Breitbart: “$10,000 Muhammad Art and Cartoon Contest to be Held at ...in Texas”
Atlas Shruggs ^ | 02/12/2015 | Pamela Geller

Posted on 02/12/2015 12:37:35 PM PST by Rusty0604

Pamela Geller is planning a “Draw the Prophet” event in Garland, Texas in the same location as Muslim group held a “Stand with the Prophet” conference in January. The First Annual Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest will be hosted by the Curtis Caldwell Center, which is owned and operated by the Garland Independent School District.

During the Free Speech Rally in Garland, Geller spoke with Breitbart Texas about her reaction to the large and loud crowd of protesters. She said that Muslims are trying to impose restrictions on free speech like they are doing in Paris. “Thousands of Americans said ‘no way!’”

“The media can smear us and the President can stand with them,” Geller said. “We the people are not having it. If there is any proof of that, it’s today. We dwarfed them.”

“If the Western media ran the Danish cartoons back when this Islamic supremacist movement first started gaining steam, the editorial staff of Charlie Hebdo would be alive today,” Geller stated in response to an inquiry from Breitbart Texas. “That said, the European press ran the Hebdo cartoons in the wake of that jihad slaughter. But the American press would not. The beacon of freedom, the shining light on a hill, is running scared. Well, that’s not who we are. The elites do not represent the people.”

“Enough is enough,” she explained. “They’re just cartoons. We’re holding this exhibit and cartoon contest to show how insane the world has become — with people in the free world tiptoeing in terror around supremacist thugs who actually commit murder over cartoons. If we can’t stand up for the freedom of speech, we will lose it — and ... free society.”

The art exhibit and contest will be held at the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland on May 3rd.

You don't have to be an artist or be able to draw to do a cartoon. Look how the goofy looking ones are the best and the funniest.

DJ in Dallas "Ben Ferguson" 840am was rambling on about how we're so much better than this
and how we should be against the Bad Muslims and this would hurt relations, or some
crap like that. The one caller I heard was just a wishy-washy and pacifist. Then something
about a Terrorist attack on the event, blah blah blah. Pussy.

I was glad he brought it up so that more people will know to attend and
more people will understand that REAL American's don't take threats like wimps..

Whether or not this actually happens, it should draw a huge amount of publicity and create discussions everywhere.

Should. But will the weak-kneed press be brave enough to even mention it?

May peaceful muzzies apply for the contest?

If none do, we will know that there are no peaceful muzzies.
