jclalor 12 #26 September 18, 2010 Quote***QuoteFirst of all, I am totally on Molly Norris' side. TOTALLY. The danger she is in is real, just like Theo van Gogh, who was murdered in The Netherlands. It pisses me off to have to say that she needs to change her name and hide in her own country. In OUR country. But she does... BUT I am not going to go on the warpath with all AMERICAN Muslims over this, because I know they're not all behind this. Not anymore than all Baptists are behind bombing Planned Parenthood Clinics, or sniping at doctors through their kitchen windows in the dead of night, or walking up to doctors and shooting them in the middle of Sunday morning services. All of which have happened in America in the last ten years. While I have been guilty of some really hateful anti-Muslim statements in the last few years, I have also privately thought that the murder of doctors should be responded to with the killing of preachers in the pulpit on Sunday mornings. Or that the assholes who picket Planned Parenthood should be whipped across their faces with coat hangers. But this kind of hatred is just the root of the problem and I renounce it. Even if other people can't. Even if they want to continue the cycle, I won't. We have ways to protect Molly Norris. We have ways to prosecute terrorists. Timothy McVeigh, the white American veteran terrorist who blew up the Federal office buildings in OK City is DEAD. He had a FAIR trial, with a GOOD lawyer, was found guilty, and got the needle for it. Went to his death without a final statement, probably for the better - he didn't have a good word to say, so FUCK him. Our system DOES work. We don't need to persecute our fellow AMERICANS who choose to follow a different religion. If they break the law, we're more than capable of getting them for that. Very well said.

This is the kind of intolerance that is creating a huge backlash against the Muslim religion. We should show respect for these easily-offended muslims, because if we don't, well, they'll kill us. And anyone who doesn't give in to their death threats and do as they say, well, you're just a racist hater. So there! LOL, I would simply say to those who get all up in arms screaming death to america, "grow the fuck up!" Fucking assfucks... Well, thats that then.

Let me break it down to you the same way I break it down to my kids. 1. Always give someone the benefit of the doubt. Give a helping hand when ever you can. 2. If some one just doesn't like you, leave him be. No need to go looking for trouble. 3. If someone is trying to bully you, you have to stand up to him. You can't go through life being afraid.
