[quote=Anonymous]I would hate to live in a world where you have to fear everything you say could be considered an insult to extremist Islamists regardless how one might consider it somewhat innocuous. What about David Letterman's comment a few years back that had absolutely nothing to do with the Prophet Muhammad but still garnered a death threat? On August 17, 2011, it was reported that a Muslim militant had posted a death threat against Letterman on a website frequented by Al-Qaeda supporters, calling on American Muslims to kill Letterman for making a joke about the death of an Al-Qaeda leader killed in a drone strike in Pakistan in June 2011.[104] In his show on August 22, Letterman joked about the threat, saying "State Department authorities are looking into this. They're not taking this lightly. They're looking into it. They're questioning, they're interrogating, there's an electronic trail—but everybody knows it's Leno."[/quote]
