Pamela Geller Beats Back Bullying and Harassment by Council on American Islamic Relations

It's actually astonishing the kind of abuse that Pamela deals with on a daily basis. If anyone's over the target these days, she's the one.

See, "SHARIA THUGS KO'ED IN MARYLAND," and "GREAT AMERICAN MOMENT."

And see Ann Corcoran of the Maryland Conservative Action Network, at the Baltimore Sun, "The Sun prints an attack on free speech":
Organizers of the Maryland Conservative Action Network conference (Turning the Tides 2013) were profoundly disappointed that The Sun ran an attack on our conference and our speakers on the very morning of our conference ("The tide of Islamophobia," Jan. 12).

You did a huge disservice to your readers by posting this polemic in a complete vacuum and without an opportunity for response from those, especially Pamela Geller, whose characters were impugned by a writer with an obvious ax to grind. But perhaps we should be grateful because, in fact, by printing the opinion of Zainab Chaudry as you did with its inflammatory title, you demonstrated exactly the point Ms. Geller made to an audience of over 270 in Annapolis that morning.

Her presentation was on free speech and included a discussion of media bias (or even blackout) against anyone who would question the bullying and name-calling tactics of Islamists, such as those associated with CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations).
There's more at the link.

And then head back over to Pamela's, "HAMAS-CAIR LIBELS PAMELA GELLER IN THE BALTIMORE SUN: REBUTTAL."
