Any thoughts on my question?
It's not a valid comparison if you would really think about it.
Everyone knows that Muslims kill over drawings of Mohammed.
That would be like a woman going to a Rape-aholics Anonymous meeting with a T-shirt that says "Rape me," and then questioning why she got raped for what she was wearing.

Speaking of not-valid comparisons.
Your logical reasoning is non-existent.

What you said:
Not comparable to what happened in Garland. Now, it would be comparable if the art show were held in a mosque, or if your hypothetical was a woman wearing said shirt in a public place and being raped.
If I say something critical of Mohammed in a public place, I should not expect to be brutally murdered. We live in a nation of laws and rights, one of which is free speech. Yes, you can sometimes expect negative consequences for exercising your 1st Amendment rights, but murder is, in fact, illegal in this country.

I am truly flabbergasted right now.
