PHOENIX -  An anti-Islam rally in Phoenix on Friday will feature a Muhammad cartoon-drawing contest.

The scheduled location is outside the Islamic Community Center in north Phoenix.

I-17 and Thunderbird area.  No effect on my day as I'm never in that part of town, but might be worth avoiding (or attending if you're into that.)

No agenda in that news feed... Lets appease those who would kill over a cartoon.. How about we shame and belittle the asshole coming to kill rather than the cartoonist..



Good to see people taking a stand against this crap.   Freedom is scary folks, giving up rights to appease the specific groups of people is terrifying.

I messaged an old .mil buddy to see if he is free tomorrow. If he is down I might go but I'm not willing to go without someone I trust who is armed watching my back. Maybe this sounds paranoid but I would be surprised if violent muslims/islamists didn't show up tomorrow. If nothing else if I'm free tomorrow I'll try to drive by the area and take some cell phone camera pictures. I'm guessing the FBI will be all over this, I know they have been in this area  lot recently since the two guys who shot up the last Mohammed drawing contest were from this congregation.

If I was able to go, I would be CCW both a 1911 & HK USP .45 & a TON of mags & ammo in a pack on my back.

This would have made a perfect weekend. Cartoon contest, & if I lived through it, then the Rio Salado 2 gun event on Sunday.

Man, don't bikers know about this thing called the "Weekend"?!

I would like to attend this event, but its hard for me to get behind. Much like ISIS uses religion to "validate" their actions, I am inclined to believe that Jon is using the 1st amendment to "validate" this event.

BTW, by "validate," I mean hide behind.

Anybody else get this feeling?

Still may go and lay low from a good vantage point anyways, who knows.

After putting up with almost two decades of Islamism's and Radicals Muslims committing terrorist attacks, threatening, killing, raping, and intimidating anyone who they deem is in their way I don't feel bad for them at all and I will support a bunch of pissed off veterans standing up for what they believe in any day. I don't care if it isn't tactful. Cutting off peoples heads isn't tactful either. I think it's about time we show them that shit don't fly in the USA instead of letting them walk all over us in the name of being politically correct.

@Reservist

I agree, but why sink to their level? Do they not have the same rights we have? Freedom of religion. Just like Christians that murder people, there are bad apples in the Muslim faith. I'm torn on this issue to be perfectly honest. To assume ALL Muslims are terrorists and murderers is flat out wrong. Do all Catholics molest children? Of course not.

It's not just about sinking to their level. This is also about finally taking a stand for freedom of speech, to stand up the Left's war against Christianity. Atheist's and gay's are giving a blind eye to islam in hopes that they will destroy Christianity and the Jews and still somehow think that islam's appetite for "cleansing" will stop there. Feminists's and Socialists are also giving the blind eye to islam in their hopes to destroy capitalism and democracy but just like the atheists and the gays, they too will soon realize that the muslims will not stop there because there is no compromise, none.

This is about us saying no more, we will be heard, we will not hide, and we will stand up for ourselves.

While I generally think going out of your way to tweak any rabid followers of any ideology (Pextreme PETA, extreme Fundie Christians, Black Panther off-shoots, etc)  this my generate a lot of publicity, mostly negative, but I expect that everybody expects that.

Watching your back is a good idea because I figure tweaking a leopard who isn't leashed could find another leopard or three behind you.  If blowing up innocents is ok in somebody's version of morality, backshooting is right in there.

You think that "Let's provoke the Muzzies into violence"  should be a family event?  That's the pics we're seeing on some of the links.  Some guys have brought their families.  The general idea of more exposure of the influence or lack thereof from "moderate" Moslems on radicals definitely needs to be made.  Unfortunately the participants being shown on what little coverage I've seen, look like the locals in "Deliverance", "In The Heat of The Night" and Flim-Flam Man.

Which indicates a major failure of the propaganda front - if you don't get any real coverage outside locally until shooting starts, then it failed in it's mission of bringing the message to middle and moderate America, and if all the publicity shots are of apparently red-necks itching for a fight, that's another failure.  Instead of illustrating a threat turning into reality, it looks like a fizzle (so far) which is a good thing, because you have to know that the current administration is NOT on your side.

What do you think some of the nutballs out there want to do?  Provoke religious fanatics in to fighting and then turn it into a Phoenix version of Waco.  One shot or firecracker?  where's your fire discipline?  suddenly we'll see a massacre of women and children at a religious service, by all kinds of loonies opening fire with no targets just a building.  And who gets the blame?  the trigger happy gun carriers of the NRA and Arizona

Well at least I hope you don't want it to turn in to a free fire free for all?

What do you want to see happen? how many casualties?  how many collateral damage women and children?  what is your optimum outcome?  Does anybody have the big picture?  is anybody watching out for a suicide car or truck bomber coming from an unexpected direction.  If they have over the top radicals looking to become martyrs, somebody needs to be watching all around.  Is anybody?  If a State Patrol/Highway Patrol helo spots a suspicious vehicle speeding in what happens?  In Iraq, almost everybody knows what happens and the rules of engagement.  Are they the same in downtown Phoenix?

I don't think this guy is looking to tweak the Muslim community.  I think he's trying to take a stand against the apologist bullshit that is going on with government and media in relation to Christianity, American values and rights, and Islam right now......and if they happen to tweak some radicals, oh well.  Islam calls for death, dismemberment, and warfare against non-Muslims.  FACT.  We have a right to make fun of any religion we want....FACT.   We have a right to defend ourselves and our rights with arms.....FACT.  If some Muslims choose to get violent over their protest and exercising their First Amendment rights....the real problem is with the Muslims who are willing to spill blood over a non-violent insult.  FACT.  

That said, there are significant numbers of Muslims who hold an interpretation of Islam that is not violent, perhaps even a majority.  But the organizer comes off as really just an angry Muslim hater.  He really, really blew it in managing the message.  Even the local media spun this as a simple Islamophobic rant put on by simpleton haters and designed to give them a chance to blow away some Muslims.

So it's either trolling or trying to be a political crusader here in the AZHTF, got it.

Zero arrests, zero incident reports today. Both sides were peaceful asides from a few raised voices. You know what that means?

Go back to CA and stay in your lane.

Or we can all cower in fear of what "might' happen.
The time has passed for people to protest not only our erosion of rights as dictated by the main stream media, but also to take back the pride in our country.
Provocation is the not the main point, although a barb at those that would control through terrorist tactics and hate is never missplaced.  
Rather, it's about not allowing the seeds of fear and trepidation to overcome our God given right to protest and correct what is wrong.

Sit in your living room and bemoan the loss of your freedom rather than stand up and say no.
Cower as the media dictates our terms of surrender.
Or show that we are united, we will stand strong against those that would enslave through fear, and that their terror will not win out against us.

From 9/11 till now, it's gone from let's roll, to let's roll over.

It is nice to live in a free state where the people have the right to express their views . Phoenix showed the world our citizens have true freedom of speech and did it in a orderly non violent way . This sets an example for the rest of the country . Arizona is without a doubt the best state for personal freedom in America today .

The fact that NOTHING violent happened is the most important part.  The libs are going crazy calling the protestors bigots and all that shit.  They are just exposing themselves as the oppressive ones.  All the protestors did was voice their views, while being ready to defend their views if anyone attempted to oppress that display.  That's a big win in the big picture.

Those threats should have been anticipated.

This whole stunt was billed as a "Stand your ground" demonstration. Selling your house and going into hiding doesn't really fit the bill.

you would have to be stupid to do something like this and not have contingencies in place for the inevitable backlash.

alpha you're a smart man, that's exactly what this was in my eyes, a stunt. If you have a family to protect how smart is it to place them in unneeded danger?

Maybe I'm not seeing it, but what rights were being violated, or in danger of being violated, that prompted this event?
What was the goal of the event?

The only conclusion I can come to on my own is that people want to send a message to the worshipers at that mosque that we are watching you and you better not produce any more violent extremist's. Which I can kind of understand.

For me this doesn't pass the three S test:
Are stupid people involved? Possibly
Is it a stupid thing? Possibly
Is it in a stupid place? Possibly

Avoidance, deterrence and deescalation; how would a jury see it?

The only conclusion I can come to on my own is that people want to send a message to the worshipers at that mosque that we are watching you and you better not produce any more violent extremist's. Which I can kind of understand.

For me this doesn't pass the three S test:
Are stupid people involved? Possibly
Is it a stupid thing? Possibly
Is it in a stupid place? Possibly

Avoidance, deterrence and deescalation; how would a jury see it?



shh, thinking it was a stunt offends apparently real Arizonans.  Stating it might be stupid really causes them to pee their knickers
