i 'm tired of fatwas,nobody should have to go into hiding for saying something about islam,but the fear of having a fatwah put on you is a sickening, scary feeling, thats the point isnt it, if we cant find you to kill you we know we are scaring the ... t out of you, these threats and mind games should have severe penalties internationally wherever they come from, we have let the fear of a fatwah erode our sense of security and our behaviors so much i'm tired of us playing defense in our united states,our government should take care of this problem and the news should report on this, i'm ashamed to say i have altered some things in my life because of fear of backlash from radical muslims, i wanted to put the song Jerusalem, by matisyahu on my phone but was afraid when i was out that the wrong person might hear it, i kinow pathetic,happen to any of you? President Obama show us you are on our side and speak out strongly that we will not accept this kind of psychological bullying anymore and give strong support and come to the aid of anyone who is being threatened in such a manner,
