It's May 20, Everybody Draw Mohammed Day.
Pakistan, that noble place of freedom, has shut down Facebook and YouTube, lest the jihadists get their panties in even more of a knot.
(How come it's ok for jihadists to plant car bombs in marketplaces, and send homicide bombers into pizza parlors, but it's not ok to publish cartoons of a religious figure?
Maybe because they are totalitarian religious nutters, and we're not?)
It appeared that Facebook itself, that paragon of free speech, got cold feet after the EDM Day passed 80,000 subscribers. They pulled it down, only to restore it an hour later.
Sure makes this ole' boy want to spend more minutes surfing around their swamp...
OldSouth surfed a bit for some images, many of which can't possibly be shared--check out the Everybody Draw Mohammed Day Facebook page to see for yourself.
But this video clip captures the spirit--humorous and to the point. OS especially giggled at Mohammed sugar cookie, and Jabba the Hut in the turban bit.
Enjoy, and thank Heaven we still have the right of free speech, at least this week.
