Muslims: Calm Down

Muslims: Calm Down
Maybe it should be CALM THE F*CK DOWN!!! If a crazy person makes a big deal about some guy named Bob who does something that would not bother a normal person, you don't blame Bob for the problem, you blame the crazy person for making a big deal about it! That's kind of the moral of this story!
:prof:
BTW, I'm thinking about changing the name on my account to PROFESSOR GREEN!!!

Okay, in this case Bob made a movie that was considered to be blasphemous by the crazy people and the crazy people reacted by killing someone who didn't actually have anything to do with Bob. Here in the USA Bob might be a lady who during a Super Bowl halftime show happened to have a wardrobe malfunction. The crazy people react by making a big deal over a breast being inadvertinently exposed for a couple seconds. Of course, nobody gets killed, but it's still a crazy over-reaction completely out of proportion to the actual event. The world is full of crazy people (a very high percentage of whom belong to religious organizations) and those of us who are sane always wind up having to work around their craziness.

Anti-American Protests Spread Across Middle East
Until these radical Muslims made a big deal about this stupid film probably fewer than ten people in the USA had even seen the stupid thing! How in the heck do they hold the government responsible for something that they had no way of even knowing about? Even if we lived in an extremely repressive dictatorship, there's no way that leaders could micro-manage and keep track of who is making what film. This makes no sense! And then there's the whole freedom of speech thing which is a concept that radical Muslims just can't seem to wrap their heads around!

New French Cartoons Inflame Prophet Film Tension
What a bunch of crybabies! Mature and intelligent people don't get all bent out of shape over a disrespectful cartoon!

Google won't remove Anti-Islam clip
I don't like the video, but I do think it should remain available for viewing. Freedom of speech is a core value that should not be compromised.

Innocence of Muslims
This is the film that all the fuss is about. It has almost 13 million views thanks to the idiots who decided to make a big deal over it. The film is horrible, but it's nothing to get all upset about!

Thumbs Up In Support Of FREE SPEECH!
At this point the video has:
41,581 likes
103,812 dislikes
I recommend giving the video a thumbs up in support of free speech. Although the video is poorly done, I support the right of people to express their opinions even if immature, self-righteous, insane idiots have a fit as a result! Blasphemy? Blasphemy only exists in the mind of a primitive and insane individual incapable of understanding the true value of anything spiritual or of a sublime nature.
