I'd like to tell you a story, if you are all sitting comfortably, then i'll begin.....

"So, my friend and i were walking along a public pathway across a field one day, when we came across a sleeping rabid dog, i wanted to avoid the dog because i knew i was likely to get mauled if i disturbed it, but my friend didn't care, he said this is a public pathway and he has every right to walk across it if he chooses, so he did, when he got close to the dog it lifted it's head and watched him approach.

As he drew closer still, the dog let out a low menacing growl to warn my friend he was getting too close, but my friend was unperturbed and pressed on, then when the dog stood up and started barking and snarling at him, he didn't run or take one of the many alternate routes home that were open to him, instead he thought he would walk right up to the dog singing loudly and stamping his feet.....the rabid dog of course leaped at him and savaged him to death."

That story was of course a load of old tripe, but it does serve the purpose of expressing the old idiom "Let sleeping dogs lie."

There is not purpose to asserting your right to a pointless exercise when there are many other options or pathways to choose from, consider, how many people in that FB group actually, truly care if they are not supposed to draw prophets? And how many of them do you think are merely there to stir up trouble and are doing so because they know it will?

So extremist muslims don't want me to draw pictures of prophets? That's fine by me, i'm not interested in drawing pictures of them anyway, it's a fruitless exercise for me, if their beliefs somehow start affecting my daily life, then i might have issues with whatever it is, but until that rabid dog it actually lying on my doorstep, preventing me from getting home and shitting/puking in my garden, i'll let it sleep and apply my attention to more immediate problems.
