I guess you must not really have been paying attention then. The painting, which was part of the Sensation exhibit that was on loan to the Brooklyn Museum caused a ridiculous amount of outrage - with protests outside led by then-Mayor Giuliani, and a man attacking the painting with a bucket of white paint.
There was just as much, if not more of an uproar and "OUTRAGE" about that as there was about the Koran burning.
This is why modern day liberals look like idiots.
The response to a piece of offensive art was protests, and someone deface the art itself.
The response to an offensive cartoon depicting Mohammad with a bomb in his turban was death threats, and attacks on Danish embassies throughout the world.
If you are incapable of seeing the difference between these two I am not the one that has a problem.
If you are incapable of reading what I wrote instead of what you seem to want me to write, there's nothing I can do to help you.
I read what you wrote. I understood it better than you think.
The burning of the Korans resulted in death threats against the US in general, the pastor being burnt in effigy, and probable danger to US troops overseas. The protests and uproars over that painting did not reach anywhere near that level of vindictiveness. Unless you can show me that those protest involved flags being burned and chants of death to America, you are still the one that has the problem.
