What happened to freedom of speech for the majority? Why is it that only minorities can say they are offended about something? For way too long now, we have been pushed around by groups, religious and non, that only serve a few. And now some Muslims are offended that Trijicon scopes have bible passages inscribed on them.
At Christmastime, CHRISTMAS TIME, the time we celebrate Christ, the reason for the season, we can't put out a Nativity for fear of offending 3 people in a neighborhood of 30 who don't want to look at it. If I'm not putting it in your yard, then go about your own business! People can be so self righteous, and yet I certainly don't see them offering to work Christmas day to keep banks, DMV's and other businesses open even though they don't want to acknowledge the day! Such hypocrites! I work with a Muslim who would not participate in any of the Christmas activities we set up at work, and that is fine. I have no problem with that. But I certainly didn't see him offering to work on Friday, Dec 25th. He was quick to take the day off with the rest of the Christians. And believe me, if he would have offered to work, the owner of the company would have let him in a heart beat!
It's as if people pick and choose what to believe in for that particular moment, which is determined by what fits them best at that time. The hypocrisy is astounding.
And now some Muslims in the military are offended about the bible inscription on the scopes, but oddly enough, aren't offended by what the scopes are used for! Talk about disjointed. It's okay that they're using scopes to help them increase their kill count, but there sure better not be a passage from a different religion inscribed on it. Oh no! This is just so absurd.
Do not misconstrue my frustration as frustration with our military. I love our military and stand behind them 100%. My husband was a Marine and has purchased his own Trijicon for use with his AR. I'm just a mother of 4 who is tired of the minority pushing us around and all of the hypocrisy that goes along with it.
