So it's okay to kill those who are angry at mocking their prophet, but only if they're Muslim. Right AlbertCat May 2015 #53
I think that part of the outrage is that this particular event seems to have basically been a trap enki23 May 2015 #8
Exactly Novara May 2015 #9

No, you said it. You don't WANT it to be said that way, but that's what you said. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #23
Would you ask Dr. King and John Lewis if provoking a known and expected violent response muriel_volestrangler May 2015 #38
You're just doubling down on the horrible statements, aren't you. Goblinmonger May 2015 #20
So, since the bear analogy flopped... instead... Muslims are.. stupid? Ok. AtheistCrusader May 2015 #22
