conference stand with the prophet conference in support of sharia restrictions. now, the bodies weren t even in the ground and american muslim groups were holding a conference in support of the ideology behind the slaughter? wouldn t that have been the time for american muslim groups to stand for freedom of speech? but they don t believe in it as it relates to their religion. so you have this draw the prophet contest in the same spot, in the same room, in the same venue, we had a conference standing for freedom of speech. but by having a contest where you know there will be provocati provocation, where they in drawing muhammad are not only insulting their prophet but is blasphemy, considered blasphemy, punishable by death, were you worried that anybody there might be hurt? well, listen, i ve been having conferences like this for years. i ve always had to have protections because of death threats. so this was protected like all of our conferences are. but i am not a muslim
prophet conference supporting the sharia restrictions against free speech supporting the ideology behind the hebdo jihadists. am i interpreting wrong? you will not be dictated to what you can and cannot say, what you re not going to allow after the danish cartoon incident charlie hebdo incident you re saying, no this is america. yes. and we are not going to give into this political correctness or this demand that we can t draw a cartoon? bingo. we are not going to abridge our freedom so as not to offend savages. why is a cartoon let me go to brandon darby coughvering the event. tell us from your perspective how you perceive the events and what you saw go down. sean thanks for having me on on. my entire team three of my team members were in the event. i covered the outside. i decided to cover the protests outside but it was very strange
wipe israel off the map, and you re standing up for the idea. yes. of? ofreedom of speech. look this this event how did this event come about? back after the charlie hebdo murders, you remember the jihad murders. yes, of course. these cartoonists were slain over a cartoon. think about that. i will hold a thousand exhibits to stand in solidarity with the charlie hebdo editorial staff. in the wake of that jihad slaughter, a number of muslim groups held a stand with the prophet conference supporting the sharia restrictions against free speech supporting the ideology behind the hebdo jihadists. am i interpreting wrong? you will not be dictated to what you can and cannot say, what you re not going to allow after the danish cartoon incident charlie hebdo incident you re saying, no this is america. yes. and we are not going to give into this political correctness
religion. political cartoons is political opinion. when you seek to impose the sharia restrictions every islam on free speech, that s a political movement. martha: they are saying that s not how we do things here. we want to be a cut above r above that behavior. you bring up political cartoons, the charlie hebdo comparison has been made. we don t organize contests. we just do our work. we comment on the news. when muhammad jumped out in the news we draw him out. martha: they are saying whatever is going on in the world we make a political comment. we are not particularly aimed they have done cartoons that
