Stuff Muslims Don’t Like: #3 Cartoons
The sharia creeps in Canada are making noise again. The Religion of Perpetual Outrage strikes anew. As usual, they’re up in arms over a truth-telling cartoon–which makes this a natural entry for our Stuff Muslims Don’t Like Series. Because if there’s one thing they really, really don’t like, it’s Western cartoons that force them to look at themselves in the mirror:
Police in Halifax are investigating a complaint about a political cartoon that some members of a local Islamic group claim is a hate crime.
The cartoon, published April 18 in the Chronicle Herald newspaper, depicts a woman in a burka holding a sign that reads, “I want millions,” and she says, “I can put it towards my husband’s next training camp.”
The cartoon by Bruce MacKinnon is a reference to Cheryfa MacAulay Jamal, a woman from Nova Scotia whose husband was arrested in 2006 in an anti-terrorism raid. Qayyum Abdul Jamal was released from jail after charges against him were stayed on April 15.
Zia Khan, director of the Centre for Islamic Development in Halifax, said the cartoon goes beyond what can be considered free speech.
“You would not put a native American Indian with feathers and say I need money in order to cull white people’s heads. You wouldn’t do that. This would be libelous,” he said. Khan’s group called police on April 21. He said the group also filed a complaint with the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission.
Under the Criminal Code of Canada, a hate crime is committed to intimidate, harm or terrify an entire group of people to which the victim belongs. The victims are targeted for who they are, not because of anything they have done. Dan Leger, the Herald’s director of news content, said the cartoon does not take aim at all Muslims.
“The whole purpose of that cartoon was to comment on the outrageous demands of this individual for compensation long before any hearing into her case had ever been held,” he said.
In an interview with the Herald before the cartoon ran, Jamal said she wanted to sue the federal government for what her family has gone through and told the reporter, “I want millions,” Leger noted. “[MacKinnon] depicted her exactly the way she looks and used her own words, and that’s the genius of cartooning that you’re able to do that,” he said.
Indeed, the cartoonist is depicting Jamal exactly how she looks. Not as some bigoted steretype, but as an exact representation.

The outrage that NEVER ENDS.
Keeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllll THEM!
*ahem*
Well, it IS Friday. Time for the Religion of Destruction to riot again.
Beheadings and riots in 3….2…1….
I find thier desire to cut off my head offensive. Who can I sue?
Start with “rage boy” if you can find him.
“beyond what can be considered free speech”
um, no it isn’t …
“You wouldn’t do that. This would be libelous,” he said. Khan’s group called police on April 21. He said the group also filed a complaint with the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission.”
um, it’s NOT libel, ’cause if it was you’d go to criminal court; not the kangaroo hrcs
/oh, that’s right you KNOW it’s not libel and you know you’d you’d get yer ass kicked in criminal court, so thank baal for those hrcs, huh?
//the steyn case is killing ‘em, this will simply add fuel to the fire …
cpodug, the local gay bar?
How can a cartoon be a hate crime?
Don’t the police in Halifax have better things to do?
sonof, actually probably down at the local hog-calling contest.
Cartoon reads “Training Camp” whose to say that she isn’t speaking about Soccer Training???
I am so sick of Muslims I could spit.
The religion of peace, eh?
This is the typical Islamic affront. it is really an attempt to intimidate and silence protests, – and prevent the truth of this rather ugly religion from reaching the general public in the Western World.
cpodug, now i see, he is a closet gay islamic hog caller with anger control issues, a werid sexual hangup over the koran, and a deathly fear of razors. Back to the cartoon…. I can tell she is a cute genocidal maniac from her sexy glasses.
If a Muslim cuts off a Christians head, that’s serving Allah.
If a Christian draws a cartoon of a Muslim, that’s a hate crime.
There must be some logic in that someplace, but I can’t see it.
At the risk of sounding politically incorrect, I don’t think American Indians have “cull[ed] white people’s heads” for at least a century. They realize it’s 2008 – not 1508, as many radical Islamists think it is.
And those, ladies and gentlemen, are the seven most frightening words to anyone who loves freedom.

