There is one major difference Steven...and that is the thought that 'because someone didn't like the words of someone else, then killing that person is an approved method of quieting them..." I certainly don't shoot or throw a grenade at someone in my house, invited or not, if they say something obnoxious to me. Now, then again, I might do either of those things if they were a) uninvited, and b) if they decided it would be alright to kill anyone in my house, including me. Come to think of it, that is how most Americans I know feel about 9-11. Maybe when people stop throwing grossly insensitive provocations in their faces. I’m not defending the idea of throwing grenades at missionaries, but these missionaries were essentially uninvited guests, and there are things that uninvited guests, or even invited ones, just don’t say or do in the house of their hosts.
