Salman Rushdie shares what he wanted to do immediately after being attacked

This cat is a badass.

Brought to you by radical Islam. I have a really hard time not writing off the entire religion at this point.

Amazing, brave man!

I'm completely repaired as he says with a lost eye, lost motion in half his hand and half his mouth droops.

At first I thought this was the SUN 🌞

Even if I strongly disagree with your opinion, I will defend your right to say it.

I remember meeting him on a train to London he's a very nice pleasant man.

As a lifelong agnostic, I have very little time for any organised religion. However, the thing that should be said is that I feel zero personal threat from any organised religion, bar one. If I were a public figure and publicly castigated Jesus, or Moses, or Krishna, or Buddha, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster, it’s very likely nothing would happen to me. If I publicly lambasted Muhammad, it’s quite likely there’d be a backlash and I’d be watching my back for the rest of my life. That’s the difference. Just ask Salman Rushdie. It seems Islam is so trigger-sensitive it can’t take honest criticism, when it’s just a bunch of manmade ideas like all the rest. Never let anyone tell you it’s ‘racist’ or a ‘hate-crime’ to criticise Islam. Islam is a belief-system held by people of multifarious races. Islam seems to think it’s entitled to a free pass when it comes to scrutiny. If Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Spaghettiism, etc. are subject to criticism, then Islam is too.

This person is a commissioned author, his other books have also insulted other revolutions. Freedom of expression is not that you insult everyone. Maybe respect for persons and religions is not important for the children of capitalism, but the nation of the East is the center of civilizations and religions. This man is a mercenary 

Great author who really isn’t the least bit afraid to take on radical maniacs.

I guess Wednesday is down day with the court. You think someone ever named their kids Tab and Lloyd?

My heart goes out to this poor man

This class can't b from 007...must b from triple 000.7

We probably need new knife laws.

Trampling on the rights to speak of 1.4 billion people at will! You are truly great!

He has exposed Islam more than anyone else.

Nightmares are real 😨
