Right, and Richard Dawkins expressed some skepticism about the kid’s intent as well. I share that skepticism. He told someone “I told you I’d be famous on the Internet one day”–I think the whole idea was to make a deniable bomblike thing, get in trouble for it, and then take to social media to gin up a big sympathy/protest type deal. Not so sure he intended to get arrested, or to get quite THAT famous.

Anna has clearly just started telling Cenk what he wants to hear. She didn’t think any of this until he started ranting about it.
Such a disappointment from someone who seemed so principled. Guess she’s just trying to hang onto her job cos Cenk’s clearly got a screw loose on this issue.

Really, special treatment is suddenly problematic ?!
Exclusivity of one over another bothers your tender sensibilities ?!
How inconsiderate of Young Turks to focus their optics, so selectively, on neocon-hasbara atheists.
Is this kid religious, a devoted Muslim, and if so isn’t he stupid ?

Hm, so anti-Muslim hate crimes and support for treating Muslims differently than non-Muslims aren’t Islamophobia? Then what are they? And many people who complain about New Atheism are atheists themselves. What does that have to do with religion in schools?

Some religious people (like I said I don’t agree with TYT comments) who are hateful against Muslims regardless of what Bill Maher (who some if not most religious ppl hate) said and run with it saying even Liberal Atheist knows Muslims knows they are the worst.

I Don’t agree with Cenk on this but I believe this is what he’s referencing to
