Why is this not being protested about in America?
Why would anyone in the US protest what goes on in another country? As soon as you walk across the US border, your rights as an American citizen are gone and only exist if the country you are in chooses to give them to you.
If you don't like how they treat Christians in certain countries, don't ever go there.
Other than that, there isn't much we should do. It isn't our right to demand that other nations change any more than it's their right to demand that we change.
I think you may be confusing supporting’freedom of speech and expression’ with supporting him.
Yes you are over thinking it...
They are burning Korans to illustrate that muslims will go ape shit over it...
And they will...as sure as the sun will rise tommorrow..
Cause and effect....
That’s a good point, Crim. I TOTALLY agree that ‘moderate’ Muslims should speak out without fear. I’m just questioning the timing and their support of the Westboro Baptist Church.....who I’ve always suspected as a left-wing troll group......to make Christianity look bad.
I'm not the Admin Moderator, but...um...I think it belongs in the trash bin.
That is probably true, the simplest explanation is usually correct.. However, do note the link, they are fans of Fred Phelps and his Westboro loons... that makes me wonder what side they may be playing in this.
“This officially ends all debate about Terry Jones.”
Thankfully...it is not up to you...
How’d I know a pro-muzzie Obamabot like you would post this?
Just a lucky guess.
Here’s a tip: Stock up on your Depends now so when Obama sends his DOJ thugs to shut down free speech and freedom of religion, you won’t wet yourself with glee.
The best solution is to simply ignore them and not feed their need of attention.
Yes, ignoring has worked so well through the years /heavy sarcasm. The great thing about America is that we can disagree and you are exercising that right and that's wonderful. But ignoring is not the answer. The "live and let live" philosophy sounds wonderful but is one of the reasons we are headed for the cliff.
“I guess, “proper perspective” means support for and celebration of book-burning. Nice. Very nice.”
It’s called “freedom of expression”....it’s an American thing....you may want to look it up...
Ah but it is. Don't try it. I am also a Lord of the Sith.
Yeah...like we have been attacked for anything other than being infidals since well before 1993....
Well lady...unless you are willing to convert to Islam....you can expect to be attacked by muslims...
It’s really that simple...
What this church does...or does not do....wont change that fact...
Sounds to me like you are ready to submit to Islam and it’s demands...out of craven fear...
A sith Lord would be burning korans and bibles in the same fire...then blaming it on the Jedi...
Kinda like a democrat....with goofy makeup...
Have you actually taken the time to go to the source? The reasons are posted on his site. He actually makes some very valid points that most here usually agree with regarding the evil nature of islam.
I was really against the burning until I read what Bare Naked Islam posted this morning. Their “holy” book says that it’s okay to sodomize infants just don’t penetrate them. Now why in heck are we bending over backwards to keep from offending them? Islam is a blight on humanity.
We moved it from Chat to Breaking News. Hope you don’t mind. :)
Umm I don’t know what you are talking about but I think you must be responding to someone else.
You obviuosly are not a Christian. I am.
He and Fred Phelps are very offensive.
And the fact that I oppose the God Hates Fags preacher does not mean I support the gay agenda.
Same with this guy.
This preacher is a f-ing idiot and so is anyone who supports him. Bring on the flames.
Good point! I guess the debate is NOT over after all.
