OT: Muhammed-caricatyres and freedom of speach

[EvilGenius4ABetterTomorro]

Wasn't there also cartoons regarding other religions? You don't see see a bunch of wild eyed bomb throwing buddists rioting in the streets calling for the heads of Danes.
Boy if I went off the deep end everytime I got offended by something I would probably be looked down upon too.
Kinda reminds me of when Triumph the insult comic dog made a remark about the french speakers in Canada. Then people were saying "Your getting angry over a dog puppet"
Now it's "Your rioting and killing people over a cartoon"
Back in 1971 some gunmen fired on people in a movie theatre who went to see the movie "Muhammed: Messenger of God" because they thought the movie actually showed the image of Muhammed. It didn't!
Get a grip Abul!

I by no means condone their actions but this is what they (extremist Muslims) base their actions on:

"Islamic law, based on clerics' interpretation of the Quran and the sayings of the prophet, forbids depictions of the Prophet Muhammad and other major religious figures — even positive ones — to prevent idolatry."

I absolutely don't agree but that's what many believe.
