We are much more enlightened in the West. We believe in the freedom of speech. Those who are accused of blasphemy aren’t gunned down in cold blood (although they certainly tried to get us in Garland, Texas on May 3, 2015). They’re just smeared as racist, bigoted Islamophobes, and shunned by all decent people.
Note also that Faheem said he had “no remorse over killing the principal.” Of course he has no remorse. He thinks he has performed a righteous act, for which Allah will reward him.
“KP student kills college principal over ‘blasphemy’, short attendance,” Pakistan Today, January 22, 2018:
CHARSADDA: A grade 12 student, Faheem, of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Islamia College in Shabqadar–a private institution– has gunned down the principal of the college, Sareer, on the pretext of ‘blasphemy’.
Police said that the student got disgruntled after the principal had expressed his anger at Faheem over his absence from college for three days due to latter’s reported participation in Faizabad sit-in.
The city police said that the accused fired six bullets at principal Sareer. As a result of firing, the principal was critically injured and rushed to a hospital where he succumbed to his wounds. According to initial reports shared on social media, the student said he had “no remorse over killing the principal”….
In November, daily life in the capital had been paralysed for at least three weeks due to the protest of an alliance of religious parties, including the Tehreek-e-Khatm-e-Nabuwwat, Tehreek Labaik Ya Rasool Allah (TLY) and Sunni Tehreek Pakistan (ST), calling for the sacking of Law Minister Zahid Hamid and strict action against those behind the amendment to the Khatam-e-Nabuwwat clause ─ which had earlier been deemed a “clerical error” and subsequently rectified.
The protest was finally ended when the government had succumbed to the demands of the violent protesters and had agreed to remove then law minister Zahid Hamid.

‘Those who are accused of blasphemy aren’t gunned down in cold blood….. They’re just smeared as racist, bigoted Islamophobes, and shunned by all decent people.’
I’ve got to disagree with you there, Mr. Spencer. Anyone who is so sheep-like and easily manipulated by these ‘blasphemy’ merchants lacks the necessary personal integrity to be a ‘decent person’.

I agree, needs edit:
” They’re just smeared as racist, bigoted Islamophobes, and shunned by ‘so-called’ decent people who want to flood the country with hundreds of thousands of jihadis.

Robert Spencer was talking about perception. Many are too scared to evern read what he has to say, lest they not be considered decent people.
Jayell says
So, whose definition of a ‘decent person’ then? The ‘decency’ of the intellectually-challenged religious/political bigot with an ego and a mouth several sizes too large? This is the mentality of the Nuremburg rallies where the ‘decent’ citizens would jump to the orders of the strutting charlatans up on the podium, like toxic sheep without the integrity to do anything else except become pathetic carbon-copies of their puppet-masters. The only difference here is that this lot haven’t got round to screaming ‘Sieg Heil’ on cue.

“Anyone who is so sheep-like and easily manipulated by these ‘blasphemy’ merchants lacks the necessary personal integrity to be a ‘decent person’.”
Yes, yes, yes.
Anyone who relies on others to do their thinking for them, or blindly follows some ‘learned leader’, is devoid of personal integrity, or hopelessly ignorant. Good intentions and niceness are not enough in a dangerous world.
Thomas Kimball says
These animals are incapable of critical thinking! The fact that they even believe this insane religion/government system proves it! So let’s hear all the B.S. about Christendom and how evil the crusades were when we kicked them the hell out of western Europe the first time, because none of it compares with these interbred knuckle dragging morons and their satanic religion! A religion that subjugates women and carves up their genitals without the aid of anesthetics or sanitation! But what can you expect from a bunch of lunatics that marry mine year olds and screws goats or cows and it’s appropriate “as long as you kill it afterwards or sell it to the next village”!
J D S says
Just another of thousands and thousands of reasons to show that Islam should not share with other religions the right to be called a religion at all. WAKE UP WORLD.

