(Sigh)

Let's not pretend you're not fully aware of the point I was making.

No, let's assume I'm not Russ. What is the difference if their faith is such that they feel compelled or righteous to act in the way that they do? Assuming that one, anyone, considers faith to be a viable argument for belief then who is to discern their faith driven actions as right or wrong?

Not biting. Take your particular brand of petty and unwarranted pedantry elsewhere. You know exactly what point I was making, why you feel the need to drift off and look for things that just aren't there are known to you alone.

It was you that said "we're" Russ, not me.

It's there whether you like it or not.

Thunderf00t's just put up a video about the shootings. Watch it quick because it might get taken down.

There's some stuff in there which certainly looks like, sounds like and smells like preaching hatred. I wonder if anything was done about those doing the preaching...

In fairness the BBC do have a duty to protect their staff .Depicting Mohamed in pictures is an insult to the religion and deliberatley antagonising Muslims is not what the BBC is there to do

Just hope gingers and fat people don't jump on the bandwagon then.

It's a fair point, should the BBC depict Mohammed in any way it sees fit thereby telling the world it doesn't back down from terrorists or should it have restrictions in case making jokes leads to attacks on its staff?

Deliberately insulting Muslims is not the same not backing down to terrorists .Going on a shooting spree because a magazine took the pee out of Islam is way OTT ,that does not mean anyone has the right to go around deliberately insulting Muslims

At the risk of sounding stupid.
they take offence to a lot of things.
they'd still go around killing even if you weren't offending them.

the stupidest part of it all is that they want to live in a country that offends them. offends them because you are not of the same belief.

and that you do things that they wouldn't do in their own country. that neither you or they are actually in.

We are all capable of taking offence at a lot of things, all of us. Where you may or may not live does not determine how you are offended, or by whom. Offence doesn't recognise borders in that sense.

99% of Muslims in the UK or France or any other Western country are not offended by the country they live in and lets face it ,you yourself have not been over generous in your views of the country you live in .
