Armed Bikers Plan to Draw Cartoons of Mohammed Outside a Mosque in Arizona
Foreign Policy ^ | 5/28/15 | David Francis

An armed biker gang. Cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed. A mosque in Arizona. What could possibly go wrong?

We’ll find out Friday, when two organizers — Jon Ritzheimer and Flash Nelson — host what’s being billed as a peaceful demonstration outside the Islamic Community Center in Phoenix. It’s the former site of worship for Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi, who were killed after opening fire outside a May 3 contest featuring cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed in suburban Dallas. Simpson had no direct link to the Islamic State but was sympathetic to its cause. Many Muslims consider depictions of Mohammed blasphemous.

Just like the cartoon contest outside Dallas, this event, scheduled for 6:15 p.m. Friday, appears to welcome controversy. In a Facebook invite, the planners urge attendees to take full advantage of their Second Amendment right to carry weapons. So far, 163 people have RSVP’d.

Here’s the Facebook post in full, verbatim:

How insensitive! Imagine expressing your opinion freely at the expense of someone’s religious values. Only the left can do that against christians.

“Oh, we had to shoot and bust this biker gang so that nothing would happen to the poor jihadist....”

I'm sure a couple of our resident government agents will be along shortly to condemn this.

No, a motorcycle club, but outlaw bikers are criminal gangs.

The sarcasm sailed joyously right over your head, I assume.

Then let me preface it.

“To the world/the ignorant/the terrified and the MSM, 3 or more of us is a “gang”.

Savvy?

I understood you but don’t think that it is true, people don’t mind people who ride motorcycles, but they do get uneasy around biker gangs with rockers.

I’m sure the powers that be will try to change that, soon.

As an example, a Rolling Thunder article that was posted Sunday evening was full of comments such as “OMG Are they a gang?” “Do they let gangs ride with them?”, etc etc.

In just that short time, a long-standing veteran’s ride was infected by the All Bikers Are Outlaws meme.
