Bacon & Beer

"It's all about the bacon." Jesus Christ, Lamb, The Gospel According to Biff. "THEY'RE ON OUR RIGHT, THEY'RE ON OUR LEFT, THEY'RE IN FRONT OF US, THEY'RE BEHIND US: THEY CAN'T GET AWAY FROM US THIS TIME." "Chesty" Puller at the Chosin Reservoir. “Come on you sons of bitches, do you want to live forever?!” Gunnery Sergeant Dan Daly at the WWI battle of Belleau Wood.

This may be hopeful

  • Muslim Apology for Angry Response to Stupid Cartoons


  • Seems like a rational piece, urging a democratic, calm response instead of CARTOON RAGE!!! except for this:

    "However, at the same time there is a need to realize that freedom of expression is a responsibility that should not be used to gratuitously insult people’s beliefs."

    Why? Why can't I gratuitously insult someone's beliefs? It might not be nice, but should there be legal restrictions against it? I don't think so. There's all kinds of stuff out there gratuitously insulting Christians. Do I blow things up? Nope. Do I want those people not to be allowed to say those things? Absolutely not. Fire away; God can take it.
