In an attempt to "do something" about the fact that people keep re-printing the cartoon about muahammad muslim nations have banded together to come up with a solution. That solution is to take offending nations to court.

It's fabulously funny, that nations who have no issues with burning flags, stomping living presidents in effigy, and desecrating and destroying symbols of other religions (remember when the Taliban blew up an ancient sculpture of Buddha?) simply can't take it when the shoe is on the other foot. One might even recall that Iran hosted an anti-restOfTheWorld cartoon contest to strike back. Yet that's completely acceptable.

''I don't think freedom of expression should mean freedom from blasphemy,'' said Senegal's President Abdoulaye Wade, the chairman of the 57-member Organization of the Islamic Conference. ''There can be no freedom without limits.''

Freedom from blasphemy? Freedom of speech is just that, freedom of speech. It means people can express themselves how they like. This is why muslim nations can't ever support a democracy, because they can't conceive of what a democracy really means. Nor can they understand how multiple cultures can co-exist. Of course, they're also the ones that insist that if you leave their religion you must be put to death.

''Muslims are being targeted by a campaign of defamation, denigration, stereotyping, intolerance and discrimination,'' charged Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, the secretary general of the group.

Hello Pot? This is the Kettle Calling... of course the difference being that in first-world nations we're big enough to take it and keep smiling.

Danield J. Collins, 39, told his children during a visit to his home on Sunday that he wanted them to ''learn how to kill'' and gave his 11-year-old son a knife to do it, according to an affidavit filed in the case.

The boy tried to save the cat by hiding it under a sofa bed and putting ketchup on a knife when Collins went to the bathroom. But when the father realized the cat was not dead, he forced his daughter to hold the knife and then held her hand tightly as he drove the knife into the animal, Muncie police Detective Jami Brown said.

Police said Collins stabbed and strangled the cat himself, and told his son to throw the dead pet in the trash. Officers retrieved the carcass to be used as evidence.

Words cannot describe the hatred I have for this man. All I can say is that I hope Karma runs true. If it does then life has an awful, painful, horrible future for Daniel. I hope the news captures it because when it does I plan on celebrating.
