Choosing to be offended over something so petty or trivial isn't "hurt".

Seriously? Go back and read. For God's sake man. Here it is for you if you are just too lazy:
Read it, re-read it if you have to, understand it. Have it now, or do you need to ask again for some ridiculous reason?Howard Is said:
Or better yet....
Let people realize that insults matter not.
They're just something that someone says.
If Allah dislikes this, he'll deal with it in the afterlife.
His possible vengeance is not for them to assume.

Threats now ...
More the recognition of the threat posed.
But ya know....sometimes one must risk violent retribution
when exercising a civil right. It's the violence that's wrong.

No problem. Just learn from your mistake. Don't pretend you have no idea what the topic is just to try and do what you think is "forcing someone's hand." The information was readily available, and the thread was only 2 pages long by that time. You were obviously trying to enact some kind of undermining of the point made, or trying to trap someone into offending you or something. I honestly have no idea... I only know I smelled shenanigans in the works. As a matter of fact, the scent still lingers.

We learned that people kill for the idiotic tenets of their religion.

Best that you do, given the insincere and disingenuous nature of the apology.

Oooh ! Serious burn ! Come on, try harder. If you’re gonna go for sarcastic burns, you need to use your intelligence.
That teaching is for Muslims. Not for non-Muslims. You don't force that view on others. You don't kill others who have no obligation to follow the rules imposed upon Muslims.
Imagine what would happened to most of our posts here on RF, if the Muslim religion called all the shots on what is allowed or not? Imagine if the moderators sent assassins after the posters for blasphemy? There would be no diversity. There would be no differences of opinion. It would all be moderated, with lethal force at times, by those who expected everyone to follow the teachings of Islam.

I don't know that it was originally drawn to hurt others but the bomb was definitely to hurt others.
To republish may be to show that the intimidation did not work, but to republish seems also to show a lack of care for the employees at Hedbo.
I guess that's the French for you, Liberty or die,,,,,,,,,,,or in this case Liberty and die.

Or the employees are just tired of religious intimidation by those demanding submission to their beliefs. Hell, who isn't tired of that crap?
I'll wager that they take precautions against violent backlash.
Religions are collections of ideas. ALL ideas must be open to criticism.
"I won't draw pictures of Muhammad myself" - perfectly acceptable.
"I'll murder anyone who draws a picture of Muhammad" - unacceptable.

Why?
The people the cartoons are directed at have a history of violence, prudishness, and misogyny. All of these have hurt other people.
Is that a threat? It sure sounds like a threat.
I have no problem with people attacking my atheism. People do it all the time. I can defend my beliefs without resorting to putting a bomb in their house.
Your Mohammed tried to stifle any competition by making it an evil to attack him. That was pretty smart of him. Fortunately, most people don't give a d**n what some old man allegedly wrote hundreds of years ago.
Trump hasn't gone that far yet
He's recognizing the existence of the threat.
Not making it.
Amanaki is a peace loving guy (by everything I've seen).

Be who ever you want
I have never said you or other have to follow Islamic teaching, but I do not understand why people can not respect that Muslims should not create picture of Muhammad, you do not need to follow a teaching to show respect to what it say.
