Part of treating Muslims equally is treating them like adults.

[geek tragedy]

if we're going to tip-toe around dishonoring their prophet because we're afraid of riots, attacks on embassies, and terrorist attacks, that's not treating them like adults.

Cowering before the temper tantrums only feeds the power of those temper tantrums.

Stop cowering, and eventually the crybabies will stop crying.

The vast majority of Muslims are adults who can look the other way when something pisses us off. They're the ones to whom we should be addressing our behavior, not the backwards revanchists who riot because of a rumor that someone on another continent might do something to offend them.
