Mila: 'No regrets' for French teen targeted for criticising Islam
BBC ^ | February 4 2020 | BBC

A teenager has sparked a national debate about blasphemy in France after an Instagram post calling Islam a "religion of hate".

Mila, 16, posted her comments online after receiving homophobic abuse from a Muslim commenter.

She received death threats and has not attended school since.

But Mila has refused to back down, saying in her first television interview that she "wanted to blaspheme".

...At least there are still some GLBTQ folks (in this case lesbian), who have no illusions about just what Islam thinks about them, despite what the pearl-clutchers amongst the 'woke' crowd might think. Not sure if I'm down with her blanket statement that she 'hates ALL religion', but she has every right to say it. But of course, as can be predicted, only Islam is above and beyond criticism or questioning these days...

I don’t know how a gay person could vote for dems, who coddle muslims...who want gays dead.

If it was worth it (it’s not) Trump could make a good case why LGBTQ should support him.

If some Islamist terrorist harms her, the leftists will all eagerly praise the act.

Anyone can prove Islam is a religion of hate by just calling it that. When you criticize any other religion, you don’t get death threats and actual assassination attempts.

Its Koran-a-virus. It effects over a billion people. It effects the brain and destroys all logical cognitive processes. Causes extreme rage and violence. The only solution is absolute quarantine.

“She has a right to say it” and that is what is under attack by Islamists everywhere they’ve relocated to. Many countries have “hate speech” laws that are being used to suppress any criticism of Islam. It used to be that you could say anything in our country up to and including something that proved yourself to be an ass but now the “hate speech” crowd has made big inroads into free speech. The result has been to drive hate and racism underground instead of being overtly obvious to all for public condemnation.

Oh that’s easy. Because gays are hedging that importing a modest amount of Muslims will eventually modernize the vast majority of them. This will create a small, yet significant voting bloc that pits them against the traditional Christian majority who typically vote conservative. So far they have been correct. In return for that loyal voting bloc, Leftists will have to deal with the occasional, unenlightened outbursts of moral conservatism until that golden day when all of us (Muslim and Christian alike) embrace the beauty of homosexual love.

It’s kind of fun watching the two most intolerant groups on the planet (Muslims and sexual deviants) calling each other hateful.

Is there still such a thing?

Gays who vote Democrat aren't thinking about Muslims, who are still only 1% of the population at all.

We do have a home grown religion like that, let’s just call it “Fictionology” to be nonjudgmental and discrete.

They’re a little more secretive about their fatwas, though.

Of course, but the reasons they should support him have nothing to do with their "alphabet" status.

It’s not a blasphemy if it’s not your religion.

“It’s not a blasphemy if it’s not your religion.”

Tell that to the folks at Charlie Hebdo...

Yet both movements are what they charge others as being.
