Could someone ask her if she believes free speech is worth defending?

Apparently not, she says put free speech aside. Anyone willing to put free speech aside is not going to think it is worth defending

She is a reporter. As a former reporter of over a decade I can tell you that only the smallest fraction of them ever read the 1st amendment much less are willing to stand for it.

They are there to make a paycheck and push an agenda. And not in that order.

Remind her of the “provocative” forms of perverted, degenerate art that are funded by tax dollars. If we let terrorists frighten us into silent self-censorship we lose what is left of our intellectual rights without so much as a whimper.

I live 36 minutes from Garland. It gets my attention when various islam muslim terrorists are just that far away.

I didn't know that art thing was going to happen there and wouldn't have known it if it was going to be here. I would have had terrorists in my town. Now, that makes one think - think where the weapons are and where the ammo is and keep them accessible all the time.

Think about it - if you live in a town rather than isolated in the country, there could be an event in your town you wouldn't know was going to happen and then it did, and you could be in a dangerous situation.

Now, in Texas, this time, we killed them in the street before they got inside the building. It is also possible these creepy terrorists could have gotten away and there you are - terrorists loose near you.

Since it happened this near me, (the dead bodies of the terrorists are still in the street), it can happen where you are.

This is Sunday night and I was putting a hem in some pants and not thinking of killing a terrorist should he show up. I stopped long enough to check the latest articles on FR and damn, terrorists are in Garland and I hadn't finished hemming those pants - crap, am I going to have to stop hemming and be on alert for a freaking terrorist messing up my evening?

The above paragraph makes no sense, does it? I am trying to be “normal” and hem pants. Will you be caught that way in the future? Will you be doing “normal” things one day when suddenly “normal” isn't there any more? How fast can you stop doing “normal” and switch into safe guarding your life?

I'm watching Fox News right now showing film of Garland where the bodies are still lying in the street and numerous police vehicles are there. I was a counselor/psychological examiner for Garland Schools for several years a long time ago and owned a house there. It's middle upper class and more upper class dwellings and town and a fine school system. A really nice town.

Are you ready for terrorists suddenly showing up in your town? Do you know where your weapon is?

Why does the NYT print anything negative about conservatives, by the same twist of logic. Yet, they still do.

Haha! Go back to his April 27 comments where he is drooling over his virgins. He’s gotta be one disappointed feller right now.

Bad as I feel, yep. I can dance if they want to dance.

And I don't have much to lose at this point. It would get ugly quickly. ;)

My question to her would be, quite seriously, why do you consider a Muhammad drawing contest provocative?

We must keep praying for this NOT to happen.

They picked on the wrong state this time.

I got an answer for your hemming dilemma - saw it on another thread: It was labeled Texas Tan Line. Shows the outline of a hand gun right above the waist band.

So git your gun and keep it handy, then go back to hemming the pants. (That assumes that you have some sort of security alert for the perimeter). ((Smiles and hugs)).

@rcallimachi “Provocation” happens daily to everyone, yet murder and terrorism is never justified.

@rcallimachi It is provocative that the federal government mails condoms to 10-year olds. Yet those government agents aren’t shot.

@rcallimachi It is provocative that the government allows these murderers to enter the country. Yet nobody is killing them

good question, but I think we would get the usual drivel

I can’t even imagine what has been going on in your mind since you found out about this.

It’s pretty creepy all right. I guess there have been warnings, but this was too close for comfort for anyone in Texas!

THIS was an attack on the US Homeland by ISIS, which has been abetted, aided, and helped by the DO”J” (arming it), the DH”S” (flying them in)

We were warned. The government has been legally importing thousands of Mideasterners/Muslims into our communities for many years now.

Garland PD is old-school Texas. They will turn you into swiss cheese in 2.2 seconds.
