This is what the organizers wanted in order to prove their point.
"Your honour, she was asking for it."
Yeah, who doesn't want their art exhibition shot up? http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/05/us/pamela-geller-organizer-of-muhammad-cartoon-contest-hails-results.htmlTurns out, she is now taunting the shooting as "proof" that she's right.
This is exactly the response they were hoping for. Maybe not them being shot at themselves, but
some kind of violent response
somewhere to continue their narrative about how Islam is a danger and inherently violent. It's still on the shooters for actually doing it, as is with pretty much all acts of violence, but if you don't think there is some kind of sick motive behind things like "Burn a Koran Day" and "Draw Muhammed" contests, well you put too much faith in these people.
And now, news coverage of this event and her organization allows Pamela Geller to get a stage to continue pushing her sick and twisted views.
