Berkeley Students Call On University To Cancel Speech By ‘Bigot and Racist’ Bill Maher

200. That is what I called Islamic exceptionalism.

No one can say anything negative about Islam, not even a teensey weensey bit, lest they are painted as bigots near uniformly by the entire community.

These same students would do the same thing to Salman Rushdie who is clearly not a bigot. They would also protest a speech by the leader of the Free Muslim group - http://www.freemuslims.org/issues/terrorism.php

Fareed Zakaria still believes there is a problem within Islam that needs to be addressed:

“Muslims need to take more active measures to protest these heinous acts. They also need to make sure that Muslim countries and societies do not in any way condone extremism, anti-modern attitude, and intolerance towards other faiths. Muslims are right to complain that there is anti-Muslim bigotry out there. But they would have a more persuasive case if they would take on bigotry within the world of Islam as well.”

Only the ones that have anything negative to say about Islam, no matter how rational, will be banned.
