#1 "Whoever put this up has no common sense whatsoever. "By putting it next to a mosque, it effectively paints the Muslim community as a bunch of terrorists."

Sorry jerky, but your actions in 1. assuming that the billboard is aimed at you and 2. all but admitting that Osama = Muslims worldwide, YOU are doing yourself a disservice and YOU are the one drawing attention to the Muslim community as a "bunch of terrorists".

#2 "By putting it next to a mosque, it effectively paints the Muslim community as a bunch of terrorists.
You could always try and publically condemn the violent actions and murderous tendencies of your Islamist brothers against civilization, and then perhaps people wouldn't associate all Muslims with terrorist.
You've brought this shit on yourselves by your silence.

#4 Osama = terrorist mastermind of the WTC massacre = bad. Among people of good will, there should be no slight perceived from this billboard.

Now if there were a picture of the community's mosque with GO GET 'EM in big letters, they might have a point.

Makes ya wonder about the good will part...

#5 When you guys start looking at a picture of Osama with the words "Go Get 'Em" and say, "F*ck Yeah! Let's go get 'em!", then I might have some interest in what does or does not offend you. Until then, ESAD.

#6 Is the game out yet? Might be worth a try.

As for the whiners -- when Muslims start acting like they're not on Osama's side, then I'll stop suspecting they're on Osama's side.

#8 More usless whinging for the satanic death cult. Piss off and grow up.

#9 If the Muslims get all out of joint, and start violent acts, the billboard people can always add an arrow to the sign, for a slight additional fee. Always playing the victim. They better pray to Allan that no terrorist acts are committed in the area, or they WILL, rightly or wrongly be the targets of wrath. If they have it together the Muslims would be proactive in condemning terrorism and people like Binny, but I assume too much.

#11 As long as the west caves whenever they play the victim card they will continue to play the victim card. Whatever works. I'll reserve my revulsion for the company that I suspect will pull the sign before this deluge of victimhood.
