Muslims protest at insult to prophet

vendredi 14 août 2020 à 02:00

Indian thugs shot at Muslims protesting an insult to Mohammed.

Those protesters had a right to protest; but if their demand is to censor negative statements about Mohammed, their cause is unjust. You have a right to criticize, condemn, or make fun of any religion, and any prophet, even the prophet that tells people that they are using evil, oppressive software which is an abomination.

Indian law includes many forms of censorship. The book Lajja, by Taslima Nasrin, which is about the oppression of Hindus in Bangladesh (where she was from) was banned in the adjoining state of India.
