It's journalism. They post stories that will rouse emotion so people will keep reading their newspaper or watch their TV show. It obviously has worked, haha.

But just have a counter protest like the many against the Phelps family. Just burn something completely ridiculous next door and no one will cover the Quran book burning.

You made that connection, not I.

And by promoting that ignorance and blaming the religion, you becomes part of the problem and not the solution.

You are the problem when you twist what others say, misconstrue their meaning and create tangents that didn't exist.

Repeat...when I promote ignorance (Islam is a terrorist religion), I am the problem, not part of the solution.

I did not, nor do I blame Islam, just the extremists. Whatever their race, religion or ideology does not matter. It is you who continue to create this false argument that others are blaming islam, not I.
You are so extreme in YOUR views that you continue to perpetuate this completely incorrect argument.

Same old bullshit from you too, dude.

The issue for me is bigger than some bigoted minister. It is the growing backlash against Muslims in America....from this preacher, from Beck and Limbaugh, from Chirstohpher Hitchins and from innuendos like yours.

And that backlash is fueled by ignorant associations of the actions of few with an entire religion.

Thats my opinion an d i dont give a fuck if you like it not.
