Lets all bully the muslims.
I don't think this is a very productive line of action, very agressive and confrontational. This comment does not mean I am defending the actions of an extreme minority who threatened the South Park guys.
However, with freedom of expression comes a responsibility to not offend others. What did the South Park guys hope to achieve by portraying the prophet onscreen? It smacks to me of a cheap publicity stunt, hidden behind the banner of freedom of expression.
If someone finds something offensive, would you go out of your way to deliberately offend them? Why? At the very least it is bullying, at most it is a very agressive act.
The muslims who counter this threats, and acts of violence are just as ignorant, and deserve to not be called Muslim. Look back to Persian (and even Ottoman too, I believe) art, there the prophet is depicted, granted not in a derogatory way.
Live and let live everyone, why do we feel we have to go out of our way to offend others (on both sides)? Are we doing it because we want to exercise the fact that we can? Less of the dick waving, be humble and respectful of others, and their beliefs. Its not hard.
