When political commentators note that there is no justification for sexual violence, they arent adhering to doctrinal feminism but the tenets of civilized Western thought. No woman, a responsible citizen would say, invites violence merely because their assailant was uncontrollably stimulated by their victims choice of attire. This is such a bedrock principle of human decency that it barely needs to be said. Only the most brutish and crude among us would contend otherwise. Why then does it appear vogue to imply that a terrorist attack on a Texas American Freedom Defense Initiative event organized by the groups president, Pamela Geller, was the inevitable result of provocation on the part of the victims?
Yes, the event that was targeted by Islamist militants in Texas was specifically designed to provoke an inflamed response. The AFDI event promised a $10,000 reward for the attendee who drew the best caricature of the Islamic Prophet Mohammed an offense that inspired the massacre of editors and cartoonists at the satirical French magazine Charlie Hebdo.
Far from being spontaneous, this act of violence was preceded on Twitter by users praising the attackers as mujahideen and approving of their decision to martyr themselves for the cause of radical Islam....

Of course she had it coming. She dared to disagree with the left in a public way.
The Party of Tolerance strikes again.
BTW, any liberal who condemns this attack is a hypocrite.
I would hit Pam and make her a breakfast worthy of Royalty
Maybe the media can't pronounce the word "jihadist."
The talk around the gas pumps here is quite different: I’ve been hearing ‘time to saddle up’ type comments all day, everwhere I’ve gone.
Ms. Geller needs to move to Minnesota, where I can protect her. 24/7.
They’d never report a raped woman had it coming because she got drunk and was dancing provocatively with guys.
Yet here they do. The victkm asked for it.
The freaks on the left have no leg to stand on. There was not one single protestor manning the barricades during the event. So Muslims in general must not have been too offended. The issue should be why were two radicals so upset when Muslims in general were apparently not too upset.
Muslims do do that, Don.
I think they rely on this:

.....and the ‘AP Stylebook’ waaaaay too much.
I haven’t heard such courage come out of anyone else...except maybe on FR.
God Bless Pamela Geller.
Very, very good point.
Except for the mohammedans and the communist.
The more devout they are the more they want to kill you.
Jihadist is just SOOOO passé.
Do all of Islam’s targets of rape, torture, or murder “have it coming”?
All too often, the righteous stay silent.
God bless Pamela Geller.
I thought I heard this same facility recently had an anti islamaphobia group (muslims)rent their place. It did cause some controversy and Geller may have took this into account when selecting this place. BTW, no infidels attacked.
Just like all the women oppressed in the Mid East had it coming... Do liberals really care about abused women?
If Geller and her group had it coming, then why didn’t the Nazis get gunned down marching through Skokie? They didn’t because their opponents respect the rule of law.
