Everybody Draw Mohammed Day

So according to what I’m hearing, today is “Everybody Draw Mohammad Day”, a day of support for the First Amendment in reaction to censoring of the South Park creators who were prevented from drawing the prophet Mohammad by their employers at Comedy Central last month.

According to Fox News, opponents of the day are boycotting Facebook because of the social media’s inaction to shut down the organizing going on there.

A Facebook spokesman told FoxNews.com it has no plans to censor any of the pages associated with the campaign or the counter-campaign, though threats will be removed.

Our buddy, El Marko, has a quick history of the issue with photos and narrative.

Another of our blogging friends, Zombie, has a very long post at Pajamas Media celebrating “The New Free Speech Movement“.

Me? I’ll be drawing Mohammad all day between blogging and the paying job. Any Jihadists willing to scale my mountain and cross through the interlocking fields of fire are welcome to protest and threaten me.
