South Park's Episode 201 — the Expurgated Version 1224
Yesterday we mentioned the controversy facing Matt Stone and Trey Parker after last week's South Park (episode 200) depicted Muhammad, founder of Islam, concealed in a bear suit.
Today, penguinman1337 writes "Apparently, all is not well over at Comedy Central. The heavily censored version of episode 201 that aired last night has a lot of people angry, including the show's creators." From their note: "In the 14 years we've been doing South Park we have never done a show that we couldn't stand behind. We delivered our version of the show to Comedy Central and they made a determination to alter the episode. It wasn't some meta-joke on our part. Comedy Central added the bleeps."

Ah, comedy central has made it clear that in response to death threats, they'll censor themselves.
Someone needs to death threat them into releasing the episode.

Many Muslims are in a situation similar to what we went through with Crusades and the like. It's a phase (and they aren't nearly as bad as we were back then, really)
"we" were? Wowbagger, is that you? Personally, I wasn't alive during the Crusades, but I'm glad you were and are here to tell us about it.
In any case, here among us non-immortal people who are currently alive: anyone who is offended by things like this needs to grow the fuck up.

The media needs to learn that about the Muslims as well. They aren't a special group any more than Christians or Atheists or anyone else. If they want to get whiny about people making fun of them the answer needs to be "Shut up, nobody cares," and then go back to making fun.
As an agnostic I'm possibly offended that agnostics weren't specifically mentioned in that statement at all. Maybe offended. I mean, I have no real proof one way or the other.

You're pretty ignorant if you believe they offended "every religion in the world". *cough* Confucianism *cough* Daoism *cough* unimaginable other amounts of religions based off of Native American, African, tribes or other versions of Christianity, Judiasm, etc. etc. etc.
They were offended by not being included.

Not one ball among you all, maybe you deserve what Islam says you have coming. I'm just pissed that it also includes me. I guess I'm flawed in that way....LOL.

I have to say this (in dealing with customers from that part of the world via email/tickets) that you all seem to have an obsession with excessive punctuation.
What is with that?
No, really.

None of our other foreign demographics seem to do that. They all have their own thing, but the Middle East is the only one that comes across as 13-year-old AOL users.

Its not like making fun of religious figures is illegal.
What are the Muslims who are offended by this going to do that the 100s of other people and groups Southpark have offended wont?
Crash a fully loaded 747 full of people into the Comedy Central HQ?

Sorry, the techno-savvy hard-line Muslim can't come to the phone right now. He's out to lunch with the gadget-hoarding Amish electrical engineer.

But they showed that episode in July 2001, and the attacks were in September 2001.
So South Park caused the 9/11 attacks.

Do we ever tell the Pope to STFU because he disagrees with some other Christian Church 1/10th their size?
Give me the chance and I will. I'll tell him to STFU just because, I don't need a reason to.

If they're so damn upset about an episode of southpark....
Do they really expect us to take them seriously when they respond with the kind of images used...?
If they expect to get away with something that close to a death threat they should just shut the fuck up about mohammad already...
