Steve:

Hard not to read it for it was: an especially savage form of fundamentalist fascism. Given the violence of the murder -- Mr. Van Gogh was shot several times by his Muslim assassin, pleaded for his mercy as the killer calmly stood over him, was stabbed in the chest and then had his throat slit and his head nearly cut off -- it almost seems inhumane to say that this was also a "statement in opposition to free speech." Van Gogh was killed for the terrible crime of making a movie that illustrated the forms of Islamicist oppression of women.

An artist is brutally murdered for making a film about the oppression of women and our most notorious defenders of free speech on the artistic Hollywood left have nothing to say? Or have I missed the outrage?

Too bad it wasn't Mike Moore.

It would take a chainsaw to cut through all that fat around Moore's neck.

Finstone, you are sick, whoops, that goes without saying, neocon.
Theo's murder was something I don't wish on anybody.

Yep, and the lib's block the advancement of Clarence Thomas, Condi Rice, . . . and claim to be advocates for the social advancment of minorities and women.

The fact is; the liberal establishment wants to keep these group down, to be used, for future liberal political-cause parades.

Coming from you, that is a compliment... loser...that also goes without saying

Guys like Michael Moore encourage and excuse murderous terrorists like this...it would certainly be ironic if it happened to them instead of an innocent guy like this... IMHO, it couldn't happen to a more appropriate guy than Moore.
