South Park Solidarity

Over the past week the creators of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, have received numerous death threats—most notably from the radical New York-based organization, Revolution Muslim—in response to a recent episode of their show in which the Muslim prophet Mohammed appeared.

Regardless of your opinion of this particular episode, South Park, or its creators; this cowardly attack on free speech is completely unacceptable in a free society and must be fought. It is vitally important to demonstrate to those who wish to silence others by means of intimidation and violence that free people will not cower in fear because of the irrational demands of violent extremists.

In response to these terroristic threats, I am hereby announcing Attack of the Individual's unwavering support of Mr. Parker and Mr. Stone as a show of open defiance against those who have issued these threats. While I admit this may not be much, I feel obligated to show my support to the creators of my favorite, little foul-mouthed fourth graders. It is my hope that other bloggers and webmasters will join me in this show of solidarity against radical Islam's latest “Jihad against free speech.”
