Re: Weird
Ah, I would question the responders in this case seriously. The dynamics are quite different, because within a society where they should be aware of the legal consequences of doing such a thing let alone the social consequences then the woman should have been protected until brought to court. In this case insult could not be a natural conclusion for the act of the woman and that act of extrajudicially even harming her slightly is heinous and condemnable.
Burning a Qur’an requires an investigation, making mock imagery of the holy prophet (SAW) is however clear in its intent, even then, injury of mockery only really tends to result in problems when and by a system that is in power or elements within a system that allows such a thing to proliferate. Some people would say she had it coming, in a similar way to how a black man would punch a white man should he shout the n word in his territory in the US, may be even get stabbed for saying it. I’m not saying any of this is right … I was merely arguing how best to prevent violence and that is to avoid doing acts that will harm the sentiments of others, but ultimately there is another side of the spectrum too as you have stated … And that is people are hyper-sensitive and bloodthirsty and require little cause to act out what they want to do anyway. Yes, in those cases I would condemn the reactors and hold them more accountable.
