Seattle cartoonist Molly Norris has declared May 20th “Everybody Draw Mohammed Day,” in defense of Matt Stone and Trey Parker. All freedom-loving Americans should get behind this. While initially I thought it was an ironic joke that South Park was censoring everything related to Mohammed in their last episode, obviously we have seen over the last few days that against the creators’ will, Comedy Central cowered in the face of a thinly veiled Muslim threat.
In fact, submission, the definition of Islam, is the apt word to describe Comedy Central’s cowardice.
The bottom line is that the First Amendment guarantees free speech including criticism of all peoples. We are an equal-opportunity offense country. To censor ourselves to avoid upsetting a certain group (in a cartoon no less) is un-American.
It is especially egregious because it represents dhimmitude. We are sacrificing our law and our heritage to Sharia. The law of our land is the Constitution and beyond that the natural law granted to us by our divine creator.

Best one I’ve seen yet!
A 72 virgins thumbs up(thats 144 thumbs)!
A romantic sweet yet wonderfully satiric comic at the same time! Kudos to the author, deserves a reward!
“and a high chair for my wife.”
It just doesn’t get any better
Apparently the Islamists in this country have gone “a bridge too far” in their criticisms and now have begun to experience backlash from the very folks they need to make Islam “palatable” to the “sheeples”!
Is May 20th a special day for Islamists, by the way? I was wondering why that date!
I can’t draw but perhaps FR will tolerate a strong vanity polemic from me....the juices are already beginning to flow!
The Bible forbids graven images or depictions of God, but that hasn’t stopped actors from depicting him in movies, artwork from showing him as an old man with a white beard, or cartoons from showing him. And, mysteriously, none of these people have been murdered.
Christians have to deal with explicitly forbidden imagery of God all the time - sometimes even in church. Islamists just need to get over themselves; what makes them so freaking special?
FWI Ping!
Their problem is that they are *not* special; in fact, they are wholly insignificant. Hence their hatred, born out of a deeply seated, 1400-year-old (well-deserved) inferiority complex. They're the stupid, ugly kid living in the basement, the one the other kids don't want to play with.
Nice to see people pushing back!
Thanks for the ping.
