why didnt the muslims protest when south park drew muhammed in 2004?
becuase they didnt offend him in any way, it was a character
why did the muslims protest becuase of the drawings by the danish cartoonist?
becuase he drew muhammed with a bomb on his head.
theres a certain line you shouldnt cross, its called the sh** line, if you cross it you're asking to be covered in sh**!!

plus i'm not siding with the muslims on this, i just dont see any good reason why you want to make fun of someone knowing it will spark some kind of retaliation that may harm innocent people.
the world is a bad place as it is, why make it worse?

How is it making it worse? I didn't know this was ''draw mohammed with a bomb on his head day''.
Oh, thats because it isn't, it's simply draw mohammed day, a day when people finally stand up to a ridiculous rule, and I personally think freedom of speech is something worth fighting extremists for.

Mohammad is the one on the far right. South Park already drew him before this whole controversy broke out. This photo also has Joseph Smith, Jesus and I think that's Buddha. For anyone to complain about something like this, is just asking for more to come from it.
These are NOT religious extremist., They are terrorists. Fascists, Nazi's. Whatever you want to call them. They are hiding behind religion as their barrier. I laugh and make fun of a lot of things. So does South Park. They also make fun of themselves. And so do I. You have to be able to laugh. If you are too uptight to laugh at yourself then you should relax
I'm not the one advocating starting a war over a cartoon. Neither is this cartoonist or the writers of South Park.
The only ones calling for any war are the ones who can't laugh at themselves. It isn't just Muslims that this is poking fun at. Scientology is as bad or worse than the main stream Muslims are, but they only want to sue. They aren't talking about bombing anything. And South Park didn't even HINT at Muslims or Mohammad being fudge packers like they did certain Scientologists.

I read your post fine, and I'm asking you, why we should give in to religious extremism when in the issue of freedom of speech?

I didn't invade the middle east.
And once again, it's your, not you're.
And I don't see how you can be so quick to cop out the one freedom that is essential to liberty.
But wait, let me get this straight, because america is stationed in afghanistan, we're not allowed to draw pictures of mohammed?
