All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.

Jesus Christ and Murder
Why am I not outraged by this? Why do I not issue death threats and want to cut people's heads off for this?
I'll give you another reason. I am not angered because I think it is a legitimate criticism. It is a common misconception/lie of the Left that George Bush uses his Christian faith as a reason to go to war. He doesn't. However, some Christians do, and thus, the t-shirt depicted is a good criticism, and a good check in a Democracy.
There is quite a discussion going on-- about the cartoons and free speech-- on Flickr. If you are interested, it is in "The Right to Free Speech" Group. (Click on the picture of Mohammed with the two men attacking the man reading.
If you are not signed up for Flickr and wish to sign up., it only takes a minute or two and is free. (scroll down to bottom right)