Well, don’t spit on a Koran, or you could lose your head.
#15 – Political correctness = Thought control/thought crime. It is a way of enforcing a government sanctioned set of rules for what is the “correct” way to think. It is the most dangerous form I thought control since stalin and mao.
Tre #16, I don’t think that spitting on a Koran (that’s in a toilet) will do much harm….just saying.
Let’s flush a few korans down the toilet and make sure Time Magazine gets some pictures this time. It’s Friday and I haven’t seen any Muslim riots yet. This should help them out.
Chuck, a hint, rip it up BEFORE you flush it, If you just flush it, It clogs the pipes. As john said…just saying…
englishqueen01: “And those, ladies and gentlemen, are the seven most frightening words to anyone who loves freedom.”
I nominate you for
employeeposter of the month.I wonder what Rev. Al would look like in a burka? (sp? funny, spell check doesn’t recognize that word?)

The not so reverand sharpton in a burka.

Is it a hate crime to make fun of an entire culture that works so hard to be feared and hated? For that matter, is it a hate crime to hate anyone that wants desperately to be hated?
Whether it is the desired effect or not, “Rage Boy” is becoming the icon of Islam to many “infidels.”
I have just about had it with all the victim cults in the world such as the illegal invaders, oppressed blacks, and especially muslims. All you do by trying to take away my rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is push the day closer and closer that I and my neighbors will rise up and stop this crap once and for all and we ain’t coming to conduct a dialogue either.
as Orwell said, some pigs are more equal than others….
ooops the use of the words *pigs* is a *hate crime* to the muslims….
If we made a Rage Boy plushie, would that be consider a hate crime? Would there be riots?
They’d made great gifts for all the jihadists kids that are being trained :/
And this is why hate crime legislation is bad. A number of years ago I had a discussion with my left wing sister regarding hate crime legislation (after the Matthew Shepherd murder). My position regarding that case is that executing those animals for murder is not going to be any different if you tack on a hate crime penalty. Her answer was, it would cover the lesser crimes based on hate, such as beating, vandalism, speech etc.
I told her that would lead to the thought police and now we have Canada criminalizing cartoons.
Now we don’t even discuss politics.
Boomer, There was no risk of that while america was keep fat and happy. Not so much any more.
BEING ISLAMIC IS A HATE CRIME.
#21- brooklyn red, he’d look like calypso louie before adkins.
bobble head rage boy
If they spent as much time and energy into producing wind farms and solar arrays as they do flying into a fit of tazmanian devil like rage then half the worlds energy needs would be met in the first few months alone.
P.S. Well said EQ, if we don’t stop this hate crimes PC crap soon we will just be the next in line behind France, Great Britain, Canada, and most of Europe in being destroyed from within as sharia creeps. I wonder how all these liberals pushing for such legislation will look in their new burkas?
right4life, “ooops the use of the words *pigs* is a *hate crime* to the muslims….”
Wrong, it is the accepted term for Police, or the parents of infidels…
juss sayin.
Funny cartoon.
walterc re:27,
“And this is why hate crime legislation is bad.” what’s the problem? I hate crime, you hate crime, we all hate crime… Like Bob Dole said, “it is time we start addressing the root cause of crime… the criminal.”
I deport thee

I love the cartoons. I wish i had photoshop i would do some. If they can not take a joke…. well nuke em
bobble head works too!
In fact, we could have a whole line of toys, coloring books, everything! Imagine the possibilities! Food too!
The Allah Ahk-Fudge-Bar, the perfect ice cream treat for those hot desert days!
The possibilities are endless LOL
It might be easier to come up with a list of things the ROP DOES like – and it would be a whole lot shorter, too.
abstractmind,re: “In fact, we could have a whole line of toys, coloring books, everything!”
I think the Saudis beat you to it…
What muslims like.

