In today’s version of Afterburner, Bill Whittle talks about the Garland terrorist attack and how the Islamo-Nazis didn’t just attack Pamela Geller and her drawing event, but they attacked all of us. And he takes on the folks who says ‘I believe in free speech, but…’.

Couldn't find a thing to disagree with in this commentary.

In my opinion, this is the appropriate American position: free speech, no apology.

Jesus Christ, who in their right mind is saying that Geller and the event organizers "deserved to die". Whoever has said that is as much an extremist as the dead shooters. They deserved to die.

Why is it that some people believe that her constitutional right to offend is more worthy than other people's right to disagree with her?

Disagreeing with her constitutionally protected actions is part of the very same free speech that Whittle says we should protect.

There is so much emotion blocking out clear thinking on this, that is is scary, and every pundit is looking for an angle to outdo every other pundit.

[[ Bill Whittle: I believe in free speech, but… ]]

Yup.
As the left would say:
