what the hell are you idiots talking about?
no outrage.. right. not only does this not happen anymore, but these are all highly sensitive subjects, and to this day we still erect monuments, are still apologizing, and teach every one of these things in our schools so that we can
LEARN FROM OUR PAST! i don't understand your points. because the world has a tumultuous past, that makes what radical muslims are doing as ok? it's excusable? hey, they did it! so can we! and besides that i take issue with some of the comparisons made here. no outrage over nazi germany? what the f*ck do you consider WW2 to be? a birthday party?
besides, it's all completely irrelevant. what's boortz is doing in that piece is comparing the muslim nation's reactions versus ITSELF. they shit their pants at a cartoon, and go absolutely nutty, yet they don't give a crap that their people are killing innocent men, women, and children day in and day out.
and by the way, christians get made fun of EVERYWHERE, EVERY FREAKIN' DAY! i can easily find at least one thing a day making fun of Christ, or the Christian religion. "no outrage from the Christian world."
way to screw up a point, guys..
