"If a major newspaper published a political cartoon mocking Jesus, you can bet your hood that Pat Robertson and many others would call for protests, and a few right-wing pundits would "wish" out loud that the artists and newspaper owners would be "accidentally" raped and shot, etc. I do doubt that Americans would riot over it though. After all, we're civilized in America, right? We only riot over important things, like when our sports team loses, or when our sports team wins... hmmmm."



So many times here when we get reports that someone on the right has cancer, is in the hospital, has a troubled child...we hear lightly or even un-veiled comments hoping they die and go to hell, yada yada.

We're all nasty creeps now and then, huh?
