And Stuff Like That: Reloaded

Suck It Up, Saddam.

I'm a little concerned about all the news lately of Muslims getting offended by various sources that make any kind of comment that could be interpreted as derogatory. How long and how much have Christians, Jews, or other religious folk been persecuted, belittled, offended, or otherwise maligned in the history of civilization? I've been criticized as a Christian. Jews have been persecuted countless times, most notably during the holocaust. It sucks, but we go on.

That said, insulting Islam extremists is somehow more than we can bear being offended about -- and mainstream Muslims are the ones complaining! That's like me complaining if someone makes fun of the KKK.

Jihadists need to be made fun of. Ku Klux Klan members need to be made fun of, just as Dave Chappelle did in the very first episode of his show. What is wrong with that?
