    Default Re : Religious intolerance or freedom of speech.

    Looks like the French Muslims kept a pragmatic point of view on the issue. Many people condamned the pics as being unrespectful, but no manifestations with slogans such as 'France is the cancer and Islam the answer', no people crying and asking for the heads of the people who drawn the pics.
    They'll apparently sue France Soir (the newspaper that released the pics) for provocation. While I hope they'll lose the trial, I think they kinda shown they aren't the brainwashed morons we can see everyday on TV, and earned my respect, for what it's worth.

    More likely too. Muslims will point to it as evidence of the 'need' for such a restriction on free speech, and the UN, eager to appease, will try to oblige.
    Any support for that claim, or is it some random thoughts from someone who hates the UN ?
