well back to the point there still is no justifycation rioting over a cartoon,
it is a cartoon
If there was a right being ignored
or a harm being done,
but geting upset over a cartoon

isn't this over already?
the actual rioting and all.

I totally understand Doomsought saying there is no point in rioting over a cartoon but they have the right to get angrey. (just not angrey enough to start destroying stuff)

I read about the clerics offering 1 million dollars to whoever kills one of the Danish cartoonists... and then read about how Pakastani earthquake survivors are begging for more aid and I just shake my head.

well from my view point is that the fanatics is doing what they think is right and the publisher are also think that they are right
but for me it is right that they too hardheaded to accept their mistakes and their ego become flame for other and other flame makes other flame spread and so on and so for as it is spreading like virus
that is why i avoid such sensitive subject as like religion

Just very dumb thing the newspaper did. They should have known not to mess with the drama queens of the world religion... Muslim fanatics get riled up so damn easily. Why the hell is it such a damn taboo having their prophet in a cartoon? Call me ignorant but I just don't get their logic. Confused

I mean Jesus is shown in so many silly cartoons, and that hasn't caused any riots.

Hey I have an idea about how to end the world without heavy duty firepower.
Just draw bunch of satire cartoons about major religion figures and publish them. They should have used that in an episode of Pinky and the Brain.

Both side are stupid, the muslin side are stupider.

For one thing, why can the muslins use Jesus and other saint from the other religions in a comic, while their saint are not allowed to be used in return?

it is a cartoon for sanity's sake
do you want me to list the cartoons/TV show/Movies which have insulted my religion in simular if not worse ways
doing that would probably make A-S have to buy a higher bandwith

IT IS A CARTOON!
GET OVER IT!

Well you dont Know crap about Islam If you say that you should shrugg off making fun of someone that commands more respect then even more respect then your parent in my religion.

What if some one made a cartoon making fun of black (sorry for being so blunt) people by saying nig** or the n word. I gurantee that there would be a giant uproar with rioting. Then what if the person that made the cartoon made a shirt and went to Harlem or Compton. Chances are they would probably get injured or worse just because of the nature of the cities.

In genera, except for a few extremists most non Muslims don't give too shits about what anyone thinks about their prophets, spiritual leasers, elected leaders, or any kind of social stigma. I'm not saying all Muslims have their panties in a knot or any such extreme. I am however saying that there is no insult that you can say or print that will cause a riot for most peoples and religions. There are of course times when a series of actions and speeches from officials and major publications will reach a boiling point and riot and such will occur. However one publication satarizing (is that even a word?) one person will never cause riots. An uproar, of course, insulting someone like Martin Luther King Jr. without purpose would lead most likely to some form of class action lawsuit and boycotting on the part of some people.

There is nothing that can be said to justify these riots. The end.
