Read a Book Day; 9/11

Not going to link it but I'm sure you've all heard about the dumb fucks who think the best way to honor the memory of those who were killed by terrorists on 9/11 is to make it so American Soldiers will NEVER return home alive.
By insulting every Muslim on the face of the planet and proving that America REALLY IS someplace that doesn't really deserve to exist.

I'm not going to get into how dumb this is, or point out how Muslims also died at the trade center trying to SAVE people in it, so this isn't honoring the victims but pissing on their ashes.

I'm not going to get into how offensive it is to burn a book or to attack an entire religion as an expression of freedom.

Nor will I evoke Godwin's Law here, although in this case the parallels are getting disturbingly close.

Nor will I even talk about my idea of retaliation, which involved burning Bibles.

Instead I will let These guys tell you about it all. And hope that maybe the news will dignify this whole thing, by ignoring the attention seekers who are trying to do it.

This is not Boobquake, this is not Draw Muhammad day, this is not an expression of freedom, of frustration, of daring.
This is hate.

Pure, ignorant, hate.

So lets ignore the kid with the dunce cap in the corner and read a book instead.
