Who the hell strolls into a Muslim festival carrying hate signs and yelling that Muslims are evil then whinges about those same Muslims fighting back? As far as I am concerned these Christians were lucky the Muslims didn't do anything worse to them, and even if they had I would say it was almost deserved.
If you walk into fire, expect to get burnt. You certainly don't whinge about it later.

I can just imagine what would happen if a Muslim group went to a fundamentalist southern baptist festival and started praising allah.
People would die.
What shred of evidence do you have to back that up besides your clear hatred and bigotry towards Christians?
Have you ever been around sounthern fundamentalist baptist's?
I have, and trust me when I say that people would die.
Not all of them are prone to violent reactions, but we are talking an=bout hardcore bible bangers, speaking in tounges hardcore. So yes, in my opinion it would end badly if they took the same tone as the xtians at the Muslim festival.
Extremists exist in every religion.

Just 10 days after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Rais Bhuiyan was working at a gas station in Dallas when he was shot in the face by a man named Mark Stroman.
Stroman was on a shooting spree, targeting people who appeared to be Muslim or of Middle Eastern descent. Stroman is due to be executed July 20; Bhuiyan, the only survivor of the attacks, is fighting to save his life.

Probably staged. Those "Christians" must have been paid really well to risk being in that situation. Divide and conquer has always been the plan all along.
Those Muslims are pathetic. You have to feel sorry for them.edit on 27-6-2012 by Nightwalk because: (no reason given)

Hate Speech says you... You people just do not get it. Is it just your point of view that is not hate speech? Their point of view doesn't get their turn at the table of the 1st Amendment? What is the matter with you people?
What a bunch of cowards we have here.
Then what is your take on the sign that says.
Muhammad is a ... Liar, false prophet, murderer, child molesting pervert.
I would like to know your opinion about it.
So when Comedy Central makes fun of Christians, it's hate speech? Those signs are directed towards one guy who lived thousands of years ago, not any single person or race.

Nope. The mob from both sides has ready-made answers before even knowing the context, instigator, situation and people involved.

i'll certainly say that nobody is right here, given that this happened under the rule of our constitution. the police should have given them more protection, the "christians" should have been more creative and came up with something positive to say, and the "muslims" should have realized how helpless these people are for attention and argumentation.
now i'm not saying that our constitution posits that we can deal with a situation like this to make all parties happy, rather that in hindsight they should have all at least attempted to be like minded. clearly this is too much to ask for, but i guess that's why there's a 24 page trail of conversation about this.
these "christians" should have picked better signs to come to a religious festival with other than ones that try to insult and belittle said religion. that's just ridiculous, and i'm with you guys - they deserved it, even if it was illegal.
