And this has what to do with Muslim terrorism?
What IS your point?
What exactly does dredging up and posting in a wall of text with every instance of domestic terrorism in the U.S. since the 1970s have to do
with Muslim terrorists butchering journalists in France for a cartoon today?
Why would you do that?
Get out of your cubicle and go to the break room and nuke yourself a Hotpocket.

the noob was attempting to say whack job christians are more evil than whack job muslims, but failed really badly at it.

As an American I find it interesting how other cultures, who don't have a First Amendment, view free speech. I certainly think a newspaper should have the legal right to publish cartoons that mock religious iconography, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea. Unfortunately it is abundantly clear that there are at least some practitioners of Islam who will not hesitate to resort to violence to avenge any perceived slight of their faith and its prophet. To me it's obviously foolish to gratuitously poke a sleeping bear with a broomstick, which is what this newspaper has a track record of doing. Here, it led to the deaths of 12 people.

None of that means that the victims deserved this - they absolutely did not, and this was an indefensible and cowardly act of terrorism. The bad guys are the terrorists, not the employees of the newspaper. Their deaths just seem pointless and unnecessary to me.

The gun is a tool you fool. The gun didnt walk by itself and kill people. The religous person holding it did.

I think you are a little confused on who the tool is. The religion didn't walk in and kill anyone either you dolt.

It directly refutes the person quoted about killing/violence who aren't Muslims but fundie Christians. Again, religion didn't kill people today, killers hiding behind and using it as an excuse did. Try and keep up aptly named bigot. :rolleyes:

No YOU said that. That's called a straw man. I said no such thing. They are the FUCKING SAME. ANYONE who kills in the name of religion is a whack job. But not every person who belongs to that religion is, unless of course they are Muslim (see how easy straw men can be built).

Says yet another circle jerking bigot. Very impressed by your well thought out rebuttal. :rolleyes:

Really, I'm a bigot? Please, quote something I said along those lines.

Of course you can't. You're just another brainless moron who throws around the "bigot" label because that's the sum total of your argumentative skills.

You are just another brainless moron who calls people dumb. Still waiting for you to refute the post I quoted that you shit and ran on. Yeah, that was great argumentative skills you displayed there. Amazing how you can't see how full of shit you are.

Hey, there were two cops there. I assume they were armed. What happened? Also remember, having a gun in your house will protect you if the US military decides to take over.

Two cops died. I know there is a video showing one wounded and a killer walking by and executing him.

I don't need to mince words with a mental midget such as yourself. Someone throwing out the word "bigot" in every post isn't worthy of anything but ridicule -- which is exactly what you deserve and got.

No their BS interpretation of it tells them it's justified. Somehow 1.6 billion others say it's not ok to kill.

Doesnt matter if its BS. It is still their belief they were justified and carried it out as such. Funny thing about religion how it can be so easily interpreted how you want it to be. Maybe they are right and the other 1.6 billion are wrong? Who knows...maybe if they learned to write plainly and clearly back then we wouldnt have this issue today.

That's what I thought. Great debating skills displayed in your OP to me. Typical hypocrite. The post you quoted was just a quote from someone else regarding a bunch of incidences that refuted Christian fundie violence is just as bad . Again, you can't see how full of shit you are. 20K+ posts doesn't give you a free pass. But it certainly makes you a grandiose asshole.

Best to walk...I don't think he's actually capable of rational discussion....so much hatred in his posts.
