Funny Stuff: Draw Muhammad Day A Success!!!!
I did not make this poster below, but I thought it was worthy of Feral Jundi. There are tons of awesome drawings and posters that folks put up over at the Facebook group, and I am sure they are busy just processing all of them. This little Facebook group is also pissing off all the right people and bravo to the creators. And hey, I think every day should be Draw Muhammad Day just so these dorks get the message. lol –Matt

Pakistan blocks YouTube, Facebook
By Sami Zubeiri
May 20,2010
ISLAMABAD — Pakistan on Thursday condemned caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed that appeared on Facebook, blocking access to the networking site and YouTube in a growing backlash over Internet “sacrilege.”
Students and Islamist activists protested against the drawings and denounced the West in an expression of outrage that sparked comparisons with riots across the Muslim world in 2006 over drawings published in European newspapers.
The caricatures appeared on Facebook after a private user asked people to submit drawings of the Prophet Mohammed in an online competition that sparked fury in conservative Muslim Pakistan.
“We strongly condemn the publication of blasphemous caricatures of our holy Prophet on Facebook,” foreign ministry spokesman Abdul Basit told reporters in the capital Islamabad.

Call To Action: Everybody Draw Mohammad Day–May 20th!
The drawing below that Lars Vilks did, as well as the Mohammad in a bear suit that the guys at South Park/Comedy Central put together, are two prime examples of the kind of stuff that really winds up these extremists. What’s better, is now there is a holiday being promoted on Facebook that declares May 20th as ‘Everybody Draw Mohammad Day’! I love it. And check out how many friends that page has? lol
All I have to say to Al Qaeda and company is that you better sell some more drugs and get some more donations from your rich muslim friends for all of the bounties you are going to have to post, because you are about to get an onslaught of funny Mohammad drawings. –Matt

Swede cartoonist Lars Vilks attacked
May 12, 2010
Swedish cartoonist Lars Vilks, who sparked controversy by drawing Prophet Mohammed with the body of a dog, was on Tuesday attacked while giving a lecture at a university, police said.
“The man was sat in the first row and suddenly he rushed at me. He punched me in the head and I lost my glasses,” said Vilks, adding that at the very most he was “a little bruised”.
Police said around 250 people were present at the time of the attack at the university of Uppsala, north of the Stockholm.

From the Facebook Page
In 2005, more than 100 people were killed in “cartoon riots”. Instead of speaking out against this insanity, people of the free world were bullied into the corner and decided that it would be better to appease Islamists with self-censorship under the threat of violence, since there is certainly plenty of evidence that they are more than willing to deliver on their threats. “If you dare portray Mohammad or criticize Islam” – you can end up dead.
The message was clear – and we were willing to give up our rights and forsake our values under the threat of violence from a group of thugs.
In 2010, we reached a new low when Comedy Central has decided to remove any mention of the name “Mohammad” from an episode of South Park, again as result of death threats from people who claim to be followers of a “religion of peace”.
