Where's the understanding? Where is the "Love Thy Neighbor"? Oh well, it's just an adult bookstore. Who really cares...right?
Do we, as a "Christian" society, not decry the Muslim faith for similar infractions? Do we not a raise a suspicious eyebrow at all Muslims that do not step up and openly condemn the most radical of thier bretheren?
Oh...even better...what if this act was not perpetrated by Christian Fundamentalists, at all? What if it were perpetrated by "Islamo-Facists"? that would put a different spin on it, now wouldn't it? Then, it's not a "moral act' of ridding the community of an "evil"...it's an open attack on an institutionalized American way of life.
Spin. Don't ya just love it?
OK...I'm done threadjacking. We now return you to your regularly scheduled debate.

Sometimes, it gets difficult keeping track of all the whackos out there. It's hard to be outraged at all times, at everyone who deserves it. Simply because you haven't heard a public outcry when you think one is merited, doesn't mean the "Christian Majority" doesn't care.
