U.S. Muslim group warns South Park creators that they may be killed


“A U.S. Muslim group has issued a dire Internet “warning” to creators of the satirical animated TV show “South Park” over a depiction of the Prophet Mohammad in a bear outfit.

“We have to warn Matt (Stone) and Trey (Parker) that what they are doing is stupid and they will probably wind up like Theo Van Gogh for airing this show,” said a posting on website RevolutionMuslim.com.

The website posted a graphic photo of slain Dutch filmmaker Theo Van Gogh, who was killed in 2004 by an Islamic militant over a movie he made that accused Islam of condoning violence against women.”

Question: do we need to tolerate this? Do we need to tolerate people threatening to kill someone for creating and showing something they don’t like? Where is the outcry over “hate mongering?” Where is the outrage?
