I can not recall a time when we all had to be so careful as not to offend.

But they were NOT threatened.

They just imagined they would be..... pre-pre-emptive response?

Muslims need to get over themselves and their religion. Sorry but it needs to be said.

So if the books is about the cartoons, and the cartoons are no longer in the book, doesn't the overall meaning of the book cease to mean anything?

I believe that those cartoons should be reprinted in every book, every paper, by every institution in the civilized world, until the people who would commit violence over them, become so inured to them, they realize that it doesn't matter what others say about their barbaric religion. It only matters that they aren't being forced to convert to a religion that doesn't espouse murdering others.

It's amazing that a group of terrorist thugs can cause Yale to change how they behave in the United States because they are afraid.

Is there any other groups of people we have to be soo worried about offending? Muslims need to get over themselves and their religion. Sorry but it needs to be said." At the very least stop going to places that have such freedoms of speech. Bad on you Yale.

I'm confident Obama will tell Yale they acted stupidly.

It's bush 's alma mater :)

Surely Yale has nothing to fear from the "religion of peace"?

And meanwhile, the Harvard Crimson newspaper "accidentally" ran an advertisement purporting that the Holocaust was a fabrication. Looks like the elitist "Ivy League" may be dumbing down faster than the rest of the US.

Just chaps my hide how those muslims think they can tell everybody what to do, and kill those who don't comply...

Yale should be ordered to relocate to Saudi Arabia or allow freedom of speech and press and all that other stuff America is based on. Cowtowing to Muslims because of this is ridiculous but they can surely have an American flag burning at whim without offending.
