The illustrations, some of which depicted Muhammad naked, hit newsstands across the country on Wednesday and were met with swift rebuke from the government of François Hollande, which had earlier urged the magazine, Charlie Hebdo, not to publish the cartoons, particularly in the current tense environment.

Here we go again.

The Onion, America's Finest News Source ™, has this definitely NSFW cartoon mocking every major religion except Islam.

As Jesus and Mo would have it,

On the other hand, this Ruben Bolling is safe for work:

hey where can I see these cartoons in question. They are like totally hidden. Yet I can see kate middletons boobs all over


But we really should make sure not to offend the sensibilities of Muslims???

I think we should all start pitching in and doing it!

It's good therapy for the Muslims.

Their rage is due to seeing the world pass them by and they become more and more irrelevant. All they have is Mohammed and oil. That's it. The last thing we need them to have is "the bomb".

I want Romney to drill and drill and force the price down of oil down and starve them back into the "good ol' days" of the 1200's".

While you're wishing for fantasy based on BS instead of reality, can you get me a flying pony?

Dr. Phil called. Even he thinks your armchair diagnosis is horrible.

Also, Pakistan already has the bomb, and they are predominantly Muslim.

Many Muslim people already live lifestyles that have much in common with the 13th century due to the fact that oil revenues don't reach down to them. For others, there simply never was any oil to begin with.

The US simply does not have the capacity to glut the world oil market.

Since when is condoning starvation and mass genocide acceptable?

Just because we come here to discuss politics and subjects of debate does not mean you are free to act like an ignorant bigot.

Well, Mr. Nasty, if there was anyone who has a simpleton view of the world, it is you.

Your utter lack of knowledge of the real world as it relates to economics, banking, world affairs, and geography, is stunning. But given today's educational environment, I'm not surprised you have a fairy tale belief in "man goodness to man"... Pleeeze...

So if you don't have anything better to say, then put me on ignore. To be insulted by you about my views just goes to show how naive you are. Your problem is you aren't getting the information you should have, and if you are you are either ignoring it or don't understand it.

I'm only nasty about opinions that are beyond stupid.

What you posted clearly fell within that category. I don't do "ignore." It allows stupidity to be utilized without being smacked down.

If you actually think I have an "utter lack of knowledge" feel free to point out a specific example from this thread.

[Chuckiechan]

Who give you the right to determine what is "stupid" and what isn't. I don't think you are stupid, you are just naive.

Maybe desensitizing Muslims is a good idea. We shouldn't be afraid of them.
