Let me brief Linda Stasi and whoever cleared this pap appearing in their paper: the whole idea of America is that you are allowed to discuss your religious and political views publicly without being killed for them. America is a place were we do NOT look at a situation where a person (along with 13 of his coworkers) gets shot to death by a religiously intolerant terrorist just for preaching his faith and say, “Well, they were both sort of at fault here.” That’s kind of the reason our forefathers left Europe.

The reality, of course, is that only one religion gets this kind of treatment from people like Linda Stasi and the New York Daily News. Let’s suppose that the roles were reversed. Imagine that Farook was a loud obnoxious Muslim who had Facebook links to leftist political causes, and a Messianic Jew responded to his workplace proselytizing by going home, grabbing his wife, and returning to work and shooting over 30 people with assault rifles. I know you probably can’t even imagine that because so far as I know, a Jewish person has literally never been involved in domestic terrorism, which is pretty incredible if you stop to think about it. But humor me for a second and try to imagine it.

Do you think anyone from the New York Daily News or anywhere else in the media would right now be saying, “well gee, Farook was kind of at fault here”? Of course not. Muslims get special consideration in the “popping off and killing a bunch of people” department from people like Stasi. If someone draws an insulting picture of Jesus and a Christian kills him, that would be universally condemned (if, hypothetically, it ever happened, which it doesn’t for some weird reason). If someone draws an equivalent picture of Mohammed and their whole workplace gets shot up, that’s “understandable” and “legitimate.”
