The Guardian is reporting that...
Two gunmen have been killed and a security guard injured during what appeared to be an attack on a contest for cartoon depictions of the prophet Muhammad in a Dallas suburb.
The gunmen drove up to the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland shortly before 7pm on Sunday where the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) were hosting the exhibition and contest.
According to city authorities an unarmed guard at the event was shot at before the men were engaged and killed by police.
Further...
A bomb squad was called in after reports of a possible incendiary device at the scene of the incident. Police said a "bomb container trailer" had also been deployed in which to place any suspect device.
A police spokesman said two males had been killed and their bodies were still lying outside their car hours later.
"Because of the situation of what was going on today and the history of what we've been told has happened at other events like this, we are considering their car (is) possibly containing a bomb," Officer Joe Harn, a spokesman for the Garland Police Department, said.

I am old to the idea of someone posting random nonsensical bullshit and thinking themselves insightful for it.
Let's look at the rhetorical fallacy that kicked this off:
Anyone who reads the entirety of those books would never come away with such an understanding.
It's a combination of the No True Scotsman and argument from authority fallacies. Only people who have read every single page in the highly subjective approved way can be considered to have the authority to have "understanding" and of course, that "understanding" exactly mirrors some irrelevant AC's opinion. I note also the AC poster emphasized (with italics) "selective reading". That's another setup for the No True Scotsman fallacy since clearly any disagree with the poster is now due to selective reading rather than the fact that the Bible actually contains verses, sometimes quite extensive to support the claim that the Bible is not entirely pro-freedom (such as endless Old Testament bragging about laying low the foes of God and the terrible things that come to them).
