(Danish) Court rejects suit over prophet Cartoons
2006-10-26
A Danish court on Thursday dismissed a lawsuit filed by seven Muslim organizations against a newspaper that published contentious cartoons of the prophet Muhammad last year. The City Court in Aarhus said it could not be ruled out that some Muslims had been offended by the 12 drawings printed in Jyllands-Posten, but said there was no reason to assume that the cartoons were meant to "be diminutive toward Muslims."

#9  The court also ordered the plaintiffs to pay Jyllands-Posten's legal costs. Here's to outrageously expensive hourly rates and lots of it.

#8  "The lawsuit said the cartoons depict Muhammad "as belligerent, oppressing women, criminal, crazy and unintelligent, and a connection is made between the Prophet and war and terror."

Let's see, he was a violent, womanizing, women-abusing, incoherent, lying, polygamous, child-abusing, murdering psychopath that started a religion that glorifies and justifies violence, lying, women-abuse, child-abuse, and murder.

Hmmm. I guess I can't see the connection between the Profit, and war and terror, either.

#7  Screw them and the lawyers they rode in on.

Memo to Islam: Get over yourselves and grow some skin or we'll cover this world with sandpaper.

#6  At least the judiciary in Denmark still functions, unlike in US. The way to deal with these idiotic lawsuits, is to throw them out as soon as they appear on the docket, along with some belittling language as to the assinine petitions wasting the valuable time of the court.

#5  The lawsuit said the cartoons depict Muhammad "as belligerent, oppressing women, criminal, crazy and unintelligent, and a connection is made between the Prophet and war and terror."

...and they wonder why it was thrown out?
