I really am hoping this is a joke, if you don't actually understand why this movement was created you deserve no less than to be an eternal serving b1tch like all the others who enslave and abuse themselves.

that will make me protesting for something which morans made up, right? not even bothering...

You DO NOT get to call yourself a muslim, a christian, etc, if you are not willing to stain your hands with blood and do all the atrocities these cults demand you to do. It's a very simple to understand indisputable fact. All that is left to talk past that point is will we tolerate that which demands for the life of those who don't summit or will we not, when it comes to religion that has always been the question.

Not about Islam itself, but the situation.

The people at fault are, in fact, the Muslim extremists. Simple as that.

The People at fault are actually the ones LOOKING for controversy. Because they found it. Yes the extremist are idiots for getting offended, but it's also their right to get offended. In other words they have the right to be idiots, but if you look at their history Muslims are constantly looked at in a different light because of 9/11. Which that is a main reason that they are constantly targeted for controversy.. it's always easier to be against the minority and people like easy.

I wasn't aware that it's part of the Muslim religion to bomb people and commit other atrocious acts. People can choose to believe in whatever religion they want.. doesn't matter what a neglectful moron thinks about it. Muslims don't HAVE to follow extremist like fucking sheep.

How is threatening to kill someone even come close to drawing pictures of some dude and posting it on the internet? :palm:
how does giving terrorists what they want help anything at all. the comedy central guys pussied out, atleast these guys are doing something, even if its making fun of the extremists.

and im confused why the non-radical muslims would even be offended by this. do you guys get offended when you see other people eating pork?

and according to wiki, the Koran doesnt say you shouldn't draw Mohammed anyways, luls

It was never meant to "insult" Islam. Things are only insulting if you so choose them to be. The purpose of the entire Draw Mohammad Day, was to express freedom of speech rights. The fact of the matter is, comedy central were given death threats over having Mohammad in an episode(which is not the first time, I'm sure I've seen him in episodes prior, did they give a shit? No. Point being is, they have no right or say in what we draw or say.

This is why I hate religion, bunch of butt hurt people over simple things such as drawings, while more serious shit happens elsewhere in the world.

apparently they blocked some pages from wikipedia as well. :P

@guardia; the page was meant to protest against the censorship of southpark and mohammed's drawings in general, which goes against freedom of speech. if people get offended by it, its their problem.

I would condemn both of these actions the same way I did with the death threats, this is exactly the point being made, you are clearly not too bright.

Maybe if they want the equal treatment that the extremists talk about then they should learn to take criticism on the chin just like everyone else. Down with this political correctness and double standards.

WTF are you talking about? You haven't made a point at all. All you've done is talk about a point you have in a very self-righteous manner that's basically trolling. In fact, when someone (blackdragon) questioned your point, all you decided to do was to jump on someone who Farking posted BEFORE YOU and talk down to them; saying they don't get your point at all and obviously can't comprehend your superior intellect in their post when the post you quote was posted BEFORE YOUR POINT EVER APPEARED.

Now, if you're referring to the point being made by the facebook group, then that's debatable but it still doesn't not warrant your patronizing cause you don't seem to see "the point". The point is simple:
Idiots condemn horrible actions through destructive, purely symbolisitic, and ultimately meaningless means.

The rest of us condemn horrible actions through constructive and pragmatic means that seek to accomplish something beyond mere symbolism.


A journalist drew the prophet Muhammad in a cartoon a couple of years ago, the response was to burn a shitload of the journalists' nationality's flags. Yeah, a lot got done there, this is exactly what's happening here. Oh man, we're showing them! Drawing Muhammad day will stop death threats, now they know they can not threaten us with impunity for we will draw pictures to offend them... Farking idiots.

People who think we're selfish trolls for expressing our freedom of speech rights are just selfish trolls. I'm a bit disappointed right now.

Drawing Mohammad is an expression of protest.

What may be a execution punishment in Muslim countries, holds nothing here.
"Theocracy- A theocracy is a government in which rule is directed by the belief in a god or certain religious beliefs."
People seem to confuse the fact that there Laws(Qur'an), do not apply to anywhere else but within there own areas.

tl;dr - Theres nothing wrong with it.

Our rights end where others' begin.

Muslims have their freedom of religion and they have a right to be pissed when people mock them.

Shit like this is only going to make things worse. How would you feel if it was your religion that was constantly the punchline of everyone's joke? It's not unreasonable to think that some people would be so offended that they would make threats. You would too if you cared enough.

