Editorial: Why should we Boycott Facebook?
If you may recall in 2006 the Muslim community world over was in uproar over a few sets of controversial cartoons published in the Danish Newspaper on Prophet Muhammed [PBUH] it resulted in large scale riots in many cities. The journalists from Jyllands Posten remained under a serious threat and the Muslims failed to see the pun in their attempt to ridicule their prophet. The argument even then, freedom of speech does not mean that you irk and irritate a religion under the garb of freedom of expression.
The Idea to make funny cartoons of Prophet Muhammed [PBUH] came from a Seattle Cartoonist Molly Norris who thought of this campaign in reaction to Comedy Central’s decision to censor an episode of South Park with depictions of Prophet Muhammad [PBUH] last week, to say in an interview to a radio show in Seattle that “as a cartoonist, I just felt so much passion about what had happened.. it’s a cartoonist’s job to be non-PC.”
Jon Wellington an activists in support of her cause has created a facebook page called “Everybody Draw Muhammed Day”.
The Group Page Link: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=120015854691310&v=wall
The introduction to the group is listed as a snarky response to Muslim bloggers who “warned” Comedy Central about an episode of South Park showing the Prophet Mohammed wearing a bear suit, one Seattle cartoonist, who calls laughter her form of “prayer,” is asking artists all over the world to create depictions of Mohammed on May 20, then submit the images to a Facebook page she set up. Speaking on a Seattle radio show on Friday, cartoonist Molly Norris said she announced her idea as a way of countering the fear exhibited by Comedy Central in censoring episode 201 of South Park.
As a post script they talk about the potential hate speech but try to tip toe around the problem to say its more a teach-them-a-lesson type of group
PS: We are not trying to slander the average muslim , its not a muslim/islam hatepage. We simply want to show the extremists that threaten to harm people because of their Mohammed depictions, that we’re not afraid of them. That they can’t take away our right to freedom of speech by trying to scare us to silence.
It interesting if you hear her Interview, when asked if she would make fun of the Holocaust – she responds “no, there is nothing funny about it” what hypocrisy.
Get an idea about those hyprocrats:
