Embassy attacked in Libya

Stoked, where have you been?
I respect Sam Bacile's right to make a film condemning Islam and Muhammad, but it pisses me off that some Muslims are stupid enough to attack US embassies and kill people over it. They're basically giving credence to Bacile's belief that Islam is a cancer.
At my 4th funeral in 14 months. (Cousin 07/01/11, Mom 08/12/11, Gma 03/08/12 and Dad 09/06/12). T hey all lived here in my town and I was very close to all of them.
It happens. On a better note #3 is on their way. Life goes on. Thanks Dad!
Sorry about your dad (and the others). It's good to have you back.
I would say your best chance of that is a country where religion itself is severly hampered. Say China or Cuba.
My sincerest condolences.

My condolences.
There is little difference between the government supporting a specific religion (of any sort) and one supporting the elimination of religion. Only in neutrality toward religion is there safety.

I'd agree with that. I cannot think of a country that allows Judaism, Hinduism, Christianity...and outlaws Islam. Can you?
These attacks would have happened regardless of the governements being overthrown. Radical Muslims didn't just become hypersensitive to attacks on Muhammad recently.
True but would the respective governments have ated differently? Would the ambassador have been killed?
What pisses me off is the Libyan attack happened hours after Cairo and we didn't beef up security, demand an immediate mandatory evacuation, or whatever.. instead, 4 guys go into the embassy to pack up some items? WTF?