When are we finally going to get our DRACONIAN MEASURES??
Richard says
Yes, Mr. Spenser, and they are also poisoned. You are regarded as the citizens of Troy regarded the prophetess Casandra when she warned: “Beware of Greeks bearing gifts!” We have broken down our gates to bring the Trojan horse into our cities. Almost everything we were raised to believe was right now is wrong. Almost everything we were raised to believe was wrong is now right. If you change to adopt the new ways, you become schizophrenic. If, on the other hand, you are a white, heterosexual, Christian male, you are now regarded as the scum of the earth and do not deserve to live. One is reminded of Admiral Yamamoto’s speech before his execution: “The world has become a hateful place. There never was a better time for me to die.”
mortimer says
There are actually 14 passages in the Koran refer to apostasy, as well as hadiths and canonical commentaries approving death for apostates. Sharia law prescribes death.
– According to Baidhawi’s commentary, Sura 4: 88-89 means: “Whosoever turns back from his belief, openly or secretly, take him and kill him wheresoever ye find him, like any other infidel. Separate yourself from him altogether. Do not accept intercession in his regard.”
– A hadith about Mohammed’s followers used as a basis of Sharia, tells of some atheists who were brought to “’Ali and he burnt them. The news of this reached Ibn Abbas who said: ‘If I had been in his place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah’s Apostate forbade it . . . I would have killed them according to the statement of Allah’s Apostate, ‘Whoever changed his [Islamic] religion, then kill him’.”
– A hadith in which Mohammed commands the killing of apostates, and promises eternal rewards for doing so: “When I relate to you the words of Mohammed, by Allah, I would rather die than bear false witness to his teachings. However, if I should say something unrelated to the prophet, then it might very well be a lie so that I might deceive my enemy. Without question, I heard Mohammed say, “In the final days before Redemption there will emerge groups of foolish youths who will say all the right things but their faith will go no further than their mouths and will flee from their religion like an arrow. So, kill the apostates wherever you find them, because whoever does so will be rewarded on Judgment Day.” -Sahih Bukhari 9,84,64
– Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the most renowned Muslim cleric of Egypt stated:
“The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates must be punished, yet they differ as to determining the kind of punishment to be inflicted upon them. The majority of them, including the four main schools of jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi’i, and Hanbali) as well as the other four schools of jurisprudence (the four Shiite schools of Az-Zaidiyyah, Al-Ithna-‘ashriyyah, Al-Ja’fariyyah, and Az-Zaheriyyah) agree that apostates must be executed.”
gravenimage says
Of course, it is highly unlikely that this school principal is actually an apostate in the way we would mean it. But just his taking issue with this pious Muslim cutting school got him the death penalty for it.
boakai ngombu says
i agree, gravenimage. he was master in a private school, which was likely charged with maintaining certain standards.
Faheem, acted like an antifa child; his standards differed from those of the master.
the master made an error in proposing that intellectual discipline and attentiveness was more important than street demonstrations with the mob. (said standards being necessary to maintain should the child immigrate purposely to insinuate SHARIA into a culture and thereby expand the caliphate).
in any event, the allah good of islam (unknowable; the best of all deceivers) gets credit for the bloodletting and grief /// ah Pakistan, a dung heap and garbage dump. the allah god loves the stench and misery
Jaladhi says
This is the example of “good” Muslims that the West is so fond of!! Quran and Mo’s diktats rot the brains of all Muslims so that they cannot differentiate between good and evil. In fact their definitions of good and evil are totally reverse of those of normal human beings! You see the results worldwide!!
LeftisruiningCanada says
“Police said that the student got disgruntled after the principal had expressed his anger at Faheem over his absence from college for three days due to latter’s reported participation in Faizabad sit-in.”
Like mohammad, muslims like this little runt think that anyone who doesn’t agree with them is insulting God.
They are they’re own idols.
Thomas Kimball says
He just needs a little sensitivity training on an out patient basis of course ! He’s young we can still save him! Who cares about the family of the principal,the Muslim is the victim here! “He’s been displaced,his country has been bombed by blue eyed devils “although i believe Obamas eyes were brown. And if you believe any of this crap you are a certifiable moron and deserve everything you get! You will never stop this kind of crap until you make the punishment fit the crime and show these a-holes we mean business! We need to accept the fact that there stupid religion tells them to kill and rape anybody “or any animal as a matter of fact”that doesn’t believe the insanity that they do! Stacking Muslim murderers up in a prison won’t work because eventually you will have a large population of these animals and the situation will be impossible to police. So you execute them or if you don’t have the balls for that you at least get them the hell out of your country!
MFritz says
Aren’t BLM and Antifa only one step away from the very same kind of behaviour?

Pakistan: Student charges principal with “blasphemy,” guns him down
Police said that the student got disgruntled after the principal had expressed his anger at Faheem over his absence from college for three days due to latter’s reported participation in Faizabad sit-in.
……………………….
So–this Muslim considered it “blasphemy” that his principal would get annoyed with his playing hooky over a clerical error.
God, I hate Islam.

He’s in fudgepakistan, they will probably pin a metal on him and give him the goat of his choice! Life Is Good!
Westman says
Where are the nuances? We keep seeing this pattern of fully switched-on predators in response to minor “infractions” that have little real meaning – like a drunk father who comes home and beats his baby because it cried, or, beats the wife because he doesn’t like the dinner menu.
It seems to me that in addition to a bad ideology, there is also some brain evolution at work, perhaps by social conditioning, epigenetic evolution, and cousin marriage. The sudden switched-on rage seen in demonstrations viewed in ME countries and the prevalence of “honor” killings among the genetically equivalent Muslims and Hindus in India, point to more than ideology as a factor.
The strangest phenomenon is the lack of real brotherhood among Muslim strangers and the quickness that violence will set upon anyone not seen in compliance to dogma. The Muslim Brotherhood is an oxymoron, more like a group of Muslim hoods, where the real “brotherhood” is loyalty to the concept of “gang” and not to each other. That would tend to put the clerics in charge to manipulate the umma for their own designs and in a position to dictate what Allah wants at the moment. Fatwas?
When Blacks marched for Civil Rights in the late 60’s, there was a non-violent true brotherhood – to each other – that gave it the power to make real change. That is sorely lacking in today’s Antifa and BLM, movements which express physical power and little love.
Thomas Kimball says
Well said!
Px Fragonard says
We’re not that far. Many neo-Marxists have advocated murder for the sin of ideological impurity. It isn’t literally blasphemy but some of these atheists consider themselves gods and their ideas unquestionable. They have also said violence must be met with violence and since they call speech violence, we’re a lot closer to this than it seems. The professor who tried to break a man’s skull at a rally with a bike lock is only different from this man by a matter of degrees.
