And I am not fucking kidding. Blowing up some buildings and killing a few thousand people is small potatoes. They have now obliterated the first amendment to our constitution, a much greater long term threat than any physical damage they could ever perpetrate in their wildest dreams. They now effectively control what the free world can say and watch and hear. And they have done a damn good job of it! Usually if I want to see a SP ep that isn’t yet cleared for contractual reasons, I can still find it through illegitimate channels on the internet. I can’t find episode 200 anywhere. It has been totally expunged from history, as far as I can tell. For the record, Mohammed was a child molesting sheep fucker. His followers are in the stone age. They are a cancer that should be stricken from the planet with radiation therapy. And a big Suck Satan’s Gonorrhea Infested Cock to Cartoon Network for knuckling under to these stone age barbarians. How much more are we gong to take? ---

Actually it’s cowards and political correctness that has done the damage. People should be prepared to fight back against this sort of thing, but they aren’t - not because they’re afraid of Muslims, but because they are afraid of being branded racist. Anyway aren’t you going to return to your other pit thread? ---

I can’t find episode 200 anywhere. I’m afraid you lost me here. What do you mean by “illegitimate channels”? Are you griping because you can’t find an illegal version of a show you want to watch? Or because the legal version is taking a long time to clear for contractual reasons that are complicated by the intolerance issues? Or what? ---

Anyone know what Matt and Trey’s feeling are? My perusal of the news regarding this debacle doesn’t come up with much. CN’s line seems to be that they are protecting them, but are they actually protecting themselves? I don’t feel this is so much a PC issue as actual fear. CN doesn’t want their headquarters bombed, IMHO. Matt and Trey seem to be the types who would go to the mat (pun not intended0 on something like this. Their corporate masters? Not so much. But I do feel the danger to our society is much more real than any terrorist act could ever be. Blow up a building and some people die, and we have to take off our shoes at the airport. Halt expression, and you have damaged the foundations of freedom in a more fundamental way. ---

Or because the legal version is taking a long time to clear for contractual reasons that are complicated by the intolerance issues? Or what? No, the episodes in question have been yanked by CN, possibly forever. Not only that, usual channels that retransmit, albeit illegally, South Park episodes don’t seem to have them up either. I don’t mind waiting for contractual clearance to watch episodes, although that is kind of silly, but not being able to watch them EVER? If I were Matt and Trey, I would be looking to get out of my contract with CN, and maybe just distribute over the internet from now on. Gutless corporations + religious fanatics = bad fucking news for freedom of expression. ---

> [@Stan\_Shmenge](#): > > Gutless corporations + religious fanatics = bad fucking news for freedom of expression. Sure. But this hasn’t in fact “obliterated” your constitutional amendment, and I would argue therefore that it isn’t worse than 9/11. I think urging genocide on more than a billion people, however, is. Were you always this much of a dick or is this a recent innovation? ---

Dude, it’s not Islam. It’s _ **Scientology** _. Those white skinned motherfuckers like Tom Cruise and Isaac Hayes are what’s ruining our freedom. Scientologists took Chef. I can not forgive them for that. I ask you: Who is going to suck on the salty chocolate balls of freedom? WHO IS GOING TO SUCK ON THE SALTY CHOCOLATE BALLS OF FREEDOM?!!! ---

Comedy Central acted like chickenshits, but this is not a Constitutional issue. Religious and social fanatics probably have less influence over what goes on TV than ever, which is why some of them have to resort to death threats to get anybody to listen. It’s wrong that they do that, but that’s what these fuckers are like. ---
