Because you have to draw the line somewhere. Do we continue to bow down to these ragheads up to the point where they are cutting heads off here in America before we show them they don't dictate to us our rights?

So this is "drawing the line"? No. It's a bunch of blowhards acting like idiots and trying to entice a fight or worse.

Why is it not just as good to hold the event where the shooting took place?

By doing it at the mosque where those guys worshipped AND at worship time, they are just making themselves into another Westboro. You can't win the moral high ground by losing the moral high ground.

Draw the line? Dictating our rights? Just because you have the right to do something doesn't mean you have to be deliberately disrespectful to a person or a group. That's what this is, nothing more, nothing less.

Is it absurd that people get killed for drawing Mohammad? Yes, absolutely. But these bikers are deliberately trying to be disrespectful to a religion.

So if Westboro Baptist stops protesting funerals they are bowing down to gay people?


Also, has this specific mosque/community center been implicated in any kind of nefarious wrong doing? Does it have a history of preaching hate? Other than a couple of shite stains that happened to go there, have others from it done bad things to people for offending their religion? If not, why is this a place that needs to have such an event?
