Their bodies should not be returned to their families, they should be mulched and thrown into landfill with no ceremony and no marker.

All records of their existence should be expunged, mention of their name be made illegal. All their assets should be seized. Immediate family should be forced to change their identity.

Erase these ****ers from history.

So sad. F religion

The political gain is this thread.

Billions of dollars worth of free publicity from sensationalist news coverage and morons discussing it endlessly online.

You really want terrorism to end? Then shut the **** up about it or your part of the problem.

Sounds like you're part of the problem

It is down to people. It is just possible someone will eventually figure this out and run an effective viral campaign. But you'd have to make it a social norm not to discuss terrorism, not trivial.

Thats not strictly true. The IRA wanted a free and independent Irelands and as ludicrous as it sounds ISIS want to establish a global caliphate.

Terrible tragedy heart goes out to those affected. Sucks for law abiding Muslims as well who have to put up with the threat of terrorism but with the added pressure of having to deal with suspicion and probably some abuse as well.

Wherever Islamic terrorism happens we should build a large statue of the prophet getting ****ed up the arse by a pig. A defiant memorial to our right to offend, our freedom of religion, and to be free of religion if we so choose.

Yeah, that will teach everyone to respect the values of freedom. Brilliant idea.

I will not personally attack the poster.
I will not personally attack the poster.
I will not personally attack the poster.

Yea because that wont worsen religious tensions and alienate young impressionable Muslims.

This kind of response is the goal of the terrorist.

Well done.

Fantastic speech by Trump. These turds aren't monsters, they're losers.

Disagree, after the Oklahoma bombing

NSFW

[Spoiler]we should have built a hundred foot statue over the bomb site of a white woman gangbanged by black men and loving it to show the white supremacists. Joking of course.[/Spoiler]

We should hold a huge nationwide party and take pictures of Muslims having fun with non Muslims. Then we send a drone to drop hundreds of thousands of these photographs wherever these extremists are.

Yes, because appeasement - which is what we're doing - is working so well.

The goal of the terrorist is a seat at the table - worked for the IRA, now working for Islamic extremism.

Not this.


Not sure if serious but yeah this.

If you want to piss off isis go out find the nearest muslim you can and give them a big hug. In the long term advocate for a free open and tolerant society that is welcoming to all people. isis ****ing hate that ****.

Compromise and send them interracial Muslim porn videos.

In what way are we engaged in appeasement of terrorists? Did Barack Obama let ISIS annex of portions of Czechoslovakia and declare peace in our time?

Or you mean appeasement, i.e., we didn't build the Mohammed as raping statue thing, like some dumbass right-winger theory of the world?

Just want to make sure we share some common understanding of the English language before we move forward here.

I mean we're constantly bombing isis in syria and we're taking them out in iraq pretty much methodically hunting and killing them city by city town by town. That's a weird definition of appeasement you've got there.

*you're

I recommend watching the documentary "7/7 ripple effect" by Richard hall before pointing the finger at evil muslims

The IRA got a seat at the table because they renounced their terrorist activities, not in spite of them. If they were still bombing every other weekend they'd be ground into dust, just like ISIS is. Besides it's a mistake to assign a collective conscious to these things.

There's no collective mind or movement sorting out political goals with these things is down to individuals and small groups and their perceptions of the world.

The handlers often have nihilistic or apocalyptic visions of the world where violence is an end into itself and for the people carrying it out violence often has a redemptive quality to it. In other words it's less about some concrete political goal like a seat at the table than some cosmic narrative about a imaginary future that's impossible to exist or about some cosmic redemption that ends in obliteratation.

This. I got bored with the tactic but I like to ask what purveyors of this narrative ("we're just appeasing them!") really want from a policy standpoint since you know we're not actually appeasing terrorists by any reasonable definition.

The end result is nothing and they haven't even considered the question. Underlying my point is that this is what they're REALLY arguing: they are just trying to whet the collective appetite for karmic, retributive violence. Just ****ing bomb 'em indiscriminately. That's what they're trying to badger people into doing, for the reasons you mentioned.

The UK on free speech...

Do you imagine those exceptions to EU free speech laws were enacted to protect Christians? Or atheists?

It's appeasement of easily offended Muslims because of their propensity for blowing stuff up if you make a cartoon of their precious prophet.

Why the religious justify some kind of special dispensation under law not to be offended because they choose to base their entire lives on evidence that, frankly, wouldn't sell me a secondhand car is beyond me. We, the rational ones, should be allowed to call them out on their crass, ludicrous beliefs.

Lampooning Jesus, the prophet and God in general should be encouraged, not subject to the sanction of law if one crosses some arbitrary line.

Believe what you like, just don't expect me to 'respect' your fatuous nonsense.

Can you explain how building the statue will give better results?
