Am I the only one who just wants to beat this woman in the face with a baseball bat?

[behemoth]

Warbreak, you're not alone.

I'd give her the boot.

How many times do YOU in particular must be reminded to not cuss here? It's not as if YOU are an AO noob, so I must presume this was deliberate. In as much, you get a one week ban. Army

but freedom of speach is unlimited :P

unless of course you bash bush on myspace.

[BeaverEater]

Freedom of speech is no where near unlimited by any means.

No it really isn't. And that girl is a freaking loser. At 14 she obviously doesn't know the extent of what's going on in the world. Yet she feels she is entitled to speak out about it. She's so ignorant sounding, I just can't stand kids like that.

[Hexis]

I would be apologetic for an accident like that, but she might not be. She might think that she didn't intend to do wrong, so she has nothing to be sorry for. It depends on her upbrining... I highly doubt that she would have assisted terrorists willingly.

You should try reading:

"The end of my career truly is like a sword in my side," Stewart said at her sentencing. "Permit me to live out the rest of my life productively, lovingly, righteously."

The way I read that, she is apologetic. "a sword in my side" is not: "screw you, 1st amendment byotch!".

I'm not even saying I agree with her choices (any of them), but common now, things are not black or white, it's all a shade of gray.

No one deserves death threats (even sarcastic ones) for being duped by a criminal.

[BeaverEater]

But even if she was duped, she should have known better than to communicate with terrorists in an organization. Considering she is probably highly educated, she should have had some commen sense with these issues especially at this point in time. If not the dealth penalty, atleast more that the 2 1/2 years she had gotten. And at this point of time her apology came only after the sentence.

[Hexis]

Often higher education comes at the expense of common sense.

By duped I ment fooled. Perhaps that was unclear. Fooled means just that, she didn't know what she was doing.

More time in jail than what she recieved would have have been a death sentance. Are you really adovacting a death penalty for anyone that has been fooled into assisting a terrorist in some way?

It's pretty easy to proclaim soone should die in a random Internet forum. I have never had to do so in real life (and truly hope I never will). I suspect that the reality of doing so would be much more difficult.

[warbeak2099]

She's lamenting that he career is over. Not that she did something wrong. Never once did she say she was sorry for the crime she comitted. In fact, she rallied a group of supporters who tried to say that she didn't do anything wrong.

Heck, I want her dead just for having to look at her nasty face pictured on that news link!

lol...i was just going to say, i think she already got hit by a bat

good point :rofl:

[BeaverEater]

frankly its fine to make assumptions on either side of the fence because none of us know the truth, just what the media is saying. She could of full knowingly helped the terrorists, or been fooled. We will probably never know, and most of us really wont care after a week or two.

From an interview with mzzzz Stewart; "...a strange amalgam of old-line things and new-line things. I don't have any problem with Mao or Stalin or the Vietnamese leaders or certainly Fidel locking up people they see as dangerous. Because so often, dissidence has been used by the greater powers to undermine a people's revolution. The CIA pays a thousand people and cuts them loose, and they will undermine any revolution in the name of freedom of speech."

So it's OK for sweet loving murderous dictators to put innocent people in jail, but it's not OK for the USA to jail those that want to do us harm. The "lady" is a whack job.

Recall, if you may, that the "blind Sheik" was the mastermind behind the '93 WTC bombing, which is part of what he was on trial for in the first place. The court, and the jail he was being held in, put in place a communications blackout on him, effectively stopping him from conducting futher mayhem by proxy. mizzzz Stewart illegally bypassed this order, and took communique from him to his followers in Egypt. He called for the end of a cease fire with Egypt, which then began the latest bombings and killings in Egypt...you do remember the tourist hotel that was blown up, killing many? That was his terror cell. mizzzz Stewart is complicit in these acts.

That is what she was convicted of.

mizzz Stewart is a life-long Stalinist and follower of Mao, Pol-Pot, Ho-Chi Minh, Castro etc. She is hardly innocent of being a dupe. She has in the past, defended the Black Panthers among other American terrorists. She once told The Washington Post that "my own political sense tells me the only hope for change in Egypt is the fundamentalist movement." During their terrorist campaign, Al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya (the blind sheik's group) murdered more than a thousand people. (from Middle East Quarterly)

Treason ends at the muzzle.
