah law right now so they don’t go all jihad on us.......

Couldn’t stand reading more, did the author suggest changing to less offensive ideas like placing religious icons in urine or scat instead of this radical idea of drawing cartoons?

Hey Linda, when you come up for air from your breathless hyperbole, you’ll need to visit the middle east where ISIS lunatics are killing Christians by the bushel.

Perhaps you could talk them out of it.

Idiot.

Note that others could say that about Jesus, too. Christians consider Jesus a priest, a prophet and the Son of God. As to whether anyone wants to accept that is another matter and is a person’s own choice. One can argue the point with Jesus, just as they can with Mohammed.

The point here being that everyone does not have to believe it about Jesus or Mohammed and that it’s a CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT to have the potential political capability to criticize Jesus just as it is to criticize Mohammed.

Is this a back-handed slap at the looters in Baltimore, Ferguson and Oakland?

Hey! Al Sharpton! Look! Racist! Right over there. Behind that typewriter. The one with hairy armpits. Sells like patchouli oil and marijuana.

". . . hate rears its ugly head again"

Yeah. Leftist hate.

Nothing more hate-filled than a Progressive who has been disagreed with.

Nothing except followers of the so-called prophet Mohammed, that is.

You’ll need to talk to the Mayor of Baltimore about that Linda, she’s just peachy with it.

So she is saying Geller wants hundreds of dead Americans? Seems kind of libelous to me.

Wow, years of macabre killings by Muslims and the newspaper finally gets upset because two radical Muslims were killed trying to murder people at a draw mohammed contest. So, what about the Boko Haram killings and kidnapping of women and raping them? Hmmmmmm....
