What, someone find a spine! YES, YEA!
He was a Dog of Peace.
Since there are no pictures of Muhammad, how do they know it’s him. Not his cousin.
Anybody know a good cartoonist? I have a great idea for a cartoon of Mohamed that would literally cause a worldwide islamic meltdown. Just don’t have the talent to draw it.
Iran has no say in how the Swedish run their affairs. Pleased to see this attempted censorship kicked out of town.
Does it involve a pig and a pair of silk stockings?
Good thing they didn’t make it a pit bull....(chuckle)
This is a translation of the article “The right to ridicule a religion” by Lars Ströman, Nerikes Allehanda.

Muslims remind me of the nerd kid in highschool who over-reacts every time they are made fun of. Then many people make fun of them on their weak spots because the reaction is so funny and predictable.
All of the 21st century should be about the world making fun of muslims.
Why hasn’t there been an art show in New York that featured Islamic holy symbols bathed in urine and smeared with feces? And how is it the liberals find Christianity to be so ‘scary’ but not so Islam? Could it be because they’re truly scared by Islam? Wouldn’t that make them cowards? Am I being too rhetorical?
In barring this cartoon due to Iran’s criticism, they’re sucking up to the enemy. What happened to free press??
Good for the newspaper to stand behind their decision to publish it.
Well, Laz, doesn’t fire cause the invisible ink to appear? Light it up!
Maybe he wears a name tag stuck to his robe.
It does involve a pig, and silk stockings could be incorporated.
This here’s a picture of a coondog with a racoon.

Too bad. Not explicit enough.

Learn to draw. It would be worth it!
