And I said I AGREE with the bolded statement. Violence is wrong. Instigating is also wrong. Nowhere have I said it's ONE person's fault. The entire situation was created by both parties and couldn't have happened without both parties. It was mutual combat as presence has backed up. No one was righteous. Period.
Do you feel that if you say both sides are bad you are in the wrong or something? Is that somehow condoning jihadists?
God spoke to me last night and told me the word "Wizard" is blasphemous. Please change your username or face death in the name of my religion.
So, are you? By your logic you absolutely should.
Remove retards with guns = no conflict
Remove retards inciting violence by drawing cartoons = no conflict
Two set of bad guys. No good guys. Are we keeping up?
You need to explain how drawing a historical figure makes one a bad guy. You KNOW islam also bans drawing/depicting Jesus, right? You KNOW islam bans eating pork, right? You know it bans homosexuality, right? How many of their rules do we need to follow? Just like I don't accept christians telling me I can't curse or have premarital sex, I don't accept muslims telling me who I may or may not draw.
REMEMBER: No one is harmed by any cartoon ever.
REMEMBER: Shooting someone can only be intended to cause harm
THEREFOR: One side was NOT causing harm, the other side was TRYING to cause harm. So now we've figured out there WERE good and bad guys. Great.
Are you trying to say that there are no places in the US where a woman risks being raped by dressing slutty and walking about alone? Cos men taking advantage of a woman is something that only happens in oversea countries.
There is a reason why bait cars, to catch a predator etc etc works even in the US. if you bait a criminal, they will likely show up and what better way to bait a rapist than to dress slutty and walk around alone.
Most rapes are by someone the victim knows well, so your strategy is flawed.
A woman has every right to walk around dressed however she would like. A cartoonist has every right to draw whatever they would like. No one has the right to rape, and no one has the right to murder. I don't understand the confusion here. Sure, it might be dumb to put yourself in a knowingly dangerous situation (dress slutty in a prison yard filled with convicted rapists), but having a cartoon contest in TEXAS with multiple armed guards is not such a situation
Don't know if you are. It's the internet, dude. You could be a child, a cop, me, a robot, or a figment of my imagination.
Because of the nature of the medium I must judge you by your words alone.
Your sentence indicated you were clueless what the poster you quoted was saying, but you sided against the shooters anyway even though you are obviously aware of the whole story.
By taking one side when both sides are guilty you show your true intent. Or at least that's what your words say.
I can't believe what people "say they are" online because the back-pedaling is atrocious because of the fact that no one follows anyone and holds them accountable. I must hold people accountable for their words, post by post.
I misunderstood the context of his post, as you pointed out.
No one at the cartoon event is "guilty" of anything. Unless one of them is George Bush or Barack Obama or another known war criminal, no one there committed a violent act. The shooters (as in, the ones who came there to do the shooting, not those shooting back in defense) are guilty (pending further investigation, of course) of trying to turn a peaceful event into a bloodbath over an obscure and radical religious view.
