Default Support the Danish!

After reading about Denmark and their problems with the Arabs I have
found a few ways to support the country.


OK....stop the special bus at the next corner, open the window, and tell
me about your delusion:

1) A (typically) stupid Christian publication starts this whole mess by
publishing a picture that offends an (equally) stupid bunch of Muslims.

2) The Danish government responds by saying it supports free speech,
instead of saying "Hey...you got a problem with that cartoon? Take it up
with these shmucks". By doing so, it creates an image of solidarity with
the shmucks. The audience is...guess who? Religious fanatics in the Middle
East, precisely equivalent to the morons who published the cartoons. No
brains on either side. Free speech and separation of church & state? Alien
concepts. The Muslim shmucks assume that the Danish government is arm in
arm with the Christian shmucks. Great.

3) The Danish government sees its holdings around the world being
attacked, and you think we should say one friggin' word in its support,
when it could've distanced itself from the PRIVATELY RUN PUBLICATION that
started the mess?

If Forbes Magazine, or Time or Newseek had published the cartoons first,
you would've come up with all sorts of reasons why "it's different". But,
a Christian publication somehow deserves "support" when its actions
generate conflict.

Bull****.
