Way to go Google.

I can't believe that Obama even did this. Instead of giving the Islamic world the finger for attacking one of our most basic rights, he tries to pander to them... the effing ENEMY!

They think if you are not PC, something must be wrong with you.

I remember years ago, south park did a show with Mohammad, called superbest friends. (before 9/11) He was not edited out and no one said anything. Just a few years ago, some newspaper did one and the reporter got death threats.

I believe it was later edited out of that south park on DVD's

I was gong to confirm on netflix but seems Season 5 Episode 3 - The Super Best Friends. is only on disk while the reset of the season is available for instant watch.

Season 5 Episode 3 - The Super Best Friends.-clip

Now I need to check my digital copy and see if I can find the complete unedited.

This was shown and no one blew up an embassy.

Yeah, I remember that episode well. They also had another one that specifically was to address the issue with Muhammed being depicted in a cartoon, which Comedy Central censored, then failed to put in the DVD series. Surpisingly though, I watched a rerun of "Super Best Friends" last year and it was unedited from the original, so I guess it wasn't offensive enough. I dunno, but depicting Muhammed isn't that big of a sin in Islam anyway, and isn't a sin at all if you're not Muslim. They just get worked up about it because they don't understand the concept surrounding freedom of speech.

I understand their reason behind it. I reckon Muhammed didn't want to be worshiped as a false idol. However, in a way they are.

TMF you are correct, there was the other ep.

Just a few years ago when a reporter was getting death threats over a cartoon of Mohammad is when things changed. South part later did an ep threatening to show Mohammad just for a reaction and they put a black box around him.

It was Season 10 Episode 3. Cartoon wars. This may have been 2 part

On the subject of Muslims getting their britches in knots over depictions of Mo, i present to you this cartoon from The Onion. In it I believe the Onion has reached the absolute pinnacle of satire. I must present 1 warning, it can be considered highly offensive to pretty much everyone of any religious faith or of a more sensitive constitution. You have been warned.

Thanks for the warning. However I must point out, no one was bombed because it skipped Mo.

I saw this yesterday. I was going to share it on facebook but it was so vulgar I didn't want folks to have to see it if they didn't want too. As always, spot on Onion.

It was a two-parter and some of the best commentary on the Momo sitiuation as I've ever heard. Plus it bashes Family Guy at the same time. It was poetic.
