i'm pretty sure we'd still find other reasons to kill each other without the invisible giant in the sky myth. i think we're hard wired for killing.

but hopefully it would be for a better fairy tale. story telling matters. and this one is just ridiculous on all sides.

huh, are you equating burning a book with killing a dozen people?

They are going to defeat us because we're back to being the politically correct sissies we were before 9/11. It's over.

The Tea Party isn't going to change things. Nothing will. We're Rome. They win.

In the 60's, Bob Dylan wrote a song titled, "With God on Our Side"...I think here he is referring to the carnage throughout history in the name of religion, not this specific event.

The people of Afghanistan go with us or the Taliban, depending upon who the highest bidder is. It's that simple. We made great strides in the past couple of years by simply paying more for them to fight on our side. The Taliban, in concert with the local religious leaders, is clearly involved in the latest violence. It's all about whipping up the anti-American froth. It's just an excuse.

As for the jackass in Florida, he's risking American lives with his quest for another 15 minutes of national fame.

Yea blame him!

Face it the only thing these less than human animals (not all muslims just the millions and millions of bad ones) understand is violence. So if we want to interact with them the only way is by killing them or being killed by them.

That's pretty comical. American's aren't in danger because of this clown. They are in danger because they are Americans and many of bad guys are just blood thirsty radical animals that put no value on life.

Quiet represents the majority of Americans. That's what they believe. We, as Americans, love giving up our freedom of speech and various other rights.

If you want to burn books, go for it. If you want to kill people who had nothing to do with it...well it's ok because some white man, the devil, burned a book on the other side of the globe.

I really don't like political things, but this really isn't political---or maybe it is.



Money is not the root of all evil, but hate is.

Hate is more responsible for deaths than anything.

Hate of a person,hate of a benign act,hate of a country,race,religion or creed.....and even hate of an obnoxious yet innocuous sports fan.



And it makes it all the more remarkable what that guy,be he the son of God or a man,said.....''Love thy enemy."



Boy, did he know what he was talking about.

Sad to say,I have hated.

But I'm not anymore....gosh I hope not.



I renounce my hatred of the FOF and DUMB CORPS and forgive them .I will also stop calling them names.This isn't going to be easy,but I will.

Lets take this place over, Kareem.

What I said, was:

Yes, I agree the Taliban is just blood thirsty radical animals with no value on life.

But yeah - when the Taliban uses the clown in Florida to incite violence against our troops in Afghanistan, yeah - that puts Americans in danger.

[GenuineRisk]

Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs sums it up well:

"The rioters who murdered UN workers and ran amok today in Kandahar are responsible for their actions. But Terry Jones, who was warned repeatedly by top US officials that violence would be the result, is also responsible for his actions. Jones is a pathetic coward who put the lives of others on the line in order to make a statement of pure bigotry. And more than a dozen are now dead because of it.

In this country, Jones has the constitutional right to burn any book he feels like burning. Should he be punished for this? Not legally, no. But this disgusting, deliberately provocative act does not deserve anyone’s support, and Jones is no hero for free speech. He’s a twisted, amoral man hiding behind religion — just like the Afghan imams who incited these crowds to violence."

The point I'm trying to make is that even if the pastor was out of the equation, the troops or anyone that is American for that matter would be in danger anyway. They don't need any reasons to kill Americans.

By you bringing up the pastor is almost like some sort of justifucation for them going around killing people.

Absolutely not...there is no justification for murder. But this guy was warned in the past that his burning the book could excite folks and make a dangerous situation that much more so. Remember, this bloodthirsty mob of animals didn't kill Americans but UN workers mainly from Africa. In the past 24 hours, riots have spread across the country with the predictable flag burning and hate America crowd using his actions as an excuse. I agree that it's tempting to say, "F them" let them go back to Taliban rule but the problem is that we've lost many American lives there and need a government free of the Taliban (and with them the terrorists plotting to attack us), so we need to have support of the people...and this crackpot's hateful act just set that back quite a bit.

Only if you completely ignore what I said about it. Which was the opposite.

By completely ignoring the entire paragraph previous, about the Taliban, where I said who was at fault and dismissed the jackass in Florida as just an excuse.

Let's post like you: FU. You're the Squeeky Fromme of internet board idiots.
