53% of Danes: Publication of cartoons was right
2006-10-01
A majority of Danes still support the decision to print the controversial Prophet Muhammad cartoons that enraged much of the Islamic world, according to a poll published Saturday on the one-year anniversary of the printing.

The survey by pollster Ramboell Management - published by the Jyllands-Posten daily, the newspaper that first printed the drawings - showed 53 percent of Danes still think it was correct to publish the cartoons as a demonstration of free speech. According to the poll, 38 percent of Danes now think the drawings should never have been published, while 9 percent said they were not sure. Ramboell interviewed 1,041 people between September 4-7. No margin of error was given for the poll.

#4  Agreed lancasters, 53% isn't that impressive of a number.

#3  Only 53 percent? I'll be happy when the number hits 93 percent.

#2  So if you hate the country you're in, you can go home, too.

Supposedly, their hatred of any host country allows them to subvert and overthrow it.

When we finally get the spine to off all of the ingrates who preach or practice this thankless dogma, we'll be a lot farther ahead in fighting terrorism.

#1  If you hate Denmark so much, go home. And I think every other Western country printed them, too. So if you hate the country you're in, you can go home, too. You can change into your burka on the plane trip home. And leave all your possessions behind because they came from an infidel society and it would be wrong to keep them. Go back and try to make a living with olives, dates, camels, sheep, goats, and sand.
