Thanks Denmark…For finally growing a pair
Denmark, May the light of Liberty ALWAYS shine upon you. Democracy and Freedom must never be taken for granted

This is how unemployed people spend their time; this and in making rockets. If Israel had any sense, she would quit strangling their economy, and help them make jobs

Muslim’s actions turn reasonable non-muslim’s against them. If they REALLY were followers of the prophet, they would shun violence. The world is watching and will decide, hopefully without a new crusade that the violence caused in the past. Think about it

am not in favor of being PC for anything doesn’t mean I’m an anarchist - whether its liberal values of having to “accept” homosexuality or whether its the refusal of liberal societies who guilt themselves out of the bi-directional’s nature of racism. In the 70’s/80’s SAL made fun of everything and you choice watch or leave - now everything has to sanitized for risk of offending some group or sub-group. I for one am not in favor of turning everything into vanilla but I not in favor of listening to every group whine either. Comedy has always had an edge to it and the best comedy changes inappropriate values maybe that’s what this really about - control. The Muslim argument sounds just to much like a reformation protestants vs.. Catholics ” Boring”

Freedom of speech? are you sure that i wont be hanged if i say something against a specific religion which has nothing to do with islam? of course then i will be an anti semitic, an anti christ or even a terrorist! freedom of speech became a weapon towards all Muslims. so im not buying this!

Honor to the Danes taking a stand on the religious extremism.
Personally, I don’t want to know about any religious interference in my daily life, after all religion is similar to having an imaginary friend, i.e. fiction

There is one simple solution for muslims who feel offended by the way we europeans express our thoughts. Pack up your belongings and return to your country! I am sure that you will live a much better life there, with regards to human rights, housing, employment, social benefits, etc. If you opted to live in a european country, (however uninvited) you must learn to adapt or else return to your “paradise “. We are living in the 21st century and people with medieval mentality simply do not fit

As quoted before, “Tolerance is a two way street.” I believe that this is the absolute correct thing to do, and want to compliment the newspapers for their commitment to standing up for their beliefs. Too many times today, people bend to the will of others, whether it is for religious or political reasons, instead of standing for their own beliefs. Only when all can express their beliefs without fear of retribution or attack can we truly say we live in free societies. That is, unfortunately, what the Muslims who would cause violence because of a cartoon do not understand, or care about

How would you feel if someone made a fool of your religion/idol?
Freedom of speech you say? There must be a limit to anything including freedom of speech.
When you are thinking of freedom you do not violate the freedom of others

I’m sure there are many things that Muslims value about their religion. Like all religions, there are many positive ideas and teachings that inspire good people to live good lives. But people are judged by their actions (and rightly so), and if the reaction to someone printing/writing/saying something you don’t like is violence, even to the point of killing, then those actions point to people who are barbaric and uncivilized. It is not the responsibility of the Danish newspaper to restrict what it prints just to assuage a particular group, but it is the responsibility of individuals to control their response. If they don’t like it, they don’t have to read that newspaper, but they don’t have the right to intimidate the people exercising their rights of free speech. The truly ironic thing is that images of Mohammed are prohimited because of the danger that it could lead to idolatry. Isn’t it idolatrous to make an image so important that people will riot and kill over it?
It is only the blind acceptance of religion (any religion) that leads someone like Shafeeq (20) to say:
“If they wage war or ridicule the prophet then Allah will wage war against them. And remember the we all belong to Allah and He choose who He wants to fight this scourge. For their own safety and warning it is better for them to stay away from such actions.”
Now isn’t that convenient for anyone who wants to riot or kill? All they have to do is convince themselves that their god is making them do it
Until the good, decent, non-violent Muslims speak out and refuse to be part of this attack on the western values of rationality and free speech, they will be seen by the rest of the world as supporting it. They will all be seen as backward
