Danish Cartoons Offend European Muslims

Monday, February 6, 2006

A series of recent political cartoons, published initially in Denmark and reprinted by seven other European newspapers, has offended Muslims with its depictions of Muhammad, including one with a bomb for a turban. What do you think?

"I don't get it. Is it funny because all Arab people smell bad?"

Tammy Mulvenna,

"I guess the blasphemous "Marmaduke" comic where the irascible Great Dane refuses to get off Jesus' couch taught the world nothing."

Damon Locks,
Systems Analyst
"Boy, Europe is really ahead of us. I still have to go into the bathroom of an Arby's here in order to see something that's offensive to Muslims."
