Breitbart: “$10,000 Muhammad Art and Cartoon Contest to be Held at ...in Texas”
Atlas Shruggs ^ | 02/12/2015 | Pamela Geller

Posted on 02/12/2015 12:37:35 PM PST by Rusty0604

Pamela Geller is planning a “Draw the Prophet” event in Garland, Texas in the same location as Muslim group held a “Stand with the Prophet” conference in January. The First Annual Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest will be hosted by the Curtis Caldwell Center, which is owned and operated by the Garland Independent School District.

During the Free Speech Rally in Garland, Geller spoke with Breitbart Texas about her reaction to the large and loud crowd of protesters. She said that Muslims are trying to impose restrictions on free speech like they are doing in Paris. “Thousands of Americans said ‘no way!’”

“The media can smear us and the President can stand with them,” Geller said. “We the people are not having it. If there is any proof of that, it’s today. We dwarfed them.”

“If the Western media ran the Danish cartoons back when this Islamic supremacist movement first started gaining steam, the editorial staff of Charlie Hebdo would be alive today,” Geller stated in response to an inquiry from Breitbart Texas. “That said, the European press ran the Hebdo cartoons in the wake of that jihad slaughter. But the American press would not. The beacon of freedom, the shining light on a hill, is running scared. Well, that’s not who we are. The elites do not represent the people.”

“Enough is enough,” she explained. “They’re just cartoons. We’re holding this exhibit and cartoon contest to show how insane the world has become — with people in the free world tiptoeing in terror around supremacist thugs who actually commit murder over cartoons. If we can’t stand up for the freedom of speech, we will lose it — and ... free society.”

The art exhibit and contest will be held at the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland on May 3rd.

Better hold it at a gun rally!

The only place of Government that is restricted gun control areas are in actual
buildings where Courts are held. This place is open for all CHL holders.
Should be plenty of Rifles there too.

That's Willie “Popeye” Ingram. My father knew him and when I was a kid used to
talk to him all the time. I thought he was the coolest man on the planet!

Might I suggest:

The Rape of Aisha — horrified girl cowering back in her tent as Mohammed approaches. Capture the horror.

A scene done of Mohammed choping off the 1,000 heads of captured Jews in Mecca or wherever he did that.

May I suggest a sidekick, “Kablooey?”

LOL! I envision something like Wile E. Coyote (just after encountering an Acme pyrotechnic product). With perhaps a dab of the controversial "Black Pete" added, for good measure (and added insult).

Beautiful, but horrifying.

Are sculptures accepted? I’m thinking “Bacon Mohammed” for my entry.

Yep, we had the big Islamopalooza a couple of weeks ago. I guess there were a few protesters from what I heard, but the show was in part run by some “unindicted co-conspirator” to the ‘93 WTC bombing, if I recall correctly.

I live a few miles from Ground Zero.

Many people have told me my dog's droppings look like The "Profit".
I tell them, "That's not being nice and it would offend the delicate sensitivities of the warm & cuddly muzzies who harm no one."

Damn. I can’t go to Texas.

I'm ten minutes down the road from the place. I'll go in your stead.

DJ in Dallas "Ben Ferguson" 840am was rambling on about how we're so much better than this

That guy is a loud mouth RINO of the first order. Oh, and did I tell you that he's loud? Loudest mouth on the radio, bar none.

He does a horrible job of trying to stay on the middle ground and not offend anybody.
I've listened to him before and he should stop trying to be a smartest person in the room.
He has no moral integrity. I guess the lefties here like that.

No way the owner of a building is going to accept that kind of liability. The PC police, even in Texas, will not allow this to happen. CAIR, most lawyers, Obama, Holder, etc...all getting a memo within a couple days.

I think Geller is hoping they will try to stop it. After the precedent of the "Stand with the Prophet" rally, it would make them ripe targets for a civil rights lawsuit.

I think that management at WBAP is to blame for the bland local talk show hosts we're subjected to. They've got a lot more in common with the GOP-e than their listeners do, so they hew to the middle, and insist that their talk show talent does, as well.

Very few (if any) of the local talkers are unreservedly conservative, or stridently outspoken. John David Wells of KSKY is one of the few who fits that description, though he's careful not to gore too many sacred oxen, either.

On the other hand, talker Ed Wallace, professed "former brain dead conservative" of KLIF, is overtly liberal. Sigh....

Wanna bet on whether or not this happens?
