Bad pictures of Jesus, Buddha, and all kinds of symbols come out all the time, a-la Jesus on South Park. Muslims need to shut the hell up about this particular issue, get mad about something legit. Look up the words "Free Speech" before you keep bitching.

Please Don't tell me there is another thread for this, this is such a huge issue, there should be 100 threads.

no one seems to care so ill post and give you a big WAH!!!

i didnt know free speech was an inalienable right to all mankind.

the Queen of Denmark came out and pretty much told the people protesting this cartoon to STFU today.

I think that deserves a chuckle and a shrug of the shoulders.

i think i need to agree with skum on this one. it really doesnt help your people when you riot and go psycho over some retarded crap like this. now i know to them it is unholy, but cant they just realize whoever drew, published and laughed at the comic is going to hell, rather than riot like a bunch of uncivilized nut bags

ehhhh

not so much.

There are limits to free speech, even in America.

You can't yell "fire!" in a crowded auditorium, and you can't knowingly slander a person. Free speech is almost always limited in wartime as well.

The muslim world can impose their own restrictions on free speech up to a point and still run a democracy, but there is a limit to those restrictions before you become an authoritarian state.

1. thats what the word "kinda" is for
2. i see this as a far cry from someone yelling "fire!" in a crowded theater

The masses are irrational when it comes to religious matters.

now how about this guy:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4686410.stm

he dressed up like a suicide bomber in london and freaked a buncha people out, and got the police and such checking him out.

but now he is profusely apologizing. saying it was a misguided attempt to compare and contrast the outrage muslims feel about The Prophet (pbuh) being caricatured.

he shouldnt apologize imo.

I really just think that the muslim community doesn't understand that other people believe different things. I personally just think it absurd that they are burning embassys over something this little. Angry muslims are really a plague on our society. This is not commenting on muslims in general, but the world would be so much more peaceful if it weren't for the middle east. They have been fighting for ever, literally.

I heard the cartoonists are hiding for their lives.
That makes me feel better in some ways.

Kind of like a paparazi getting punched in the face for being an ass.

^fuck off

they pointed out a fact
the extremists verified it

this is not muckraking
its concerned journalists showing the world something

2/7/2006 12:22:42 AM

your reaction makes me chuckle as well.

kinda the same as when a bitch gets her panties in a wad.

You could print some racist cartoons depicting blacks as stupid thugs in the LA Times and there would be riots in Compton.

Would that prove that blacks are violent niggers?

Yes, the muslim world can impose their own restrictions on free speech... in the muslim world. I think the problem here is that they want to impose their restrictions on free speech throughout the world, and by violent means at that.
