Though a member of FR for years now I Haven’t written a vanity in a long time, but because of the events of the last few days re-- the quran burning controversy, I am going to break that trend and humbly ask that my fellow freepers read this.
When crosses were put in urine, when flags are burned, when the virgin mary was depicted with feces, what was our response? Yes it stung, yes it made many of us angry, but our response was we denounced these actions with words. There was no violence, nor threat of violence.
Contrast that to the response of muslims to burning the Koran. We are told in no uncertain terms that if Korans are burned there will be violence.
The answer in this situation should have been obvious--however angry the burning of a Koran may make you, you cannot make threats to silence people, that is completely unacceptable.
Somehow though, over the last few days, the left ,the conservative punditry and sadly even some here on the right, have, instead opted to confer exalted status on Islam. Giving Muslims the right not to be offended, and if offended, the right to threaten violence. This is a status no other religion in the world enjoys, NOR EVER SHOULD.
And that is why muhammed must be depicted, and that is why Korans need to be burned, to show muslims they cannot dictate to us what we can and can’t do with threats of violence.
That is what should have happened, instead sadly, the opposite, the ultimate appeasement occurred.
This was a pivotal moment in our history and we blew it big time.
All I can say is that if we continue down this road of surrendering constitutional rights so that muslims won’t be offended and won’t hurt us for it, then we may as well pack up our soldiers and bring them home, because we’ll have lost the war on terror, in our own backyard.
We need to export the Christian worldview. But instead, we forbid our soldiers to speak of God and we burn Bibles.
Even on Free Republic there seems massive consternation among the regulars.
Maybe in the next day or so clear heads will predominate.
Count me in
Imo, others will be discouraged from confronting Islam in the future.
So no, I got the point completely.
(tho, I'm still not sure what you meant)
i promise that i am going to print at least a few pages tomorrow and piss on it or better yet clean up dog poop with it. thanks

Absolutely, if they’re itching for a fight - Real American’s will bring it to them!
Oh my! And he ran for president as a populist. This issue is bringing out the true colors of lots of people. I understand Bill O’Reilly said something similar. Another phony who postures that he is looking out for the little guy.
nothing else fits.
It ain't over yet, champ.
Remember those brave people who worked to get as many out of the buildings as they could and all the innocents who lost their lives because some insane frickin' phony religion deemed that they should.
Oops KP> should have been a paragraph and sex pack should equal six pack! Sorry.
believe me I do not say this lightly. We lost.
I wish I could believe like Geert Wilders that we will never give up.... but we lost.
If you search on YouTube today using keywords like Quran, Koran, barbecue, BBQ, you’ll see examples of videos with pork and Korans on the barbie ... and more ...
The left has riped us apart to the point even Capitalism is evil which should be the strongest of all the ideologies. But Islam is now stronger.
We are so screwed.
Now people line up like sheep to chant 'we want change.' King Zero says, "All the people are saying 'They want change.' Give them all a pocket full of worthless coins. Tell Helicopter Ben to print $ Trillions of Dollars of worthless currency."
I think you are %100 on the mark pops.
Friggin cave men don’t belong in the modern world.
Low on the evolution scale for sure.
Can ANYONE now have ANY doubt that Obama is a Muslim and a Muslim supporter? He certainly does not have MY best interest in mind ,THAT IS A GIVEN !
BINGO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
