Freedom of speech my skinny ass. You can't use speech to incite a riot nor can you use it to threaten a public official. When the clergy incites the believers to act against the law they have exceeded the limits of that freedom. A fatwa can be, in fact, a call to commit a crime.
Fuck their sensitivities, we don't live under Shari law.

One way to deal with threats from the NOMs (Nutters of Muhammad) is to do the thing they are trying to prevent. In this case, I think a campaign of tagging Facebook photos with "Muhammad" on pictures of bears, naked women, the pope etc. should be started by those million plus South Park fans. Go ahead, stone all of them. It is time to stop backing down to these loonies and their silly devotion to middle eastern paleolithic goat herder myths, If every threat multiplied the number of representations of he who must not be represented, they might eventually realize the folly of their belligerence.

You do get that I am not actually calling for violence, right? The whole Scott Tenorman’s parents thing is obvious satire.

Wasn't it like an open death threat that he conveyed to Matt & Trey? To me it sounded like that you guys will end up like Theo Van Gogh.

Btw, this is a clever and an appropriate response. We probably need to built a database for these crazy folks so they too do not get the liberty which they deny to many others.

I know, I have friends in Manassas and one of them even goes to GMU too.

I still like the concept the late Congressman Charlie Wilson is alleged to have said (as represented by the film, Charlie Wilson's War):

Do you think they might be a whole lot happier over there [Pakistan] if they could just get women and booze in the same room at the same time?

Well said. These fanatics need a taste of the fear they inflict on others. For too long Muslim extremists in the West have enjoyed freedom while they threaten, intimidate and harm others. We need to identify all of them and publish their names, addresses and photos. They try to hide behind pseudonyms while they inflict misery on others through the internet. Perhaps it's because they feel stuck in a religion that denies them sexual freedoms etc.
