I am happy to see that you agree that storming an embassy is bad. Seriously because it is NOT obvious by what I replied to.
its not obvious whether they agree that storming an embassy is bad because they didnt say anything about the matter
I think just in general we should NOT act in a manner that would be considered offensive to another group just to be (for lack of a better work) a dick. The sad thing is, we already don’t live in that world and this refugee that burned the Quran might have been burning it as a “dick move” or maybe he was burning it because he has a very real and hurtful story of how he became a refugee from Iraq.
this does not sound like you think we should NOT act in a manner that would be considered offensive to another group just to be a dick
it sounds like making excuses, especially for someone complaining about folks making excuses
I can tell you I am biased toward any religion trying to tell me how to act. If I want to burn every holy book that I buy/own then I should be able to. Pushing your beliefs on others is wrong. Me burning a book doesn’t effect you unless you decide that it does. You forcing your religious laws on me does actually effect me even if I don’t believe in your religion
someone commenting that burning books to provoke violent outrage is vile falls under none of the above
What happens if I’m eating an unclean food infront of some extremist religious person? Do you think I’m trying to be offensive because I’m eating pork in public?
we arent talking about eating unclean food in front of some extremist person, equating the two is disingenuous
I’m not trying to schoolyard argue with you,
uhuh
I think giving up some acts of freedom of speech to religious extremists is a bad path to follow

We shouldn’t push people to violent acts, but one could argue that the refugee himself was pushed to this “violent act” by the extremists in his home country
the man in sweden was not pushed to burn a book because of the political climate in another country a continent away
