The authorities had better track down, arrest, and incarcerate every person who uttered those threats. I am sick and tired of hearing that Muslims are angry about people pointing out how violent they and their religion are.

If our politicians and law enforcement officials don’t start reacting, maybe the best thing for the rest of us to do is become terrorists ourselves.

Muslim Extremists are Trying to Shut Down Dutch Film on Islamic Fascism…

There’s just a big brouhaha going on because of the Geert Wilders film, Fitna. Obviously, a lot of people saw that coming and many people and groups tried to stop it from being released from the get-go.
I watched the film and saw acts of terrori…

Steve-O, it sounds like at least one of LiveLeak’s employees was directly, personally threatened with violence.

The British media helped to locate LiveLeak staff members so that
Islamists could threaten them?

This is insane. LiveLeak should name the members of the British media who did such a thing, so that they can live the rest of THEIR lives in fear.

As a friend of mine commented about the Islamists who threated Liveleak: "If you dare show us as killers, we will kill you".

LiveLeak did its bit, it is out there. There are still many sites hosting it with embed codes.

I feel bad LiveLeak had threats issued against their staff, but the genie is out of the bottle and many are standing up for the free speech issues and posting it still.

Just because Wilders is an ass, doesn’t mean his rights to free speech to BE an ass should be taken away.

Fitna pulled off of LiveLeak…

Yesterday I blogged about Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders’ just-released 15 minute film Fitna, which was posted on numerous video sites, removed from some sites, and reposted at other video sites. LiveLeak was one of the few multimedia sites that kept…

A powerful film worthy of wide dissemination. The price was too high? What is the price of cowardice, anyway?

So, the terrorists win again. "We stood for what we believed in…" ‘until we learned there would be a price for that.’ There, fixed that for ya, LiveLeak. Free speech will not survive if this attitude becomes prevalent. That cliche, "freedom isn’t free" comes to mind. LiveLeak had to know the threats would come, they "stood" just long enough to get a traffic bump, and then folded.

Besides this craven apology, should they not have refereed all the threats to both the US FBI and the UK Scotland Yard?
