Freedumb of Speech

Not content with that...We pull Jesus from a hat...
Emerson, lake & Palmer



Why is that if people are yammering about "freedom of speech" it usually means they are up to something that is going to piss off a lot of people (maybe even most people) ? Child Molestors and Nazis are two groups that come to mind.

The Danish incident where Muhammed was depicted a s a terrorist has pissed off..oh..about a billion people. I must ask one question: If The Prophet cannot be depicted, how can you know if he's being depicted in a cartoon??????? Of course, it is perfectly fine for Muslims to vow death to Isreal, or to burn the Amerkun flag or the Star of David, isn't it? I find it amusing when those who dish it out, can't take it.

The cartoons were in very poor taste, and papers here did not run them, but Islam needs to get a sense of humour. "Our" Cat Stevens is over there - can we drop him a line on this ?
