The PC left in America often wants to portray Christians as intolerant, bigoted, racist, homophobes who want to censor everybody who doesn't agree with their views. They often try to show Timothy McVeigh as an example of Christian fanaticism, wrongly, because McVeigh was an avowed atheist (not unlike a lot of the PC left). They'll also cite the nuts from the Westboro Baptist Church, because, yea, they're so popular with us. They say we're anti-free speech because we get mad when our religious figures, i.e our Lord and Savior, is shown in various body fluids-we're so sensitive. We're homophobes and somehow we condoned what happened to Matthew Shepard. However, there really is a group tailor-made for the PC left to focus its ire, but we hear ne'er a peep from them.
Let me introduce you to Islam. You want a real group opposed to free speech, what about Muslims in Denmark, and everywhere else in Europe, setting cars , buildings, etc. on fire because of some cartoons about their pedophile prophet Mohammed (his favorite wife was a 9 year old girl)?

Good grief, a teacher gets put in jail in Sudan because her 1st grade class named a teddy bear Mohammed and they want to have her killed.

Muslim women accuse a Christian woman of blasphemy because the water she brought them was defiled (they actually believe this about "infidels"). Now she is in a Pakistani jail, sentenced to death.

Religious tolerance, right? When they aren't busy killing Christians they blow up 2000 year old Buddhist shrines.

Oh, don't worry they eat their own too. Women can be hanged, or stoned. You can google this and find numerous graphic depictions. Women may be stoned for adultery, as a matter of hearsay, or honor of family, like a woman refusing to wear the hijab, coming home late, and Allah forbid-leaving Islam. The next site is graphic.

If a woman is unfortunate enough to be raped, Islam understands that right? Look at this from Al Jazeera, no less;

...and here, a Muslim girl was gang raped, given 200 lashes then sentenced to 6 months in jail. Her violators were given between 1-5 years in jail. And to supposedly curb Islamic girls' sexual desires, there is genital mutilation;

And homosexuals? Well, of course there are no homosexuals in Iran, according to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

All of these are bulwark issues of the PC left, womens' rights, free speech, gay rights, anti-death penalty. Yet, they say nothing about Islam. Why? I think we all know why. The PC left really aren't courageous at all-dissent and disobedience is one thing in America-going after Christians is safe. Speaking out against Islam puts a target on your back. The final point, the PC left sell out the things they say they care most about and actually ally with and defend Islam. Why? It's the old maxim, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
