Pamela Geller, the outspoken head of the American Freedom Defense Initiative, has spoken out after her group’s Mohammed Cartoon event was targeted in a shooting attack by Muslim terrorists on Sunday night.
In an interview with CNN, Geller lashed out at the media “elites” for criticizing her group—the attackers’ intended victims—as opposed to radical Islamists responsible for such violent attacks.
The event had offered a $10,000 award for the best cartoon depicting the founder of Islam, Mohammed, and featured a speech by Dutch MP Geert Wilders, among other prominent critics of Islam. […]
The prize was won by an ex-Muslim, Geller noted, as she responded to a grilling by her interviewer, who asked whether she realized “just how dangerous an event like this could be?”
“It’s dangerous because increasingly we are abridging our freedoms so as not to offend savages,” Geller shot back. …

“People may agree or disagree with him, or they may question his belief in photography, but how can anyone find in his work just obscenity and disrespect? It is hard to believe that anyone whose faith is searching and secure would not be grateful for what Mr. Serrano has done.”
-The NYTimes (originally, December 8, 1989) defending “Piss Christ”
What did the NYTimes have to say about this event?
Pamela Geller has to be protected . By all of us .
We lost Andrew Brietbart and that was a grievous loss .
He was fearless . Pamela is fearless . WE need to protect her . At all costs
Is that for real?
Its good to talk about piss Christ. In the case of piss Christ, the issue supposedly is freedom of speech, freedom of expression, without regard to how offensive people of faith find piss Christ to be.
But in the case of Mohammed cartoons and drawings the criteria are different. Here the criteria are that we should not offend the religious beliefs of certain people with depictions of their prophet which they deem offensive. The concept of freedom of speech or freedom of expression goes out the window when Islam is involved.

Forced to make an unimaginable choice. Be burned alive or muster the courage to jump to your death.
Horrific. Absolutely horrific.
The left is in an alliance with the jihadis. The left will lie to protect them.
They both share the goal of destroying this country’s Christian/Jewish foundation.

- Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings; substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
- Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness; repulsive, meaningless art.”
- Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
- Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio and TV.
- Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, and healthy.”
- Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”
What would the jumpers say if they knew America
was ruled by a Moslem impostor leading a docile
Congress into ARMING AL QAEDA?
Tagline worthy.
As the Islamists and the Islamoserviles in government and the MSM work to destroy our Republic there will be a backlash.
At that point the majority of Muslims will need protection and that means internment not to punish them but to protect them. The citizens will be accommodated separate from known and suspected enemies -- just as was the case in W.W.II.
Alternatively the majority of Muslims can join the rest of us to rid America of the Islamist minority now. Today.
Has the winning picture been revealed?
Yes, that is an actual quote about that artifact.
Well then. The NYT damn well better assert — that Muslims should be “grateful” that artists are drawing cartoons of Mohamud
SHAMEFUL ATTACKS BY THE DHIMMIT MEDIA TO PAMELA GELLER AND GERT WILDERS
The American “Dhimmitude” media, cowed by Islamic violence, has accepted total submission to the mandates of the Islamic terrorists.
Pamela Geller, Gert Wilders, and Bosch Fawstin (the winner of the contest) are real heroes that have not accepted to be intimidated by Islamic terrorists. It is denigrating for the American media to see their pundits attacking the freedom of expression of those opposed to the Islamization of U.S.
On January 17,2015 and in the same public school center, there was a “Stand with the Prophet” rally by Muslims, a provocative pro-Shariah law event, by supporters of Al-Qaida and Isis organized by one of the terrorists implicated in the bombing of the garage of the NY World Trade Center in 1993.
I wonder if those who try to blame the organizers of the “First Annual Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest,” for the Muslim terrorist attack would have justified if a patriotic American had irrupted in the Muslim rally on January and made a massacre of Islamic terrorists. After all, Americans are profoundly offended by their provocation and the abuse of our freedoms by those who made the Muslim rally in support of the savages that decapitate, crucify and burned Christians alive.
The “Dhimmitude” media, scared by Islamic violence, auto-censors itself and tries to justify the terrorist attack in Texas because the Mohamed cartoons contest offended the sensibility of Islamic terrorists.
On January 2015, radical Islamists desecrated the holy soil of Texas. Do not mess with Texas!!!
