You are about one step away from having a fatwa issued against you.

Thankfully we have the right and the courage to speak our minds here in Europe unlike the USA.

Try denying the holocaust in Germany or making antisemitic remarks in a Parisian bar. Have you finally at long last totally lost your fucking mind???

I don't live in Germany or France. But I can burn as many Qurans as I wish - unlike in the USA.

It is not asinine, in fact not doing it is asinine, the reason being that if the government or anybody else tries to oppress your freedom of speech, it is imperative to draw a line in the sand and throw that oppression back in their face. The same can be said about burning the American flag or any other flag for that matter. The U.S. Supreme Court has already said that flag burning is free speech. Unfortunately, there has not been a case of flag burning in the United States for a number of years because the American public has a yellow streak up its back wider than the ones found on a highway.

Why is it asinine? I told everybody why it's not asinine, or are you just talking out of your ass-inine again!

That's what Salmon Rushdie thought, and he's still running today!

Salman Rushie is a great example of freedom of thought in the UK to have an British author write Satanic Verses..
Which rather fucks your idea in the arse, moron!

He lives in New York City because the decadent British government couldn't protect him from the Muslims. Maybe I'll offer him an honorary membership in JAMit!

Nope.
Salman Rushdie lives where he likes. He likes New York because there is less freedom for people who want to practice the Islamic Faith. He is more at home with the atheists who swarm the city.

Anyway I thought you said he was still running. Idiot!

i tried reading the satanic verses my god i have never tried reading anything more boring

salman rushdie is a talentless hack threw in some offensive stuff just to get noticed

which i suppose is his right but he is still a talentless hack
