[BRIEF NOTE] On the Danish Cartoons

[rfmcdpei]

The people attacking the cartoons on the grounds that they're blasphemous haven't tried nearly enough to explain why blasphemy--by members, by non-members--shouldn't be permissible, or to justify why threats of violence should spilled out willy-nilly. The people defending the cartoons on the grounds of freedom of speech aren't bothering to address the question of unfair or bigoted stereotyping of Muslims in what looks to be the first Huntingtonian clash of civilizations. No one is bothering to address the other side's points, hence the grand stupidity of the entire affair.

In case you're curious, the cartoons available here. Sorry for sending you over to Michelle Malkin's site, but, well.
