So apparently a bunch of Arabs are rioting in the streets becuse Denmark published a cartoon that pissed them of, and it got republished in France and Germany. The reason they're so angry is because it portrays Mohammed in a bad (funny) way, and it's doubly bad because depictions of Mohammed are prohibited in the first place. So, to show the world

I was referring to these people that are going crazy over a cartoon, not Muslims as a collective group. People make fun of Christianity all the time, don't see me rioting. I've never burned a flag in my life. I agree with you on your second point, and even if I didn't think a joke about 9/11 was funny, I don't really care. People joke all the time. Big deal.

I understand why these people are upset and offended. That's not my point. You have every right to be pissed off if someone insults you. My point was that in general, this just happened to be a good case, such a reaction does not really make you look good. I get pissed off at stupid Americans that want to kill every brown guy in sight since 9/11, it makes Americans look stupid.
