If you don't want to see a picture of Muhammed don't look at it. This is the problem with intolerance and intolerant people. Go live somewhere where everyone lives (or is forced to live) by the same values. The US is (still) a free society. Let's keep it that way.
I looked at some images of Muhammad and thought for the most part they were respectfully done, like some images of Jesus. Neither are meant to offend only inform. If there are negative comments, chances are they come from uninformed people who are afraid of things they don't understand. We'll all be judged in the end for our own behavior, don't become ignorant to prove a point.
Since most of the comments of the creator of this petition can no longer be read, I'm not sure exactly what they are getting at. However, there are some
truisms that I'm certain apply to this situation.
(1) The truth is its own defense.
(2) In countries with freedom of speech, no one has
the right not to be offended.
(3) People of any religious conviction need to come to
terms with the fact that their religious taboos
cannot be applied to others outside that
particular faith.
(4) Those who seriously believe that their religious
taboos should be recognized by all outsiders (and
who are troubled beyond endurance when this is
not practiced) should for their peace of mind
and public safety contemplate emmigrating to a
nation that considers it important to
prohibit freedom of speech in order to enforce the
religious taboos of that particular faith.
(5) Those who appreciate living in a country with
democratic government and rights such as freedom
of speech need for the sake of peace and harmony
to seize and desist from trying to force their
religious taboos on others.
I think this pretty much covers my position on this
subject.
i think it should be removed, i know that some people think muslims are those people who kill, kidnap and hijack but if we look at the world as a whole they aren't the only people with such acts, i'm a muslim i never killed, hijacked or kidnapped anyone but people think of me as a criminal, why? only because i'm a muslim, i have a lot of american friends i'm glad that they don't think of like that and they respect me and my beliefs very much and so do i and i know it's hard for you to understand me and it's your right to worry about your families and friends but you people should know that not all muslims are alike.
Pause for a moment, Refelct back. These are actual events from history that really happened. All were committed by Muslim Male Extremist between the ages of 17 and 40.1. 1968 Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed by muslim male extremist.2. 1972 at the Munich Olympics, Athletes were kidnapped and massacred by muslim male extremist.3. 1979 The U.S. Embassy in Iran was taken over by muslim male extremist.4. 1980's During this time a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon by muslim male extremist.5. 1983 The U.S. Marine Barracks in Beirut was blown up by muslim male extremist.6. 1985 TWA Flight 847 was Hijacked at Athens, and a U.S. Navy Diver trying to rescue passengers was murderd by muslim male extremist.7. 1985 the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked and a 70 year old American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard in his wheelchair by muslim male extremist.8. 1988 Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by muslim male extremist.9. 1993 The World Trade Center was bomed the first time by muslim male extremist.10. 1998 The U.S. Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by muslim male extremist.11. September 11, 2001 four airliners were hijacked two were used as missles to take down the World Trade Centers, and of the remaing two, one crashed into the U.S. Pentagon, and the other was diverted and crashed by the brave passengers who all perished. THOUSANDS of people were killed that day by muslim male extremist.12. 2002 The US. fought a war in Afghanistan against muslim male extremist.13. 2002 Reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and murderd by you quessed it muslim male extremist.No I really dont see a pattern here to justify fear and profiling do you!?!?!So to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on kiliing us our children, family, they dont care if your a Democrat or Republcan!!! Airport Screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people Absolutely No Profiling!!! They must conduct random searchers of 80 year old woman, little kids, 85year old Congressmen with metal hips,and Medal Of Honor winner and former Governor Joe Foss. Think about it the next time you or a loved on gets on a plane! But leave Muslim Males between the ages of 17 and 40 alone lest we be guilty of profiling! History has a strange way of repeating itself, Wouldnt you say? And now for the award winning act of stupidity of all times the people want to elect to the most powerful position on the face of the planet The President Of The United States Of America!!! A MUSLIM MALE EXTREMIST BETWEEN THE AGE OF 17 and 40!!! Something for the Obamabots to "think" about: OBAMA – LIAR, LIAR: 1.) Selma Got Me Born - LIAR, your parents felt safe enough to have you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in 1965. (Google 'Obama Selma' for his full March 4, 2007 speech and articles about its various untruths.)2.) Father Was A Goat Herder - LIAR, he was a privileged, well educated youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.3.) Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter - LIAR, he was part of one of the most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had.4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - LIAR, your cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya. It is the first widespread violence in decades. The current government is pro-American but Odinga wants to overthrow it and establish Muslim Sharia law. Your half-brother, Abongo Obama, is Odinga's follower. You interrupted your New Hampshire campaigning to speak to Odinga on the phone. Check out the following link for verification of that....and for more.http://biz.yahoo.com/ibd/080115/issues.html?.v=1Obama's cousin Odinga in Kenya ran for president and tried to get Sharia muslim law in place there. When Odinga lost the elections, his followers have burned Christians' homes and then burned men, women and children alive in a Christian church where they took shelter. Obama SUPPORTED his cousin before the election process here started. Google Obama and Odinga and see what you get. No one wants to know the truth. 5.) My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - LIAR, she does her daily Salat prayers at 5am according to her own interviews. Not to mention, Christianity wouldn't allow her to have been one of 14 wives to 1 man.6.) My Name is African Swahili - LIAR, your name is Arabic and 'Baraka' (from which Barack came) means 'blessed' in that language. Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama.Barack Hussein Obama is not half black. If elected, he would be the first Arab-American President, not the first black President. Barack Hussein Obama is 50% Caucasian from his mother's side and 43.75% Arabic and 6.25% African Negro from his father's side. While Barack Hussein Obama's father was from Kenya, his father's family was mainly Arabs. Barack Hussein Obama's father was only 12.5% African Negro and 87.5% Arab (his father's birth certificate even states he's Arab, not African Negro). From....and for more....go to.....http://www.arcadeathome.com/newsboy.phtml?Barack_Hussein_ Obama_-_Arab-American,_only_6.25%25_African7.) I Never Practiced Islam - LIAR, you practiced it daily at school, where you were registered as a Muslim and kept that faith for 31 years,until your wife made you change, so you could run for office.4-3-08 Article "Obama was 'quite religious in islam'" http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=605598.) My School In Indonesia Was Christian - LIAR, you were registered as Muslim there and got in trouble in Koranic Studies for making faces (check your own book).February 28, 2008. Kristoff from the New York Times a year ago:Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it'll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset."This is just one example of what Pamela is talking about when she says "Obama's narrative is being altered, enhanced and manipulated to whitewash troubling facts."9.) I Was Fluent In Indonesian - LIAR, not one teacher says you could speak the language.10.) Because I Lived In Indonesia, I Have More Foreign Experience - LIAR, you were there from the ages of 6 to 10, and couldn't even speak the language. What did you learn, how to study the Koran and watch cartoons.11.) I Am Stronger On Foreign Affairs - LIAR, except for Africa (surprise) and the Middle East (bigger surprise), you have never been anywhere else on the planet and thus have NO experience with our closest allies. 'Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September 11,2001?Were people from all over the world, mostly Americans, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan , across the Potomac from our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania ?Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible,burning or crushing death that day, or didn't they?And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran was 'desecrated' when an over worked American soldier kicked it or got it wet?...Well, I don't. I don't care at all. I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11.I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere possession of which is a crime in Saudi Arabia I'll care when these thugs tell the world they are sorry for chopping off Nick Berg's head while Berg screamed through his gurgling slashed throat.I'll care when the cowardly so-called 'insurgents' in Iraq come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques.I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of nirvana care about the innocent children within range of their suicide .I'll care when the American media stops pretending that their First Amendment liberties are somehow derived from international law instead of the United States Constitution's Bill of Rights.In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave marine roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain information, know this: I don't care.When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi prisoners who have been humiliated in what amounts to a college-hazing incident, rest assured: I don't care.When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank:I don't care..When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat,and fed 'special' food that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being 'mishandled,' you can absolutely believe in your heart of hearts: I don't care.And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's spelled 'Koran' and other times 'Quran.' Well, Jimmy Crack Corn and-you guessed it-I don't care !!If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to all your E-mail friends.Sooner or later, it'll get to the people responsible for this ridiculous behavior!If you don't agree, then by all means hit the delete button. Should you choose the latter, then please don't complain when more atrocities committed by radical Muslims happen here in our great Country! And may I add:'Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. But, the Marines don't have that problem' --Ronald Reagan. I have another quote that I would like to add AND.......I hope you forward all this.'If we ever forget that we're One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.' Also by. Ronald Reagan One last thought for the day:In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the Anti-American sentiment and negativity, we should remember England's Prime Minister Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America, he said: 'A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many wantin...and how many want out.'The last thing, by the way, that we should do is to elect a muslim as President of the United States, someone who claims to love America yet,WILL NOT salute the flag, WILL NOT pledge allegiance to our flag, and sat in a church listening to a 'pastor' that HATES America! Are you Freakin' kidding me?Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: 1. Jesus Christ 2. The American G. I. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom. YOU MIGHT WANT TO PASS THIS ON, AS MANY SEEM TO FORGET BOTH OF THEM. AMEN!
Here's something to pause and reflect about. The second worst terrorist attack in our history was also committed by an exetremist between the age of 17 and 40. April 19, 1995!! Oklahoma City. Unfortunately for people who think there is some specific link between Islam and religious violence, Timothy McVeigh was a very devout Christian. So I ask you, is Islam the enemy or religious exetremism in general. Being a student of religious studies, I would have to vote for the latter. I would hope people like Amy W. pause and reflect about that, but their ears are shut. I've got a prayer for you...that our grandchildren never have to live in the same atmosphere of intolerance and fear that we have built around ourselves with regards to religion. That they will never have to think in terms of "us and them." But without action now, this cannot happen. The picture should be removed.
the pictures should be removed because if someone put up pictures that insulted Jesus or Christianity you guys would be screaming for them to be removed. The other problem is the fact that other religions will not make insulting comics involving Jesus because they almost all feel he was a good person and teacher.(most do not think he was anything more than a normal human) If we are going to talk about what religions have caused more people to get killed Christianity would have to be number one on the list. (Spanish Inquisition & The Crusades). The laws in the united states do not prevent anyone from praying in school all they stop is students from being forced to pray or have others religious ideals forced on them. The ten commandments should not be in any government locations because the commandments are part of just a few religions and should not be forced on people that don't believe in them.
If you don't want to see a picture of Muhammed don't look at it. This is the problem with intolerance and intolerant people. Go live somewhere where everyone lives (or is forced to live) by the same values. The US is (still) a free society. Let's keep it that way.

We respect Jesus Christ PBUH and in the same way we expect you to respect our Prophet PBUH
