Absolutely no argument there. I have zero tolerance for Islamic fundamentalism with any bully edge or worse.

But note that Jones is also being cute with this: he's one of those hate filled Rapture types who would like to see this fight and knew damn well that by doing so this could help do it given he knew there are plenty eagre 'volunteers' within the Muslim community who are as fanatical and violent-prone as he is.

I make a distinction between what Jones did as opposed to, say, what the cartoon drawers did. It's about intent. Jones' intent was to start this shit.

Like hate filled Muslim fanatics, he's a hate filled Christian one:

Dove World Outreach Center - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

They're the same insofar as hating gays, etc, but they hate each other too. Equal opportunity haters to be frank, and that's all they wish to inflict on others.

I agree.

To be fair, I think perhaps the most evenhanded approach would involve burning all symbols people regard holy, videotaping it, and putting it on youtube.

Any religious person that kills over desecration of a book or symbol should be committed or imprisoned.

Any patriotic person that kills over desecration of a flag or national symbol should receive the same.

The sooner we figure out who the crazies are among us, the better off the rational rest of us are.

EDIT: To clarify, when I say "all", I mean one of each, not all symbols that are in existence.