Hmmmm…. actualy…
Can the Koran itself be cited as a Hate Crime? It certainly says some very hateful things… against women, gays, and infidels.
It does not allow religious freedom…
Any Canadians wanna take this to the HRC board?
Jihadi dolls. Just like GI joes except with a small plastic explosive suicide belt!!! Buy the Jihadi car, comes with even MORE C4!!! Perfect for instruction or just blowing the hell out of the local kufair!!!
Simple question for libs.
Libs, you believe it is not a crime to burn the American flag.
Do you believe that me taking a piss on a Koran, pouring lighter fluid on it, and burning it should be treated likewise?
sonofdy, exploding dolls? I think the Russians have the patent, well OK the VC had the licensing concession… exploding toy cars might be an option, but wait till Goose Creak is settled…
LOL, as a kid I got in BIG trouble for torching my sisters Barbie, Ken, and Barbies Jeep by dousing it with lighter fluid…
guess I shoulda converted?
Difference…could we put them in English? LOL
Nope, Sorry. Muslims don’t like Barbie Dolls.
I am not a liberal but i think we should do it to the book and to islamic terrorist also. (the burn and peeing on) Only thing i would worry about would be the stink from the fire cause they never bathe and use thier hand for toliet paper
abstractmind… Difference…could we put them in English? LOL
Uhhh, you did read the blogs on “supporting” universities, no ?
Again, the Saudies beat you to it.
When will it occur to Muslims that most people in this Country see them as a culture of 5th century buffoons and, in many cases, mindless savages, who take themselves and the Kill-ran way too seriously? Let me express how much I care about what Muslims find offensive. _________________. That much.
libocrat, I’m not a “lib” as you so eloquently put it, but I’ll take a crack.
I assume that you are asking if a statute making the action which you describe in your post a crime would ultimately be deemed unconstitutional as impinging protected speech under the 1st amendment. The wording of the statute obviously is key, but I think if you took such action in an effort to communicate your disdain for Islam and were prosecuted under the statute in question, you would ultimately win on a 1st amendment theory. Similar logic with burning the flag. If you were simply attempting to harass or intimidate Muslims by your actions, then I think you lose. It’s all about intent.
Is it a bad thing I used to play with plastic army men and gasoline? I mean I dug out trenches and everything.
Hate crime is a bullsh*t term used to squeeze Political Correctness into “paid for” leftist legislation to address some phony self declared victimology…all liberals are a victim of one thing or another in their peculiar way of thinking….So therefor, “we need another law” and another to fix this…..or that…The only true victims are the ones victimized by liberals being liberals…Now Muslims have learned how to be victims, too… Especially one who has her very own cartoon…Damn !! What horrendous treatment…it’s almost like….uh…almost like….a beheading….on You Tube, yet…My God….ooops….My Allah
nope, that one got by me. i stand corrected.
You gotta get up early in the morning to beat them Saudis…
Apparently…and i thought 5am was early
Looks like i’ll have to work on that.
Dakine, Thank you sir/madame. Let me see if I understand your moronic tripe.
It’s FINE and DANDY to burn the flag as long as your intent is good??
You do know that you’re no real bright, dontcha???
libocrat, Dakine did not write the law(s), Congress did…
It is fine and dandy to burn the falg as long as you wrap yourself up in it first. Soaking yourself in gas helps as well. You also have to be playing DISCO INFERNO in the background, and be injesting drugs at the time. I think thats even in some sort of federal code….

Terrorism by lawsuit again. This is such a non-event that it is apparent that this is a frivolous issue.
That character had glasses just like the person it was intended. Unless they all have glasses and ask for millions of dollars, I don’t see how they can say this cartoon is a ‘hate crime’.
I wonder if they can consider the lawsuit and threat to pursue this as a ‘hate crime’ a ‘hate crime’.
It must be a great time to be a lawyer.
I agree. Punishing someone who murders in a robbery different than punishing someone who murders someone because that person is a member of a given race is insane. In both cases the victim is dead. What does the reason behind the crime matter one bit? Its murder either way. But once again, liberal morons try to score brownie points with the victimization crowd; by once again supporting a law that hasnt an iota of substantive or logical merit to it. It just sounds good.
ThackerAgency…
All is mute. Positive identification can not be made…
Which means it’s all about thought. Ergo, it’s a THOUGHT CRIME.
You cannot *prove* intent unless someone explicitly says “I’m taking a leak on the Koran to intimidate and harrass Muslims.” Projecting intent on someone’s actions based solely on conjecture and opinion is a violation of the basic right to free speech (not to mention a right to a fair trial and equal protection under the law). Or can we just call peeing on the Koran an “artistic display” and get away with it?
Otherwise, we need to haul the “artist” who created the “Piss Christ” before the a human rights commission for hate crimes.
(Off topic) Listening to the radio at work – I just won $100 in a contest! Yeah, since I can’t tell anyone here at work I thought I’d share with you.
Yipee! (/Off topic)
Careful englishqueen…, sins are based on intent too…
Ok, I haven’t even finished reading the article, I just had to stop here and say this guy’s analogy is ridiculous. You probably wouldn’t even see a cartoon of an American Indian wearing feathers talking about culling white people’s heads, because (as far as I know) not many American Indians go around with feathers on their heads any more, aside from special occasions; Muslim women still wear burkas as a rule. American Indians stopped scalping folks quite awhile ago; angry Muslims continue to slay infidels to this very day.
Moral relevancy has become a thorn in the side of common sense.
Looks like you’re buying a round for us after work
I’ll take a Guiness Stout, please
grats
The thing I love the best about the Lib/Muslim LOVE CONNECTION is how the LEFT stands up for Muzlim womens rights and dignity.
Get em libs!!
But that Judge knows your intent. Congress and your local PC police don’t.
Keep the cartoons coming!
Touche!
Muslims don’t like birthdays either.
Can I get about twenty-five of my birthdays back?
Muslims don’t like: Betty Boop, Jessica Rabbit…
Boomer:
agreed.

