It's because Muslims have proven to be unable to control themselves and they WILL blow something up if the episode gets shown.

I know it sounds discriminatory, but when's the last time you've seen a Buddhist monk hijacking an airliner/blowing up a building?

Typical ATOT disclaimer: of course not ALL Muslims are terrorists, but it seems that you don't find ANY Buddhists hijacking planes. Why not?
 
because its popular and socially acceptable to demean and insult christians for their faith, hasn't spread to muslims yet.

Anyone that doesn't include the word extremist in their discussions about terrorist/sucidal muslims are ignorant, imho. I wouldn't take their opinion seriously otherwise- .99999999% of muslims are peaceful folks outside of "standard wars." Whatever that means nowadays.

Hundreds of people in most of the protests. At least seven locations mentioned in this ONE article. Seems to be a larger percentage are extremists than you're indicating; assuming you meant 99.999999% and not 0.99999999% as you typed.

Protests are fine, they're an extension of freedom. I'm fine with people protesting, burning flags, hating america. There are 1.3 billion muslims in the world- trust me, if 99.99% of them were violent you'd be pretty dead by now.

Edit: yah, ok, that was my typo. We're on the same page, I think.

Uh, preventing a person from expressing an idea is censorship, it's pretty binary.

Citizen: "I'd like to tell people I hate the government."
Government: "Super. We've reviewed that and the answer is "say something else."
Citizen: "Damn."

It's actually pretty scary that you don't think the supression of an idea or thought isn't censorship, you really need to re-evaluate that.
im just saying i seriously dont believe its that cut and dry. sure, there are examples of blatant censorship out there but there also many fine examples of free speech. i just dont think censorship is this great monster out in the hills that everyone makes it out to be. i think censhorship exists in many shapes and forms, but just because people dont see/hear what is implied to be seen or hyped up to be seen without all the details, then they shouldnt rush out to yell "censorship!". im just saying that i believe its a word that gets thrown around more times than necessary, and a lot of times without the whole story behind the whole incident.

i mean, you seem pretty set in your ways. and im just stating what i believe. to you censorship it seems like its exactly a definition as described in a dictionary. perhaps even verbatim. to me, its a little more complex than a couple sentences in a book.

Those were some of the protests were cars were burned and people were killed.

I didn't say 99.99% were violent. I said I disagree with your estimate that 99.999999% are NOT violent.
 
Forgetting the numbers...

OBVIOUSLY enough Muslims are violent that now the entire world is afraid to protect free speech. What other religion has a large enough number of violent members to scare the world?

Oh, gee, I don't know...

If we still lived in the times of the Crusades that would be relevant.

Ok, for those who don't get it, here's their point:

They were trying to find a proportional response for the Muhammed cartoons for Christians. They were saying that portraying drawings of Muhammed is to Muslins what Jesus defecating on Bush/US Flag is to Christians!! Yes, both are equally offensive to their beliefs...that's their point! And yet, Comedy Central let them air the Jesus/Bush/Flag bit but not the Muhammed bit. Hence, Comedy Central is a hypocrite.

Well put.
