 I live in the Richland school district and I think this is ridiculous. How hypocritical we are to cancel a play because the characters are Muslim. That's a real good way to teach our kids not to hate. I love Johnstown, but it is a backward town with a lot of backward, bigoted people who are stuck in the past. You know, there was a terrorist bombing in Oklahoma City too, maybe they shouldn't do that play either. And we better blacklist Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat too because it's set in the Middle East. Sad.

I don't know what you are talking about.

 This country is becoming quite petty and self-righteous.

Like the moonbats.

 I am offended that you used Arabic numerals in writing IX/XI. How insensitive of you! Which side are you on?

When did Arab and Islam become the same thing? Yes, Islam comes from Arabs, but there are many non-Muslim Arabs.

 Are you willing to denounce all attacks by radical Christians?

Has there have been a radical Christian who committed terrorism?

 You do realize how ridiculous you are being, right? How would you feel if they canceled Christmas as a Federal Holiday with the additional comment, "if you are offended, you need to publicly denounce those lunatics who bomb abortion clinics"? It is the truly small minded who cannot separate the millions of Muslims in this world from the lunatic fringe who practice radical Islam.

Another leftist moron.

 As soon as Christians apologize for killing 6 million Jews, the Muslims should get right on their apology for killing 3000 Americans.

Nazis were not Christians. What a moron!

That's it.     I'm putting a BIG cross in my yard for Christmas. 

If I offend any Muslims in my hood, OH WELL.

You pull plays where Christians aren't portrayed, and they're not flying planes into buildings.

That's completely different. Why? Shut up that's why. [/DUmp]
