2. Yes, and don't stop there! We need amendments to protect everyone from ever being offended!

3. You can't legislate stupid.
Jones is a stupid fuck and that combined with his glib holier than thou nonsense makes him worhty of ridicule. But I don't think banning his behavior will make much difference.

6. No, but...
We should buy people like the idiot in Florida a trip to the middle east. Then we announce when and where he will be arriving on all over the middle east.

I thought maybe it should be a one way ticket but buy the round trip and if the guy survives a week in the middle east, he can come home.

11. I said no because this guy is one crazy guy - I do not want to waste
the time when there are a lot of other things we need to do. We cannot let one idiot turn our attention away from these other issues. That is exactly what he wants.

17. Hell no.
Burning a Koran, or any religious book, is not something I would do, but I respect the right of others to do so. We can't let one fundie idiot force us to give up our freedom of speech.
