... all this Koran burning/not burning has not been a ‘teachable moment” about Islam ...

Of course it isn't. It's a teachable moment about these United States of America, and our First Amendment rights.

I've had it up to here (Fingers above eyebrows) with "teachable moments" about Islam. I even hate the phrase, "teachable moments."

I put “teachable moment” in quotes because the Libs use the phrase to push their agenda...However, now, in this case it becomes ironic.

We already KNOW about our First amendment Rights...this is a “teachable moment” about Islams’s reaction to that here and overseas. It is also a “teachable moment” ( again ironic) about the rage of Islamofascists about THEIR religion being put down, but no other religion is protected in Islamic countries.

I'm not retracting anything or backing down.

I call 'em as I see 'em.

If some idiot n00B is going to accuse me of saying 9/11 was our fault as well as other garbage accusations when I never said any such thing, I'm going to go after her on that slanderous crap.

If you want to speak for what the Mods think, have at it. Not being one myself, I can't and won't.

I didn't threaten anyone's posting privileges; I said I'd campaign to have her sorry butt kicked off of here. That means if the moron accuses me of leftist, anti-American statements which I have never even coming close to expressing, I'll bring it to the Mods' attention. I have no sway over what they'd do and have never claimed such.

You'll be happy to know that after this week of running into so many nasty people, I am seriously considering leaving FR anyway.

Enough is enough.
