LOL! The youtube comments is getting a good freeping!
Hooray! I hope followers of Islam understand that they are being rejected here peacefully FOR NOW. It’s their warning to get out before the symbolic becomes the literal.
The long work hours, the intense heat, the occasional scare, fighting typhoid most of the summer...no problem.
It's not a lack of toughness; it's too little free time and not wanting to waste it with the dregs who have appeared on here of late.
I do not wish discourse with people who can't comprehend a simple sentence and use unprovoked insults to cover for their lack of intelligence.
What the hell am I going to accomplish for the "cause" by putting up with the vermin that has been sliding around here the past week?
Good grief.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!

General Petraeus was not right in saying what he said.
It is certainly true that our freedom puts our troops in harm’s way. But that’s the whole point of having troops.
Government officials shouldn’t be saying things that put our troops at greater risk. But citizens? Citizens have no responsibility to silence themselves to keep our enemies placated.
And it is dead wrong for a General, or for the Commander-In-Chief, to ever suggest that a citizen should self-censor, or take other actions against their own freedom and liberty, simply because their actions upset our enemies.
It’s like having President Roosevelt attacking Americans for saying bad things about Germans during WW2 since it would just make the German people madder at us.
It’s stupid to burn a Koran. Doing so gives Muslims more attention than they deserve. Doing so gives the Koran more value than it should have.
But General Petraeus was WRONG to attack a citizen for exercising their freedom, or to complain that a citizen’s free speech was putting troops in greater danger.
“I’ll defend to the death your right to say it”, has now become, in the Obama administration “I’ll be damned if I’ll lift a finger to defend you”.
I agree wholeheartedly. If this was a man burning a bible, little attention would be paid and the liberal media would be falling over themselves in awe and pontification.
Here's a man with real courage to simply stand up for free speech. In your face Obama.
the Quran advocates the murder of me, my family, and my fellow countrymen, merely because we are judged as “infidels”, any such religion that has such a doctrine as “sharia law” should be banned and its books of teaching burned
You’re a moron.
-I do NOT support or condone appeasement to the Muslims of any sort whatsoever. I cringe at the pictures of them closing intersections on Madison Avenue in NYC on Friday afternoons with their butts in the air and I disdain the cowardly city officials who allow it.

I wonder if Christians wanted to do that every Thursday if they would be allowed? I highly doubt it.
Your answer is too long for a soundbite
Try “I learned all I need to know about Islam on 9/11”
don’t leave, we love you
Well oh my, aren’t you the good, obedient, subservient little infidel.
I know from reading this thread that you are threatening leaving because of the postings of a few morons. That's not tough, it's weak. Grow a spine.
I do not wish discourse with people who can't comprehend a simple sentence and use unprovoked insults to cover for their lack of intelligence.
Then don't respond to them. I ignored the poster who attacked my mother. I never threatened to leave.
You can ignore this or you can respond, either way, I really don't care. But as a casual observer in this thread you appear anything but tough.
Have a nice day.
more ratings, than views.
So what do you mean then with this:
“whole Pastor Jones idea was a stupid publicity stunt and I still maintain that the media hype about the event and the potential event itself had the potential for putting our troops and other Americans in the Middle East in increased danger.”
Seems to state pretty clearly you think we’re supposed to take care not to piss the mooslimes off or they may start to really try to kill us???? Sorry but that doesn’t fly... that’s nothing but a load of lefty-lib bollocks, you may try to act all high and mighty and call those who disagree “keyboard commandoes” or what not... but bottom line remains... for all your claims to the contrary right there you’re spewing lefty crap.
I'm done with all of you for tonight.
I have a life and I need away from this crap.
