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
