No. I think they've got to make some judgment about what the illustration's costs and benefits. You'll recall that I started out by saying that I didn't think these cartoons have much merit to them. Other than as a poke in the eye with a sharp stick, I mean. Y'all seem to be saying the Danish had a responsibility to fight the GWOT by pissing off Moslems however they could.

Ty. When a born-again kills an abortion doctor do you take their side because they think Jesus wanted the killing? Do privacy rights sit on a higher plane than first amendment rights?
You keep trying to make this a question of legal rights. I never said the Danish newspaper shouldn't have a first-amendment-sort of right to publish this stuff. I just think they should have exercised their rights to publish something else.

Is it okay for other posters to not like me temporarially because I publish a Hitler-Hank avatar?
It is both OK and their right.

God bless America.
