I'm not talking about the people and the race thing has already been addressed, how many times do I have to say it. Islam and Muslims are not the same.

Maajid is bang on.

Also to that question you posted that Frownland just responded to, yes my response would be the same, if Christians do this I will mock them as well, I was Christened, my dad is a practising Christian and I went to Church every Sunday from the age of about 6 to 11. I've no problem mocking Christianity.
You seem to have misinterpreted that. I asked not would you mock them but would you blame them for killing the muslims? You're answering a question I didn't ask. Anyway I guess it's not that important. You have your view and won't change so before we get into any sort of argument or say something we'll regret I'm just exiting this now.

It's just funny when people mock Islam you get the bleeding heart liberals being crybabies. Not having it. It's an ideology that deserves to be mocked.
Like I say, who are you to say that? They probably think the same about us, who worship some guy who died on a cross and only follow his teachings when it suits us. If any religion deserves to be mocked it's Christianity.

honestly you guys saying the magazine should have known better are essentially saying what i said in so many words. they should've known better than to insult islam without expecting violence. it's pure insanity to me that you guys are willing to accept this level of discourse. honestly you should be deported to iraq for wanting to appease these bearded thugs.
Yeah, that's kind of you really. Don't change I guess.

It was not a joke, it was an incredelous response to your claim that they "fought back the only way they knew how"

2. You accuse me of placing words in your mouth, when all I did was analyze analogies that you yourself used earlier on.
You're choosing to see my view as something entirely different to what it is. That's what I'm saying. I'm just offering my attempt to balance out all this freedom forever/hero worship crap that's going on.

3. You're right, there is enough trouble in the world. Which is why we shouldn't just sit back while murderers make it worse.
And we do that by insulting their religion and inviting more of the same?

Okay I get it: nobody, or virtually nobody agrees with me. I wanted to say what I felt and I have. I guess that's freedom of speech too. Now if anyone seriously wants to pursue any of the arguments here or feels they're being run out on, by all means PM me, but for now I have wasted enough time here trying to defend my opinion and it's time to step away and go looking for other people to annoy. I mean, back to my journals. Yeah. That's what I mean.

Hope nobody took serious offence, or takes it now. Just getting out before it gets any hotter.
Anyone who wishes to level accusations of cowardice or being a nancy at me go right ahead, but this argument has become circular and pointless and there really is nothing more I can say at this point. Sometimes, you just have to let it go.
