So you don't see intimidating religious groups is also bullying?Yes, they can do as they please and if they feel intimidated that is on them.Excuse me? How does that mean it is okay to kill? That someone is provoked simply means they were provoked. It's like teasing a rattlesnake, someone's ass is going to get bit.Who said it was okay to kill?
Anyone who says they were provoked by the exercise of free speech in America.
But we're not talking about rattlesnakes, we're talking about people.
So I'll ask you a simple question. Should a person be able to draw a picture of Mohammed, burn a flag, satirize the Bible, protest with "God Hates Fags" signs, or exercise their first amendment rights in any way without fear of death, or be intimidated into abandoning those rights because someone or a group of people are so dangerous that they would attempt to kill the protestors?
Realistically, some people kill over cartoons. And that is why this is like poking a rattlesnake.
I also don't see any other point to the contest aside inflaming some nutters so it looks like Geller got her wish.
I see that as setting a dangerous precedent, backing down from a bully will simply embolden other bullies, IMO.
Best to stand up to the first bully that threats Americans freedoms, the same way the abortionist stood up to the radicals that blew up abortion clinics.
