On this May 20th, the first official 'Draw Muhammad day', what purpose does it really serve? Upon a little more reading online I find(though I don't know about the authenticity) that it is reported that the one who officially started it according to the article has decided not to participate(isn't that kind of silly?), and also that according to another reference through cartoon there are already historic drawings of him in older Muslim religious art. Now of course when I first heard about South Park actually getting censored for it I was all wtf?! Like any other fan of the series, but after that I started thinking into it more. People talk of attacks on freedom of speech because of the threats, but this one will only be another in a long line that we've already allowed through our entertainment media. It also seems like kind of a needless act; Of course you can do such a thing just to say you can, but so what? I apologize to any fellow artists who might have thought I'd participate, but I just don't see how it helps now that I really think about it. Anyways, feel free to share your own thoughts on this whole draw Muhammad day thing in this journal, and good day ^.^/
