Infact ill drop down the wiki about art:

Art is the process or product of deliberately arranging elements in a way to affect the senses or emotions.

No reason? People like beeing able to express themselfs. Be it with music, art, what not. Beeing able todo that is a part of beeing civilized.
Yes being able to upset people just because you find it funny is part of the civilised world. Thats why racism and homophobia are supported and encouraged in our society.

Wait what.

You're comparing a drawing of mohammed with the death of 15 million people.


What.







Sorry what?


i believe the point of the cartoon was to show the hypocrisy of the guys complaining about a drawing

I'm not sure in what society you are living but in The Netherlands racism and "homophobia" arent allowed. Infact we have a gay pride day in Amsterdam every year.

I take it you live in Pakistan, cause then it would make sense.

The way I see it, anyone so stuck up in their ways that they haven't even got a sense of humour and can get so irate about a damn cartoon deserve to be mocked at every possible opportunity.

After hundreds of years the christians have finally gotten over themselves and take piss taking with a pinch of salt (with a few exceptions) because they are used to it.
It's about time islam got dragged kicking and screaming into the new century too, and realised they are not special or exceptions to any rules.

We like to laugh here in the west, get used to it.

tohtori defending 12th century style behaviour.
What if your posts on the internet offend my religious view and I wanna bomb your entire country cause of that?

Also Chronictank - you're comparing mocking tragic times in history that actually happened to drawing of a prophet who probably never even existed, or even if he did he was a terrible human being.

and sinking to their level is the correct way of doing things?

It's not sinking to their level, it's just making a point.
I'm not really a fan of Neville Chamberlain style politics, we all know what it led to.

sure, but there's a slight difference in "deliberately arranging elements in a way to affect the senses or emotions." and just doing it because it piss ppl off. :)

ppl that make these drawings isn't after anything other then to piss ppl off because they think its FUNNY!.

they do it out of spite and spite alone.

that it happen to be a drawing is pretty secondary. its the effect they are after, nothing else.

if they could get the same effect killing a sheep then they would have killed a sheep instead.

Stop talking about shit you don't know anything about. This man drew Muhammed with a bomb in his turban, but do you see him smiling? He's been attacked at his house by a crazy somalian guy who broke into his house with an axe while his grand-daughter was staying there. He didn't do it for the fun of it or just to piss people off. He did it because it's his rights and he should be able to draw whatever he feels like, without having to fear for his or his family's lives

The muslims I know are all "Meh, waste of time and resources", but the 12th century cavemen in the middle-east couldn't handle it and started burning our flag and what not

It had it's perks


I like that drawing, but I'm not sure how one would actually use that axe. it has pointy bits sticking out of where I'd expect someone to hold it :/
