At Michigan State University, a professor’s email in response to the Muslim student association’s protest of Danish cartoons has drawn criticism and requests for formal discipline and education.
The professor says,
I am offended not by cartoons, but by more mundane things like beheadings of civilians, cowardly attacks on public buildings, suicide murders, murders of Catholic priests (the latest in Turkey!), burnings of Christian chirches [sic], the continued persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt, the imposition of Sharia law on non-Muslims, the rapes of Scandinavain [sic] girls and women (called “whores” in your culture), the murder of film directors in Holland, and the rioting and looting in Paris France.
One student responded, curiously, by wondering “what the definition of a civilized nation is in his dictionary or in which Muslim countries they trade slaves.” (Apparently, the Muslim activities quoted above needed no response.) He also asked, “If Nazis stage a congregation at the Capitol and 800 anti-Nazi demonstrators can gather, why can’t several Muslims express their feelings about something they think is blasphemous by gathering at the rock and painting it?” Again, one wonders, if counter-demonstrations to Nazi events are appropriate, why strongly-worded counter-emails are not.
