The Lounge / Re: South Park censors the word "Muhammad" over threat

Is it right that they're popular enough to be threatened by a religious group?

nope. Like I said, the show sucks. But I don't think any program should censor a word because of a threat.

It's hypocritical. "Fuck terrorists! Freedom of speech!" "but we will censor something when one threatens us."

The Lounge / South Park censors the word "Muhammad" over threat
« on: Thursday, April 22, 2010, 14:51:01 PM »
Now I do not typically like South Park. As a matter of fact, most of the episodes are just stupid as hell. But I watched the new episode last night and it was the second part of a two parter. I noticed that there was a difference. In the first episode, they censored the image of Muhammad but they freely used the word Muhammad. But in the second episode, the word was bleeped. Apparently it was because of a threat a Muslim group made against the makers of South Park.

Was it right to censor the word and give in to the threat?

Ads updated with a management module. They should be at the bottom of the page (proper size this time) as well as under child boards. I'm not sure what the latter means. Could someone provide screenshots?

This is the ad under child boards.

Fission is what we use now. Fusion is much safer but we do not have the means to collect the energy produced from fusion. Some say that if we find a way to get the energy from fusion then all of our energy problems will be solved.

I'm not even going to comment on the nuclear power aside from saying that people who are for it aren't thinking about the future.

I actually want to hear your reasoning for this. Not that I disagree with you, I just want to see why you think it is bad.

This doesn't fit in photography, digital, or music and movies, so I just posted it here.

I don't consider myself a good drawer; actually, I suck at drawing. But I was surprised at how good this actually turned out.

I didn't bother doing the ground because it was 2am and I wanted to go to bed.

Killaman has had a total logged in time of 7 days 14 hours. Spanky has spent 10 days logged into this forum, but he's the admin that's understandable. But why does Killaman have so many logged hours? I have 4 days 15 hours, and I was the second member to register here, Spanky being the first.

Killaman has to leave his browser open with an auto refresh running.  :)

My browser is open, a lot. And I'f I'm doing something else, I'll just occasionally check the site. That kind of surprises me though, since I'm basically not on my computer much until after 6pm. You also have to remember that it is in 15 minute increments. At least I think it is. So If I came here for 30 seconds, it counts a 15 min. and so on.

For example, I've been watching the Red Wing's game for the past two hours and my browser was open on this site the entire time.  :D

north Korea can already hit seol with artillery and missiles, they prob wont even need to go to war, just hit there cities till they crumble, north Korea has the military south Korea has the economy, you cant say a south Korean warship can be sunk with total loss of life from trained sailors and put it down as an accident if south Korea said north Korea sunk it people would demand a war south Korea couldn't win. even with us troops south Korea is just a puppet

the reason china cant attack is they simply done have the means to transport there some 2-3 million strong army quickly enough and there fleets are aging (although they have a few new destroyers recently built) they have 1 nuclear sub but plenty of older subs, less then five thousand active aircraft.... thats why they wont attack, except

according to the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists and the SIPRI Yearbook 1999, the size of the Chinese nuclear arsenal is about 400 warheads. The Bulletin estimates that 20 nuclear-armed missiles are deployed in the intercontinental role, and another 230 nuclear weapons on deployed (or can be deployed) on aircraft, missiles, and submarines with regional capabilities. The 150 remaining nuclear warheads are believed to be reserved for "tactical" uses (short-range missiles, low yield aircraft-dropped bombs, and possibly artillery shells or demolition munitions).

China currently maintains a minimal intercontinental nuclear deterrent using land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs). The Dong Feng-5 (DF-5) liquid-fueled missile, first deployed in 1981, has a range of 13,000 km and carries a single multi-megaton warhead. Twenty are believed to be deployed in central China, southwest of Beijing. Unlike China's earlier ballistic missiles, which were stored in caves and moved out for launch, the DF-5 can be launched directly from vertical silos—but only after a two-hour fueling process. In order to increase the survivability of the DF-5s, dummy silos are placed near the real silos. The DF-5's range gives it coverage of all of Asia and Europe, and most of the United States. The south-eastern US states are at the edge of the missile's range.


North Korea might have a big army but you forgot one important thing that helps win wars. Technology. North Korea does not have the technology the US and South Korea has. There is no certain way to tell the outcome of a North Korean-South Korean war because you must factor in Allies and technology. North Korea lacks a strong air force while the United States boasts the strongest air force in the world. North Korea doesn't have the technology to shoot down the superior planes of the U.S. That is a huge factor considering that the Air Force is a major contributor to U.S. warfare. South Korea and the U.S. also have superior guns and vehicles compared to North Korea.

As for China and nuclear weapons, they wouldn't dare using them. They are not stupid enough to start a nuclear war. No one is.