So have fun trying to justify being a dumbass and defending this idiotic Facebook crap. I just better not catch any of you crying when one of those extremists decides he's had enough.

White people draw a picture of a tortured black man -> a few black people send death threats -> You guys support white people.

Really so hard to understand?

Im saying that it would the same, one is done to insult islam and the other to insult black people.

BTW, im not a muslim so I sure as hell am not biased, just saying before someone makes a stupid claim that I in someway am.

We have Freedom of Speech, and we have the right to draw Muhammad regardless.

Your right, it is going to make things worse, but sometimes society needs that catalyst to push us towards change for the better, people are unaware that the stove is hot, until they get burned. Its unreasonable within our society to send death threats over a drawing of such, I beleive thats called Terroristic Threatening

Anyways, this subject has lost my interest, I'll just observe until I feel the need to express my opinion again.

Let me begin by letting you know I was in bed getting rdy to watch a movie and perhaps get some sleep til this happened.

The troll loves playing with you, specially when he is right, now let's properly address you.

Let's clearly state "the point", the point is that everything is subject to criticism and inherit perks like "open debate". Any threat to this very principle is not to be tolerated as tolerance to this principle equates servitude, all this is very obvious to me but I guess stuff like this needs to be written down for people "like you".

all you decided to do was to jump on someone who Farking posted BEFORE YOU and talk down to them
,
when the post you quote was posted BEFORE YOUR POINT EVER APPEARED
this was a theme in your response and allow me to just say that the reasoning behind it is just idiotic to say the least, you presume I read every single response and that I somehow am not able to respond to other comments made in any way I please, all I got to say to that is yeah ...

Idiots condemn horrible actions through destructive, purely symbolisitic, and ultimately meaningless means.

The rest of us condemn horrible actions through constructive and pragmatic means that seek to accomplish something beyond mere symbolism.


The situation to me is clear, someone "offended" x and x went to the streets with arms and without a doubt clearly stated that any offense ( really wanted to add and criticism ) will be dealt with death. Things to be pointed out, action was taken, and arms were involved, where were the good men of peace during this time ? lol at that question, not dying being hypocrites of course :) .

................ making this short, I can see myself dragging the point. Someone used words/illustrations against their skygods in what they consider to be not a favorable way and they tried to silence them with the threat of death, what you appear to be calling meaningless symbolism is us clearly stating our will to exercise our previously stated rights and our independence of this cult ( look for "the point" in case you want something written regarding the rights I am talking about ).

You mentioned this less virtuous person as the one who gave a correct response that disproved my previous made statement ... ( I really was going to take a different tone with that but I guess you can call me merciful, lol nvm I am a total jerk on this next part ). Allow me first to say why I didn't respond to our intellectual here, oh wait that's right I didn't because he is such an idiot that he can't process the information given to him.

I wasn't aware that it's part of the Muslim religion to bomb people and commit other atrocious acts
relevant response.

People can choose to believe in whatever religion they want..
relevant.

doesn't matter what a neglectful moron thinks about it
questionable meaning in the given context and the statement it was responding.

Muslims don't HAVE to follow extremist like fucking sheep.
the crust, let's be redundant and give a relevant response to this AGAIN.

I had to read a lot for this ..............
..................................................................
.....................................................................................

Anyways "Allah" is into stoning adulterers under the well known rules ( don't even try the bullshit argument because:

[5:44] We have sent down the Torah, containing guidance and light. Ruling in accordance with it were the Jewish prophets, as well as the rabbis and the priests, as dictated to them in GOD's scripture, and as witnessed by them. Therefore, do not reverence human beings; you shall reverence Me instead. And do not trade away My revelations for a cheap price. Those who do not rule in accordance with GOD's revelations are the disbelievers. ,

you should know where that leads ... ). Ok I am cutting this short for today because I can ...and/or have spent too much in it already >.>

I was going to make the point that you either believe in the Quran and follow it's guidance or you don't but you do not get to select the parts you like and call yourself a muslim, much like with the bible, etc, things just don't work that way. You are surely entitled to believe in any part of the Quran you like but the moment you don't follow and accept the book in it's entirety you become something else, perhaps a confused person, but certainly not a muslim.

What kind of ignorant person are you? You are insulting Muslims, Not terrorist! They don't give a shit what you draw or say they are on mission. They got nothing to lose and they won't change their mind what ever you call or draw :palm:
