Now China Too!

Seemed like if anyone told the truth about Mohammad and Islam the Muslims would riot, demand apologies, sue and do anything else to draw attention. This was all for the purpose of preventing people from questioning the validity of Mohammad's claim to the prophetic mantle. Christians get it all the time and when was the last time there was a violent riot, complete with arson, death and threats of more violence, instigated by offended Christians because someone denied that Jesus was the Son of God or called the Bible a book of myths? Or someone made an offensive bit of "art" insulting Christian icons. We rarely get violent. But we're the bad guys.

Now China too does not wish to be questioned. Jack Cafferty made some truthful remarks about China's products on CNN and now CNN is being sued for the tune of one dollar per person in China. (In the unlikely event that China wins this, I wonder where the money would go.) The whole point of the lawsuits (both Islamic and Chinese) is to create legal hassles for those who ask embarrassing questions, merely to keep the questions from being asked.

Could you imagine how many lawsuits there would be if we decided to sue everyone whose words defamed America? We'd all be rich and the rest of the world would have nothing. Or so it seems.

Actually we'd all be rich if we sued CNN every time it defamed America.

Maybe we should try it.
