    What's funny about those two tweets is that the first one (a protest) is called terrorism while the second one (a call for murder) is not.

    I think it's funny that this protest is considered controversial and provocative. Drawing cartoons is neither.

    things get twisted when there is hate coming from every direction. and of course those bikers are doing nothing wrong, the problem though is they are mostly filled with hate. at least i assume most of them do.

    yeah the white supremacist forum i used to be in had a lot of harley and hog riders. most of them are white and blue collar and very conservative. i don't know if ppl who support them are stupid enough not to know their real beliefs (liberals would faint if they heard what a lot of them say behind closed doors about blacks, mexicans, moslems) or they pretend to be ignorant about who really is in this crowd and say it's just an innocent free speech protest lol. last week some dbag tried to bs how he supported a lot of anti immigrant protesters which is fine to protest but said a lot of the swastikas in that crowd were just a coincidence or a hindoo symbol. :rolleyes:

    So if a bunch of bearded guys showed up in your church's parking lot wielding ak-47's and looking might threatening - you feel that's not controversial???

    :confused:

    I think threatening and intimidating a group of people just because they are a different religion is horribly wrong.

    It's the exact opposite, they showed up at the Garland shooters' mosque to demonstrate that they wouldn't be intimidated by Islamic terrorism (and had the means to defend themselves).

    They are probably stupid and racist.

    Where does it say ak47?

    I'm a little bit wary of bikers in general after this recent Waco incident. I roll up my windows (manually) if I am in the unfortunate situation where I am stopped next to some of these people at a traffic light.

    Dafuq?

    Also, Reza Aslan is still a paid shill, fanatical Islam propagandist.

    On a related note, when is Rahowa going to occur? Like the second coming of Christ, people have been convincing me it is right around the corner. I'm starting to get impatient.

    lol what's next, maybe the LA Crips can gather together outside a mosque too to demonstrate they are not "intimidated" by Muslim Terrorists

    I wonder who has the higher chance of disturbing peace in America, Muslims or a bunch of armed biker gangs

    The average member of an armed biker gang is several times more likely to disturb the peace than an average Muslim.

    Do they have something against the people who worship at this mosque, specifically?

    I don't believe the intent here is to make a statement about free speech; it is blatant provocation directed towards wackos. They are basically daring a Jihadist to show up and try something.

    Hopefully the security in place prevents anything violent from happening.
