Q: Why aren't angry Muslims in the United States torching buildings owned by Danes, Norwegians, French, Spanish and other Cartoon Infidels whose newspapers have printed cartoons, first published in Denmark, bearing the likeness of the Prophet Muhammad?
A: Because American Muslims have better things to do.
Here lies an important fact, too little mentioned or explored. The recent outburst of righteous arson in the Muslim world has been described as a warning to the West, a sign that radical Islam has become a force of considerable sweep and power, an indicator that terrorists have mastered propaganda techniques capable of sending raging hordes into the streets in a matter of minutes.
But another explanation fits the facts. The mayhem has centered in four nations: Afghanistan, Lebanon, Pakistan and Syria. Each has a double-digit unemployment rate, and poverty rates between 32 percent and 52 percent. All have large pools of idle men who can show up for a mob activity at a moment's notice. In short, they're havens for losers, uniquely equipped to stage such spectacles.
Even so, it took Danish Imam Abu Laban and a handful of other inciters five months to foment the riots. Laban began touring the Middle East last fall, bearing a dozen cartoons — many of which were sloppy and amateurish — first published in a Danish paper. They contained unflattering depictions of Muhammad.

They tossed in another bad drawing of a character saying, "I'm a pedophile," along with a photo-shopped tableau of a dog having its way with a Muslim bent in prayer.
Then they put together a list

Thank you. Thank you very much.
Just like the liberal protestors in this country. I see very few elderly or kids at these protests but working age people and wonder do these people not have jobs that they have to be attending to?
Yes: I would say its six of one and half a dozen of the other.
Such as busting up liquor stores with ballbats?
Uh? We're back to one of FDR's programs? National Recovery Act???
Well... crud. That's what I get for googling "NRA logo," and snatching the first image i see. :)
Actually I think he may have spoken too soon.
They needed to play it legel here and get permits etc. We'll see our protests soon as there was a CAIR organization meeting yesterday here in Ohio.
A make work program devised by Franklin Deleno Roosevelt?
I didn't know that was still around.
