Paludan, and Harris et al wanting to nuke the Middle East: these things
are clearly and obviously racist.
Drawing a caricature, that one's a lot more nuanced. If someone spray
painted it on a mosque, that's a hate crime. If they published it
in a paper: that's unkind, maybe it's even unacceptable. I can
agree with that. But it doesn't warrant death. It shouldn't be against the
law. We've fought hard to rid ourselves of blasphemy laws.
Where do you draw the line? Because clearly there are lines to be drawn here.
I'm the guy who calls the Christian god an abuser. If I could draw,
I'd love to draw some caricatures of Christianity, because that well runs deep
and I can imagine some really creative ones.
