We all have a right to free speech.....but every journalism student knows that that free speech right does not allow you to scream "Fire" in a crowded theater ,thus endangering the lives and safety of others....
Today, because someone exercised their right to free speech...some imbecile.....A U.S. Ambassador and several others are dead and property was destroyed thousands of miles away...
Violent outbursts against the U.S. tore through Libya and Egypt last night, with protestors in Cairo scaling the embassy walls and tearing down an American flag and armed militiamen in Benghazi attacking a consultate and killing the U.S. ambassador and three other diplomats.
Florida's resident idiot and imbecile, hate-mongering pastor Terry Jones, of course, played a role in sparking the violence.
Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, called Pastor Jones this afternoon to withdraw his support for the video that sparked the violence. Initially, the New York Times and other outlets reported that the violence was set off by Terry Jones' latest stunt: proclaiming Sept. 11 as "International Judge Muhammad Day." But the latest reports this morning say Terry Jones was only a peripheral player in sparking the riots, which appear to have been primarily fueled by an amateurish anti-Islamic film produced by a California real estate developer.
This film, called "The Innocence of Muslims," depicts the Prophet Muhammad having sex and jokes about his ignorance. The film was made by Sam Bacile, a 52 year old virulently anti-Islamic activist who made the piece after collecting $5 million. There is a tie to Terry Jones, the central-Florida pastor who sparked his own bloody riots in Afghanistan after promoting a "Burn a Koran Day" at his church and has more recently hung President Obama in effigy.
Pastor Jones initially seemed unaware of the film, the , but then quickly sent an email to Bacile praising it for "reveal(ing) in a satirical light the life of Muhammad." The attacks in Libya have devastated the American diplomatic core. The State Department confirmed this morning that among the four diplomats killed was Christopher Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to the nation. "Chris was a courageous and exemplary representative of the United States. Throughout the Libyan revolution, he selflessly served our country and the Libyan people at our mission in Benghazi," President Obama said in a statement this morning that also condemned the "cowardly" attacks.
The blood of these people is dripping from the hands of Sam Bacile and Terry Jones...I doubt if either one of these kooks cares...and there is probably nothing legally that can be done to either one of them... Sam Bacile....Coward that he is...Is in hiding right now. Wonder why? I hope the equally fanatical Islamist extremists find him...It would serve him right.
As for Pastor and I say that with as little reverence as possible, Terry Jones..I am 100 percent certain that when he dies , he's going to get the biggest surprise ever.... If I were him, I might invest in a couple of powerful air conditioners...because where he's going...he'll need them!

While Romney is dogging Obama, why has he said absolutely nothing about the extreme right winger who made the film that caused all of this mess that got our Ambassador killed?
He said absolutely NOTHING about that at all.
Ok some estranged American, Anti-islamic felon created an ORIGINALLY BOOTLEG MOVIE. Later him and his Anti-Islamic friends added s twist and recreated the movie having MOHAMMED appear to be a children molestor, womanizer etc. It is against their religion to depict him as ANYTHING. I'm not sure there wasn't malicious intent. I mean do we make movies depicting Jesus as gay? Its a bit harsh....IJS
It was malicious, however they get billions of dollars in US federal aid, while we will still suffer under a somewhat weak economy... They may want to stop being so sensitive...
Romney doesn't see anything wrong with crazy ass rhetoric like that! He's suppose to be this religious man, yet he won't condemn this nonsense!
Romney will have to ask his 17 Bush Advisors on Foreign Policy first . It aint happening !
LOL! @ Grover!
I am respectful of other people's faith. But this violent reaction in the Middle East to that stupid movie is beyond the pale, and I'm not even going to try to understand it. I doubt if many of the protesters even saw it. And the Benghazi attack, in my view, was a planned assassination using the protests as a cover.
