They have the right to put just about anything on that sign and walk wherever they want to with it.
Whitney has been thoroughly discredited by later decisions. See Dennis v. United States, 341 U.S. 494, at 507 (1951). These later decisions have fashioned the principle that the constitutional guarantees of free speech and free press do not permit a State to forbid or proscribe advocacy of the use of force or of law violation except where such advocacy is directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action.

There is no moral equivalency between interrupting a Muslim gathering (which is wrong) and throwing rocks and other things at the people - which is assault i.e. a crime who interrupted it. Simply call the police if you want things handled.
Clearly, and not to surprisingly, these Muslims are in the wrong.
Inciting a riot is against the law, that is clearly what was going on here.
Oh, so now its Inciting a riot...Who attacked whom? Again, we go back to the playground rules of sticks and stones. Muslims can't handle real America. We get it.. they are a poor protect minority with no capacity for individual thought or American ideals. They will never evolve beyond what their limited imaginary prophet told them..
Sounds so much like the other sub-human groups that prowl around crying woe is me all the while assaulting little boys...
752.542 Inciting to riot.
Sec. 2.
It is unlawful and constitutes incitement to riot for a person or persons, intending to cause or to aid or abet the institution or maintenance of a riot, to do an act or engage in conduct that urges other persons to commit acts of unlawful force or violence, or the unlawful burning or destroying of property, or the unlawful interference with a police officer, peace officer, fireman or a member of the Michigan national guard or any unit of the armed services officially assigned to riot duty in the lawful performance of his duty.
History: 1968, Act 302, Imd. Eff. July 1, 1968
Even taking pleasure at your enemy's misery is prohibited yet many of the "Christians" I live near do just that.
It almost shocks me to read some members claiming the Muslims were in the wrong for reacting when the Christians clearly went to the festival to cause trouble.

I hope it is a small number,
You can look at the enormous amount of Charity work done world wide, but I already know what people will say about that.
I know most of todays Christians are nothing like Christ, but................. we aint Christ.

Freaks are all for the Muslims that had no grounds to physically attack them by throwing things
In this country you can walk anywhere in the public domain and say anything you want to
That is what is in our constitution
This country is in piss poor shape

They went in asking trouble. And when trouble found them they are all upset about it.
This. what else to say?
So you agree that people should have attacked OWS protesters, since it was obvious they were looking for trouble? Or is all this support for violent Muslims just because you all hate Christians? What is it about Islam that drives you all to so rabidly support it?

So the only way to protest is spouting inflammatory rhetoric? Don't you think these protestors could have found a way to protest without hate? How often does someone listen to your perspective when you are in their face with insults and telling them they are going to burn in hell if they don't listen? This was not a protest. This was a verbal assault meant stir up hate and violence.
"meant stir up hate and violence"
You Politically correct defenders of the Muslims are just amazing. In your mind they were forced to psychically assault people? Are you saying Arabs are less intelligent and can't handle the rule of "sticks and stones?" I may have to agree that Arabs are indeed lesser humans...
By your logic, I guess you could say the flaming Homosexual Gay Pride Parades make some violently angry. Some actually consider it a verbal and visual assault that stirs up hate and violence. I guess someone could just pick up a machine gun and mow all those homosexuals down because their interpretation of the Homosexual Pride parades are a destructive force in America not unlike the signs we see at this protest.
Please tell me where the difference is here? Where do we draw the line? Are only certain groups in America Protected? You people are so predictable.edit on 27-6-2012 by TruckDriver69 because: type

Both the Muslims and Christians were wrong. Christians went to this festival to get a negative reaction. The Muslims reacted with violence. Funny thing here is we blame the faith when its those who claim to practice these religions that corrupt and twist the message of these beliefs. Jesus is a prominent figure in both faiths and I see nothing of him in either sides actions.
