    Okay buddy 👍 if you’re incapable of thinking just say so.

    There’s plenty wrong with America, but as someone who doesn’t take part in any religion, I appreciate and demand the right to be able to protest or otherwise denounce religions that are morally reprehensible. Islam is one of those, some sects of Christianity as well - namely Mormonism which is functionally the Islam of Christianity lol.

    Part of why America has become the way it is, is due to the rampant hesitancy at opposing the fascist/authoritarian nature of religions such as Christianity. Seems America will become a Christian hellscape, France appears to be going down the Islamic hellscape.

    Doesn’t change my point that freedom of speech/protest is important to resist the controlling nature of the religious disease.

      You can protest in France, they kind of invented it.

      You can protest Islam in France too.

      You aren’t doing yourself any favours here

            Well considering it wasn’t put on any other person’s property and just “near” or “outside”, your attempt at a gotcha falls flat here.

              I’ll just burn this cross “near” someone’s property. Same place every night. Me and my buds love to burn all these crosses “not on anyone’s property”. Free speech I guess

                Well if ya do it in white robes, you’d likely be profiled as a terrorist member org member (kkk), but if ya did it near a church in plain clothes, it would definitely be free speech.

                Idk why you keep switching details in your weird little scenarios as if they won’t make a difference and I won’t notice. You’re arguing in bad faith.
