Now that the friggin' Steelers have one for the thumb, it's time to move on to more important issues, namely,
Don't Go Out of Your Way to Piss Off Muslims.
Don't publish inflammatory cartoons of Muhammed. Do Muslims seem like the kind of people who take this stuff lightly? Will millions of barely educated Muslims wait until they have all the facts before they blow their stacks? Do they seem like the sort of people who will say, "Of course, in a free society you may freely blaspheme our Prophet!" In short, will they get the joke? No.
I'm not saying that riots are a proper response, but anyone who's been paying attention should have known that publishing irrelegious cartoons is gonna get you in trouble. And as always, there are some who want to fan the flames of this, and get the crowds riled up, because it's good for business. And mocking their religion plays right into their hands.

Okay, so let's censor ourselves on this issue, on behalf of the angry mobs, and then be stunned f'ing senseless when flush-with-their-ability-to-silence-a-free-society-and-the-world-at-large they proceed to tell us what ELSE we cannot say... their 'argument' that they're a peaceful relgion pretty much evaporates in the face of the slightest provocation. Let them sweat out this growing pain. I feel like drawing some cartoons myself...
