I love how this applies to terrorist breeding, fundamentalist assholes, but not to the US. So they have hundreds to thousands of groups and organizations killing each other and attacking the west in the name of God, but just shrug it off, dont let that speak for them. /sarcasm. The US has one person and a staff of cronies inflaming the world opinion of us, but no one ever says "dont let the actions of few affect your opinions of the majority" regarding us.

I firmly believe that there are many many good muslim people out there. But only because they are bad muslims. the ones that choose to follow the bits of the quuran that apply to peace and love and leave out the vast amount of intolerance. Read the surahs regarding how to treat the "children of the pigs" (christian/jews) if you dont know what I am talking about.

and to cut you off early, of course everyone is very well aware of the dark times in christian history, that does not validate anything that islamic fundamentalists are doing. i would argue the majority of the dark things in christian history were not about religion at all but about political power.

these terrorist groups are now synonymous with being islamic fundamentalists. they follow the "basic ideas or principles" of the islamic faith zealously. is this not evidence enough how violent these fundamentals are?

Well, yes, but that doesn't mean they represent the majority of Muslims. In addition, their true, hidden agendas most likely have nothing to do with Islam at all. I would also argue that the majority of the dark things in Islamic history were not about religion but about political power.

Those signs look suspicious. Why is it that four signs, presumably from different places, all have the same kind of handwriting, the same kind of ink and the same kind of paper?

There's also the fact no one actually seems to be holding the signs.
No offense, but you've never participated in a protest have you?
I haven't, please explain. Is there usually one Official Protest Poster Salesman, who has a monopoly on the manufacture of posters, and does he provide sky hooks to hold them up with?

Some 20 million dollars in, lol, tax payer money went to fund this and a few other films, which may now be scrapped because of predictable Muslim outrage.


My question for these specific offended groups;

Hey Assholes, ever hear of free speech?

So to be fair, you must forgive all the sins of America because they are for the same reasons.

I never said to forgive them. What I meant was Islam in general cannot be held totally (TOTALLY!) responsible for terrorism in its 'name'.

If it's not religion, it's skin colour or political affiliation or football team or sexual preference blah blah blah

Never need much of a reason to kill one another.
