[quote]The event was sponsored by the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) and attended by its president and co-founder, Pamela Geller — who is also president of Stop Islamization of America (SIOA). [b]Both are listed as hate groups by the Southern Poverty Law Center[/b].

Geller, a prominent campaigner against plans for a mosque near Ground Zero, is author of "The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War on America." In 2013 she was reportedly barred from entering Britain, where she was due to speak at a rally organized by the far-right group English Defense League.[/quote]

I'm not siding with the shooters in any way, but the person running this event was asking for and expecting violence. This was not a "free speech" event. It was an "insult Islam" event. [/quote]

If your religion can't take a little criticism, maybe you should find a new religion.

Or  move someplace less tolerant than the United States.  Maybe someplace where insulting your religion is punished by death.  I can think of several countries right now.[/quote]
