Americans will defend to the death and literally had to Pamela Gellers right to disseminate images of the Prophet Muhammad. The First Amendment applies even to irresponsible provocateurs.
A Geller-organized event in Texas over the weekend included inviting artists to draw images of Muhammad, an act that has provoked deadly attacks by some Islamists.
In explaining her rationale, Geller pointed to an Iranian Holocaust cartoon contest that drew nearly 1,000 entries, saying We need to make a similar show of strength of what is right. Which extended to a drawing of Muhammad anally impaled on a pencil up through his mouth.

Why is everybody attacking Ms. Geller?
She is one of the few pushing back against the Islamic tide.
Leave her alone and start PROFILING...
Here we go again from the same lefties who defended Robert Mapplethorpe and made a big-budget film about their 'hero' Larry Flynt.
How about the provocateurs like the Freedom From Religion Foundation and their paranoid letters to every small town in American with a Christmas tree or a nativity scene?
The media is playing with fire just by the way they report this. By making it sound like they “understand” why the terrorists are attacking such events, they are emboldening them to do more.
More of these cartoon competitions would act as a honey trap and draw out the muzzie crazies for quick extermination.
Geller needs to hire a SWAT team do demonstrate a Constitutional right and she has the problem?
Go Pamela
tale of two cultures...NY and Texas.
One slithers, whines, wrings their hands and cowers in the corner...the other takes a stand..........
True and everyone knows it.
Pamela Geller plays fights fire with fire - a long-proven tactic to quell uncontrolled arson
But Texas is still America...... NYC is no longer
“I bow to no man!” - Riddick
The media doesn't know the truth about islam...and they don't want to know.
Seems like “give me liberty or give me death” was also considered playing with fire... bring it on...
Pam Geller has bells the size of church balls.
But .. the Left sees no problem with placing a Cross into a jar of urine .. and calling it ART.
Don’t expect the Left to change any day soon.
I guess Geller is just another one of those uppity white folks!
They know it but as Gruber said they are stupid.
Even when they know it’s a lie they are too stupid to care so they repeat the lie.
It’s all about getting more power for the left, how many people die in the process is irrelevant.
Do you think leftists would meekly submit and refrain from criticizing the sect, or do you think they'd demand the authorities crack down on the new violent sect and further demand that their right to free speech not be impinged?
Leftists being leftists, they're using this Islam thing to try and suppress the free speech of people they don't like i.e. conservatives.
Amen to that! She should be a National heroine.
Ah yes, the liberal left now out saying that the rape victim was asking for it because she was dressed provocative. ****ing hypocrites all of them.
