Innocence of Muslims Filmmaker Arrested, Jailed

Posted by Soulskill on Friday September 28, 2012 @05:42AM from the onward-with-the-conspiracy-theories dept.

sycodon writes "Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, the man behind the film Innocence of Muslims, has been arrested and jailed in Los Angeles for probation violations. The situation is a win-win for the Obama administration, who can now appear to be punishing the man whose film sparked protests and riots around the world, but at the same time simply enforcing the law, as all evidence indeed suggests Nakoula violated the terms of his probation."

Good point. Normally they never arrest people for probation violations.

Don't forget that.
Forget about free speech. You can't hurt a muslims feelings in the USA.
If Julian Assange had only drawn a cartoon of mohammed with his pants down, he'd have been caught, extradited, and sitting in Guantanamo by now.
American priorities!

Because, once in a while, random bits of information, give us a hardon.

Clearly you see the word "illegal" everywhere, even when it hasn't been written.
It's not illegal to see the word illegal everywhere.

William of Ockham had no beard. The most likely explanation is that it was chewed off by squirrels every morning.

Last I heard, they still haven't got Hoffa.

Shouldn't be a problem. Islam is a religion of peace.

there are people looking to literally cut his fucking head off
Some men have had their fucking head cut of and sewn back on again without losing the ability to fuck. Having your regular head cut off is much worse. You are not guaranteed to survive, even if it is sewn on again immediately.

If you jail people for lying then we have to put all of Congress in jail.
You say that, but I'm sure that there are downsides as well.
