Kicking ass is one thing, taking someones life is another.

He said he wouldn't mind if the "church" had been locked in the room instead, and of course he didn't mean that. I was just saying no one deserves that; Not even those scumbags! Remember a few years ago when they protested at a funeral here in Roanoke/Vinton? The victim was gay, so they came and had a parade. I truly can't understand what in the world they're thinking to disrespect someone that way. It's perfectly fine to express your freedom of speech, and freedom of opinion, but I feel like a funeral is not a good place to express those liberties. Why can't they just write a blog or do some sort of internet broadcast?

Unfortunately there are going to be people out there taking the same mentality that many people already do towards people of middle eastern decent. I hate that it has to be that way, but stereotypes and racial profiling are very real.

i don't believe these groups are doing any racial profiling or stereotyping... unless i'm way off, it just doesn't seem like that was the intent of the groups created...it's more of a "we need to kill people that are do shit like this"...not a 'everyone that is foreign needs to die' group...

As silly as this may sound, I think they should definitely honor him in some way or another. I don't know if his generous act (based on the story, anyway) saved anyones life, but he certainly put his students first and put his own life on the line!
