@rezaaslan Depends. Are the bikers black?

@rezaaslan Has there ever been an idea conceived more by drunk white people at a dive bar than this one is?

@rezaaslan Yes, I think they would.

@rezaaslan @elektrotal Long answer: no.

@rezaaslan that's rhetorical right?

@rezaaslan yes, there would be a massive media outcry over this heinous act of antisemitism

@rezaaslan For all of the talk about "free speech" when is free speech in fact little more than veiled threat?

@rezaaslan Freedom of speech (hate speech) is only allowed if it is islamophobic in nature!

@rezaaslan Of course they would just like they are ignoring the Christian terrorist if he we're Muslim wall to wall

@rezaaslan @LibyaLiberty I think it would be reported TBH

@rezaaslan or a church full of Christians? The media would go ballistic and cry hate and persecution. Islamophobia has been the status quo.

@rezaaslan that's a fair question, so naturally no one in front of a three letter network's camera is going to ask it.

@rezaaslan @LibyaLiberty They'd care if the bikers were terrorizing a Baptist church.

@rezaaslan If Jews were running around blowing themselves up to silence free speech, probably not.

@rezaaslan lol at the people missing Reza's point, "Yes, they would care." Um, for lack of a better word...DUH. That is what he is saying.

@rezaaslan on July 4th there is a planned Neo-Nazi rally in Golders Green, a Jewish community. It's been allowed because of "free speech".
