35. Interesting how you mix images of extreme violence and suffering
with images of women wearing the clothes they choose and acting the ways they choose (a woman in a bathing costume- the horror!!!), as if they're somehow equally offensive.

But any Muslim (or anyone else) who believes such images alone represent American values is as much of an ignorant, narrow minded bigot as any American who believes Islamic values are best represented by images of people jumping out the twin towers on 9/11, or embassies being torched over a cartoon.

You can't have it both ways.
