Carnage In The Streets: One Year Later

Speaking of "The Passion of the Christ," it has been exactly one year, as of today, that the film was released.

Honesty demands that we update the death and violence toll after a full year of Jews being attacked right where they stand by Christians whipped into an anti-Semitic lather by the film, first after the theatrical release, and then after the film's wide distribution on home video.

So....

One year after professional umbrage-taker Abe Foxman of the Anti-Defamation League begged Mel Gibson to "implore his viewers not to let the film turn some toward a passion of hate,"

after the ADL held a hysterical meeting in Palm Beach to assess the impending danger posed by the film,

after Maureen Dowd claimed that viewing the movie made her "want to kick in some Jewish and Roman teeth,"

after Jeff Jacoby said "it is not unreasonable to worry about the effect of a movie like 'The Passion' at a time of surging anti-Semitism,"

after every cable talk show endlessly debated the dangers the film would pose when exposed to the vast, uneducated, fundamentalist American populace,

after Rabbi Schmuley Boteach (previously best known as Michael Jackson's pal) appeared on every conceivable broadcast to turn beet-red with rage about the impending Holocaust II the film would bring about,

one year after all of that, the official total of violent actions perpetrated by frothing Christians worked up into a frenzy against Jews while watching "The Passion" remains....zero.

Nada. Zip. Not one. Never happened. Don't ever let 'em forget it, either.
