Bad comparion

Meanwhile, a North Carolina-based website that pimps
for Al Qaeda (revolution.muslimpad.com) gets a pass
cuz it's "free speech" even though it promotes violence
against Americans."

The woman had a specific target/victim, and the very last email certainly promoted suicide. The linkage between the womsn snd her victim, and the victim's death, is clear and documented.

Give me one concrete case where a person was harmed specifically because of that website. Provide proof. No, I'm not talking about al Qaeda; they're already being pursued and punished by our military. I'm talking about that website. Show me one death or crime that can directly linked to that site.

Furthermore, there are blogs promoting violence against al Qaeda. I'm not saying that they're not justified, but the fact is that they exist. All because of free speech. Is the US shutting them down? Is al Quaeda shutting them down?

Indeed, isn't our own government promoting violence against al Quaeda? Are shooting US missiles at them not a form of violence? Was that famous deck of cards no t promoting violence?

It's a two way street, buddy. Please don't make a mockery of Megan's death or our war against terrorism by making a false comparison.
