Hey, if we are going to go apeshit over this cartoon, we are no better than the Muslims flipping out about the Mohammed cartoons... come on... sure, that cartoon is tasteless, but the artist has a right under the Constitution to draw it.

And subscribers have a right to refuse to read that rag.

Muslims threaten death when they are offended, Americans boycott...

Choosing not to buy a product that you don't like is hardly going "apeshit". It's called capitalism. As a capitalist, I see no problem with politely chastising the offending newspaper and discontinuing the purchase of it.

Sure it does, and we also have a right to cancel our subscriptions. I don't know what constitution you've been reading, but mine doesn't say a word about forcing Americans to read your free speech.

They got the right to print it, and we've got the right to go "apeshit" as you put it. That's the beauty of the 1st ammendment.

A Cancelled subscription is not the same as calling for the death of the editor.
The Press has the right to their speech and the subscribers have the right to
object by cancelling their subscription

He has a right to draw it, the WP has the right to publish it, and Americans have a right NOT to support any cartoonist or paper for any reason...
