What would the liberal media say if the muslims reacted violently to the media’s pro-gay agenda?

I certainly agree that no religion should be above free criticism. But it is ironic that we are having this debate over Islamic issues, when for the past 50 years, there has been a major effort to stifle debate on all other questions of racial, ethnic, class or religious differences.

(Indeed, even while people encourage tasteless attacks on Islamic targets, it has become almost taboo for people who look to the Bible for spiritual truth & inspiration, to even express a Biblically based opinion on the subject of marriage, or the rights of religious Americans to decide not to associate with those who mock their religious beliefs. There are a whole host of organizations that make it a point to stifle free inquiry into problems arising from all sorts of causes, where race, ethnicity, class or religion is involved.)

Personally, I agree with Thomas Jefferson, that all tyranny over the mind of man should be resisted.

that speech that causes the incitement of violence or prejudicial action against protected groups is wrong."

That, in and of itself is the problem.

Government has no authority to discriminate by 'protecting' groups of people.

Funny how this event, however you feel about it was obviously designed to pizz a few types of people off, exercising their First Amendment right to free speech, as billed...

Yet organizers, and security there told the lowly participants that the Second Amendment was not here???

No Bueno...

Winston Churchill said, “Where there is a great deal of free speech there is a certain amount of foolish speech.” People can complain that Geller shouldn’t have done what she did but it is her Constitutional right to do it. And if people complain that it was offensive, well, there is no Constitutional protection against that.

Ayman Mohyeldin of NBC is a jihadist and should be treated as such.
