i had taken part in a protest about four weeks ago at the time that the death threats came out about south park,you know when it was relevant to current events.now the "have you seen this man ?"campaign by gothatfunk was a civil one.even getting some Muslims to participate,not by drawing Muhammad of course ,but participating nevertheless.in short it was a positive event in the end.draw Muhammad day was less so,the spirit was there,but since it had festered for a month a lot of negativity came out.
in the end whole country's had their Internet shut off. reducing the amount of free speech in the world,not defending it.now the bans on certain web sites is temporary ,and when they come back it will all still be there,the Internet is forever as we all know.
i can't help but wonder what the long term consequences will be from all of this?
will this help or hurt our relations with Islamic country's?
will this lead to Islam taking a more moderate path?
can we pull something positive out of this whole debacle?
i sure would like some answers to these questions,and i think that time will tell.
in the end. here is my may nineteenth video explaining why i won't do draw Muhammad day,i had debated this with my self for some time ,and when i saw a video by itsthesuperfly i made up my mind.
to wrap this up ,....I'm not the type of guy to go around travelling on my own turds.
