The cartoons...again

This has been given far more attention than it deserves. Here's the deal. There is such a thing as measured response. You don't burn, kill, and riot over cartoons. Boycott - yes, peacefully demonstrate - yes, Jihad - no. The spectacles in the Middle East over some shitty cartoons makes it so much easier for some in the West to justify killing your people wholesale. Perceptions count and this violence makes you look like a bunch of savages. Save the Jihad for defending your homeland from serious threats.
