Killian pointed to a recent controversy where a local Tennessee politician posted a photo of a man aiming a shotgun at the camera with the caption "How to wink at a Muslim."

According to the above link, he has a D after his name. Go figure. Well, Truman did, too. But that was a long time ago.

Guess I’ll start a Facebook account just to jerk em around.

I hope my cat doesn't start posting anti Muslim comments now just to make a point. He seems to get into so much trouble on facebook I had to defriend him.

“Hate Crime” mentality being carried to the next logical step (just as planned). Because of what you say, they can decide to punish you more severely than what the crime they get you for would normally carry. Now they are ready to criminalize the words so a real crime isn’t necessary.

so every time a social media poster calls for death or attacks on infidels, we can press civil right charges?

Yippee!

“US attorneys are appointed.....another grand gift from the anti Romney crowd.”

That's what we get thanks to the 3 million so called Conservatives who wouldn't vote for Romney. And they take to the streets to protest because they were denied or delayed getting tax exempt status?

Why aren't they joining the rest of us in protesting about these facts!

Obama lied and Americans died!
