This whole story just annoys me so very, very much.
You know who is to blame for the violence? The reporter who decided this was a worthy news story - because they didn't do it because it was something the world needed to know. He or she reported on it because it was sensationalistic and sure to cause controversy.
And then the other news sources who decided to pick it up and make it into a big deal are also to blame.
All all this did was give a voice to someone who has nothing of worth to say, and now he's basically saying he'll go through with it until they move the 'mosque'.
Which, now that I think about it, makes much of this the fault of the fear-mongers who made the whole 'mosque' thing a Big Bloody Deal in the first place.
