Although I am no fan of Islam or Mohammad, I do find it disrespectful to poke fun at someone else's religious beliefs. I don't think their lives should be threatened over being tasteless and something needs to be done about these extremists organizations.
Thing about South Park is that they may fun of everything in society, not just religion. Really too, at the end of the day, it should all be made fun of and our ridiculous nature is fun to laugh at.
There's that old saying about "getting your head handed to you". Too often literally true when radical Muslims get PO'd about something. Watch your backs....er, heads....Parker and Stone.

Don't get me wrong ... I was not calling for censorship but just commenting about how disrespectful it is to poke fun at the beliefs of others.

Tell the truth now, you know how you rally feel . This is not your everyday religian . How many religians slowly saw the heads off people on videos ? Like they did the American contractor, Danial Pearl and many others . How many muslims spoke out against it ? Most muslim on earth was yelling death to america when a few idiot soldiers abused iraqis .
I think the radicals are the real islam, and the moderates are hypocrits . I have had some long conversations with muslims online and in stores .
Oh, and interestingly enough--this Abu Talhah Al-Amrikee character who made the statement attacking the show---his revolutionmuslim.com website is currently down and the phone number listed for the group is out of service now...
Good. I was hoping 4chan and anonymous ilk would get a hold of this and bring the site down. Dunno if they did, but those pig porkers deserve it.
