The guy is a retard, no debate about that
Whether it being wrong, now that is a value judgement
But I do believe that the reaction was terrible. Just cause most Muslims are Middle Easterners and there is not such thing as freedom of speech over here doesnt mean it doesnt exist elsewhere. Yes, me and every Muslim is sure the guy is wrong, but do you think that by boycotting Danish (some people even boycotted the entire Scandinavia) you are making the right statement? This way, unfortunately, Muslims are just proving that they are easily swayed by the press and media propaganda. Bravo! you boycotted Danish products, sent a crushing jab to the Danish economy, but what difference does that make to the actual perpetrator? NOTHING! what can the Danish state do? they can't punish him! Freedom of speech is a part of their law now isnt it?
What SHOULD have been done was to clarify it, instead of damaging the Danish economy, why didn't anyone try to clarify Islam to the Danish people (the cartoonist in particular) and make him understand that he got the wrong ideas?

i agree with you,
just a little comment :
why do you think freedom of speech may involve making fun of another religion through the drawing of sarcastic pictures of a holy person in that religion?
i don't know whats that called, but one sure thing, it's not freedom of speech !

hey ET, for them Danish peeps, it is, its their land, their laws, the magazine was published in there only, and even the republishing was mainly in Scandinavia where the rules are similiar, i ain't saying its correct, i am saying this is their constitution and he was just taking it to his advantage (in a very sinister  and immoral manner)
and thats the case with most of the West, i am sure you watch The Simpsons, can you count the number of times they took cheap shots at Christianity? too much to count for me lol

He was of course, wrong to insult a religion and should've been punished to some extent. But people were also wrong by evading Danish products. This made no sense since it harms their economy and the Danish economy. And it presents an excessively 'revengeful' image of the ones who avoided Danish products.

Just my opinion. :)