I know something they don’t hate.
A pedophile false prophet!!!
libocrat, let’s go very slowly now shall we, because it’s pretty clear that you’re more than a few cards short of a full deck.
Question 1: Is burning the US flag or burning or “pissing” on a Koran protected speech under the 1st amendment of the US Constitution (a document you may want to have someone read to you at some point)?
Answer: Generally speaking (in my professional opinion), yes. The outcome would be different if the flag or Koran had been stolen or if the act was intended to harass or intimidate rather than communicate a political message.
Question 2: Do I personally approve of flag burning or the destruction of religious materials as a means of political communication? Answer: No.
Question 3: Is libocrat a dim witted tool? Answer: Yes…of the highest order.
If you see flag burning as a pressing issue, I would suggest that you get started on working to get the Constitution amended.
eq, “intent” is an element in many, if not most, crimes. Take, for example, the difference between 1st degree murder and manslaughter.
maybe he should’be depicted the figure in a toilet…
I ask this: would the outrage against the artist been the same or worse?…
Give me fatwas, or give me vest bombs!
#77 Dakine
That wasnt his question. Perhaps it would behoove you to read it again.
Oh, here we go again….
Libocrat, let’s just do it in the name of “ART”. I’ll drink some beer so they can have recycled alcohol on it too.
feebie, I answered what I think was his direct question in my question 2, and he was indirectly asking my question 1. Why would you defend this tool anyway?
Dakine:
I wasnt defending him. I am not him, but I don’t believe that was his question.
PS.
(he’s funny…you’re not)
Get it?
MM,
I hope you have at least 300 of these topics on , ‘stuff muslims don’t like’, cause I could read these for a year. ( I do know the source is truly unlimited, but we have some limits)
Halifax isn’t know for its tolerance. One of my friends converted to Islam, who was a white Canadian. She faced all kinds of discrimination from ARABS because she didn’t wear the hijab and because she was white they thought she was a whore.
Now, I realize that to liberals, this is acceptable because they don’t believe that someone can be racist towards whites just because whites have, well, quite frankly, successfully colonized much of the world and beat everyone else at their own game, but it can and does happen.
Remember, orthodox Islam ie the Religion of Perpetual Outrage ie sharia law is all one and the same: An Arab-Berber male superiority cult.
LOL sounds like a Serenity quote. “River, we’re not trying to tell them what to think. We’re just trying to show them how.”
I don’t know about this one. I think I have to agree with the Muslims about it. In that cartoon she’s showing way too much skin. They should be outraged.
Seems that we need a northern fence too to complement our southe… wait didn’t we pay for that already?
(deep hatred)
Why is she wearing glasses that don’t cover her eyes? Would they do much good? Not a pressing issue, but odd.
Hey Boomer, #24, Where and When? Just sayin … seems to me it’s time to get started. I’m sick to death of PC. I’m sick to death of whiners coming to my country for freedom, then trying to take my freedoms away from me.
I’m suprised that Muslims haven’t insisted that the cartoon character be beheaded yet! It’s an obvious affront to Allah for a woman to ask for anything, as they’re merely chattel as far as Sharia is concerned. They aren’t allowed to own property.
Well feebie, if you think that clown is funny, there’s not much else to say. Thought you had more class than that.
Dakine. Don’t talk to me about class.
You are still my favorite troll, baby…
“Behead those that insult islam” —- Sure looks like a hate crime to me! I want something done about it.
What strikes me most is the hypocrisy of Muslims who demand payment for hate speech when Islam itself revels in hate speech. Muslims LOVE hate speech, at least when they’re the ones doing the hating and speaking.
They also play us for fools when they use our tolerance to extend their intolerance.
Zia Khan–another proud graduate of the lgm/Rusty School of Bad Analogies.
Someone should ask Mr Obama what he thinks of this kind of ‘speach control’.
Well, feebie, at least I have that going for me, which is nice.
