    I'm more liberal than not, but I kind of agree with this guy.

    I'm bothered by people who are still living like it's the middle ages (when it comes to religious practices). Thats kind of my way to saying I agree with him.

    But i don't think people who are Islamic who live in the US are like this.

    I wonder how much longer this guy is going to be alive.

    What bothers me is that Islam treats women like shit, but it's okay because it's their religion.

    Woman is raped? Stone her for adultery, but it's okay because it's part of their religion.

    I really liked the guy's sweater! Stylish old man!

    As for the video... I think this is no better than ones of Muslims screaming racism and free speech. I find him offensive! :P

    I keep thinking the pot calling the kettle black.

    "Islam" doesn't do anything. It isn't a person. What this dude is offended by are the actions of people who are Muslim.

    Ask a Muslim what the punishment for someone who abandons Islam is and if it is justifiable.

    The road to serfdom is paved with religions of peace.

    And what do you think they would say?
