Boca Event Featuring Anti-Muslim Speaker Canceled for Safety Reasons

Not wanting to court danger, the Boca West Country Club has refused to host the Palm Beach Republican Party's "Lobsterfest" dinner that advertised controversial Islamic critic Geert Wilders as the keynote speaker. Geert was part of the Garland, Texas, cartoon contest that invited participants to draw the Prophet Muhammad. Islamic law prohibits any image of the prophet to ward off idol worship.

However, extremists have violently attacked or threatened with death anyone who has published a drawing or depiction of Muhammad over the years. The belief was what prompted extremists to attack the headquarters of French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, where 12 staffers were gunned down.

Last week in Texas, in an attempt to fly directly in the face of that law, organizers put together a $10,000 Muhammad cartoon contest. The contest drew the attention of two gunmen who tried to kill participants with assault rifles. Police were able to thwart the attack and shot and killed the suspects. Not long after, ISIS announced that it was responsible for the attack.

Retracing History!

What if headline would have read”
“Selma March On March 25, 1965, Cancelled for Safety Reasons”.
“Controversial activist, Martin Luther King, was to lead the march for freedom”

The old days when people had CAJONES!

“Faaag: takes one to know one.”

So in order to know a police man, I need to be a police man? May be you need to go full on prayer mode and pray for more brain cells LOL

You are irrational. You act outrageous then act all offended when called on the outrageousness.

I see no suggestion of help. That makes you a coward QED.

Political correctness had destroyed the character of the American people. I really feel like it’s game over at this point. Who would have thought, shortly after the 9/11 attacks, that we would so soon be such cowards in the face of Islamic threats?

How about YOU go to prayer mode. That is the problem with humanity. It has forgotten God and become proud in its own arrogance.

As all S. Florida conservatives know Boca and Broward county have more sleazy hand wringing lib cowards than the whole world combined!
A Hamas spokesman said at a rally in Miami “we will conquer American Jews” and immediately pro Israel bumper stickers disappeared! Disgusting!

Let it be known that WHO will be there?

Local CCW holders who are known to the Palm Beach GOP. You actually wouldn't need many. Beyond that, I'm a bit confused by your post. I suppose I have inadvertently stepped into the middle of some sort of Freeper spat.

If that's so, I will retreat to a neutral corner.

If you had bothered to look, you would have seen I admonished others who took such an evil attitude too.

You are simply volunteering to be among the worst.

As to your insinuations about me, they simply show how evil you are.

And here’s your build-up line: go kneel before God and repent. Then you will be blessed by God. Otherwise your life is full of house-of-cards vanity.

Humility comes in touch with God’s authority from which I then admonish you.

However the scripture warns me not to cast pearls before swine. You could go to God and repent but you refuse. Therefore you maintain your swine position. This warning to you is being more helpful than you ever were.

That was fun LOL Now be a good boy and quit. It’s disrespectful to hijack this thread for our personal stuff, don;t you agree? I can start another thread under personals if you want ;P

In some ways this cowardly response may be a good thing. Cowardly actions encourage aggression. This will just enbolden those who wish to do evil. At some point they will go too far and hell will be unleashed.
I live in the deep South. With in five miles of my house there are more arms, ammo and good old boys(and girls) than you can imagine. I don’t fear evil. It will be taken care of.
