A formspring question regarding my support for Everybody draw Mohammed day:


I thought you were a pretty safe guy, but then I saw your Mohammed drawing post. Not very nice.

It's not about being nasty, or at least that's how I see it. I'd like to state I in no way support those using this day to be racist or purposely offensive. The reason I support it is because of free speech, and how it'll symbolise not giving into fear and intimidation of muslim extremists that threaten to decapitate cartoonists because they merely drew a picture that depicted their prophet? Mohammed has been depicted for centuries, but only now is it deemed blasphemous, and punishable by death? No. That's something that's not very nice.

See my previous post for my depictions of the Prophet :)
