A century ago, the Dutch might have hanged the perps and their accomplices. Today, I suspect they’d be leery of merely deporting them and their families.

Every civilized country should put giant billboards up with moHAMed cartoons. For every one that gets torn down put up three more.

A huge electronic billboard in I75 in Cincinnati now flashes a message “Find Jesus in the Koran”. I dont know whether to vomit it shoot it up.
