How well would that fly with CAIR? Nevernose May 2015 #12

None because, apparently, being an idiot is constitutionally protected. n/t 1StrongBlackMan May 2015 #9

Not only protected, it is very often rewarded. Shortly before he starred at the Inauguration Bluenorthwest May 2015 #68

I think her organization should be sued out of existance notadmblnd May 2015 #26

Who, exactly, would be the plaintiff? Nuclear Unicorn May 2015 #27

the security guard that was injured for one. notadmblnd May 2015 #29

I don't think the security guard would qualify because of "assumed risk" by Nuclear Unicorn May 2015 #31

Yeah, he'd have a better shot at suing a mosque. Dr. Strange May 2015 #33

Was this mosque advocating for the destrution for pam geller's group? notadmblnd May 2015 #37

I don't know but obviously someone fed them the idea they should kill "blaspemers." Nuclear Unicorn May 2015 #41
