Historically.. it has been those good upstanding white christians who have banned, burned and gone ape shit over that book and others.
Yes and they were assholes, but that's legal to do in this country and certainly no one rioted and killed over it. Furthermore if anyone did riot and kill over it, you wouldn't defend them
I don't like it when someone burns a flag, but I don't have the right to cut their head off over it. Nor should I.
I would say that yes our fundies have the legal right... but in THEIR sandbox....
THEIR fundies its also a religious duty and a legal right to do exactly as they are doing.

QuoteQuoteIf an Islamic Mullah claims that everyone who reads "A Catcher in the Rye" is an Infidel and he will kill American troops if it isn't burned, should we ban that book and is it the fault of all the readers if he follows through with his threat?
If an American "Leader" claims that there will be a mushroom cloud if you don't invade a country. Should we blame him or the CIA when he invades and kills thousands based on "false information"?
The American leader along with most members of both parties in the Senate and House who were saying hte same things before Bush was even a canidate?
That false info?

Exactly. There is a big difference between US and THEM.

During the run-up to the war in Iraq the executive branch was doing a lot of arm-twisting and selective information sharing. That information formed the basis for much of Congress going along with the decision to go to war.
You could make a case for Congress being too easy to lead by the executive branch, but I seem to recall quite a bit of traitor-calling of members of congress who disagreed with the decision to go to war.
And the information was cherry-picked. It was packaged to make a case, rather than to provide information for people to make a decision. There's a HUGE difference.
Kind of like the difference between honest science and proving things.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

Certain factions of Islam has vowed to kill Americans. Throwing fuel on a fire has never helped to put out the flame.
It is quite simple, he knew that his action would cause a rippling effect across certain areas in the world, and he did it with no concern for the safety of others.

Again, you're defending the message "Give up your freedom or we will kill you." What's next, "Force your women to wear Burqua's or we will kill you?" "Stone your daughters if they sleep with a man or we will kill you?"
Sorry, how about fuck you Omar, we'll do what we want and if you harm one American for it we'll incinerate you.
That's got a much better ring to it.
