When stupidity gets other people killed

[the_archfiend]

Some sort of unpleasantly worded "congratulations" needs to go out to publicity-seeking freak "Reverend" Terry Jones; not only did he and fellow half-wit Sam Bacile suceed in riling up a hornet's nest of red meat-seeking religious fanatics (different religion, same lack of anything resembling thought or self-reflection on their actions), but he managed to get a US Ambassador and three of other American citizens killed in the process. 

And his response? Pretty much what you'd expect from such a thorough pantload:

"When we do our activities, when we raise our awareness of the radical element of Islam, we are posing those people absolutely no danger," We are, perhaps, insulting some people, but just because you are insulted, it gives you no right to break into someone's house, go into his yard, kill him and destroy his property. So we should by no means excuse their activities."

Okay. Let's see, now: you and Bacile intentionally publicized a "movie" that's little more than an attempt to piss off an entire religion and incite certain extremists found in that religion to violence in order to prove the bizarre point that you could actually do it in the first place.

Good going on that, fuckhead. Mission accomplished. Problem is, you actually got people killed, and the possibility remains that more are to follow if any other nuts get lucky like they did in Benghazi with the US Consulate.

I'm sure that a sorry waste of skin like Jones - who was headed for well-deserved obscurity after his previous threat to publically burn copies of the Koran (in order to - surprise, surprise! - incite people to violence in order to prove that they're violent) is getting all of this free publicity for his Florida "ministry". But considering that this is same creep who also had his followers hang an effigy of Barack Obama (for all the usual bullshit reasons, as you might guess) in front of their Gainesville, Florida headquarters in July without a trace of irony in a region where racially motivated lynchings were once commonplace, what'd you expect from him? Forethought, perhaps?
