To avoid being the whole hassle of you know, shit blowing up.
ABCNEWS: "That's where we kind of agree with some of the people who've criticized our show," Stone says, "Because it really is open season on Jesus. We can do whatever we want to Jesus, and we have. We've had him say bad words. We've had him shoot a gun. We've had him kill people. We can do whatever we want. But Mohammed, we couldn't just show a simple image.â€The Pope did mischaracterize Islam with his comment it was, "spread by the sword." This does not take into account how much modern Islamic civilization has advanced. Now Islam is spread from a machine gun mounted in the back of a Toyota pickup. Glad I was able to help clear that up.Other networks took a similar course, refusing to air images of Mohammed — even when reporting on the Denmark cartoon riots — claiming they were refraining because they're religiously tolerant, the South Park creators say.
"No you're not," Stone retorts. "You're afraid of getting blown up. That's what you're afraid of. Comedy Central copped to that, you know: 'We're afraid of getting blown up.'"
Stan : Hey, Muhammad, there is a Toyota pickup full of blood-thirsty Jihadis hanging out of your ass!
Muhammad: No there isn’t!

I guess this is what Rosie was talking about. "Christian Extremists" are just as much of a threat as muslims. Uh huh. I guess CC doesn't quite look at it that way.

I wonder what the Islamic guys do when they are channel surfing and find a fat carpet muncher talking smack about their leader? Probably just turn the channel and watch a football game.
