Anybody notice that CNN censored pictures of the cartoons in the background. CNN is falling short of international media. CNN is an embarrassment to the United States.

it only took 15 seconds to gun down this dogs. I personally thank the state of Texas.

[JESUStheATHEIST]

MEDIA FROM AROUND THE WORLD NEED TO STAND TOGETHER AND ACTUALLY SHOW THESE CARTOONS AT THE SAME TIME.
SHAME CNN, SHAME.

I hope the cop never has to buy his own beer ever again.

More troubling is the "security" that were all decked out in military gear.

[burtzland]

Very disappointed in CNN for censoring the art.

[TheJtjensen]

ridiculous misunderstanding of the quran, muhammad wished that one did not glorify a picture, the same wishes of moses, even buddha wished that one did not pay tribute to pictures or statues, good gave you comprehension, please use it.

As much as I hate such "hate-groups", they have the right to organize such events and should have.
I don't like those events only organized to spread hate, but I do support cartoons about any religion to criticize.

:(

I was hoping to see those US special forces tshiiting those Muslims down

[YanhBonet]

Such an odd story, military showing up so quick, the 2 gunmen shot but no info on them, plus how? This story smells fishy

[hordebronyfurness]

Good case of don't fuck with Texas story here. They picked the wrong place to try this crap.

[slosh]

Did any one realize the car they are showing and i assume is the car they shoot out of and was shoot in is only available to the police in the US.

My favorite cartoon drawn in Texas art show was the 2 chalk outlines in the parking lot! Do you see the difference between France and Texas? click clack BANG BANG BANG!

[mikewest]

All the people who organized and participated in this contest have the mentality of eight year old children. "Let's do something that will offend a whole bunch of people because we can!" What a waste of time. This does not defend freedom of speech, it just starts trouble and is hateful and asinine. Grow up and try to do positive things with your time and energy.

[MarzJonp]

If we can blaspheme someone's religious figure, can we do the same for the Christian religious figure as well?

[blueone]

Good job defending that event. Btw dont blurr those images, i wanna see those toons and laugh at that poop moha.
