Reply #46: but seriously [View All]

that our "country" may have perpetrated what you believe are comparable acts (but seriously, please show me where american civilians have gone apeshit over a cartoon, cuz i can't find an example) ...

Hmm. Invading two countries who had committed no aggression and killing many thousands of people, in response to the acts of a dozen or so people unrelated to those countries or the people in them and the resulting deaths of fewer than 4,000.

And that's just in this century, and just the major offences against just a couple of countries/peoples in just two places in the world.

Talk about apeshit over-reaction, eh? Who said anything about a cartoon, anyway?

The people with their hands over their ears going wah wah are the ones saying it's over a cartoon; you seem to have joined them so that you could avoid the entire point of the post you replied to: that it ISN'T over a cartoon. In so many ways.

... does not excuse these lunatic islamofascists from doing the same.

If only all you folks making these self-righteous and largely self-evident pronouncements about what is and isn't excused and justified could find anyone here who had said that it WAS, all those pronouncements might occasionally have been worth making.

I really do wonder whether it's time to ask whether the grievances of a few rich white men over some taxes they objected to justified or excused killing anybody. I suspect it's only one's own grievances that ever justify that kind of thing.
