Everybody Draw You Know Who Day

"...Its things like these, the reactions so extreme (remember killings of innocents, banning of Danish products) that make people perceive Muhammad to be an angry arab with a turban, probably with a suicide bomb hidden in it.

"...Also what does the governement plan to achieve from this ban? Have they not heard of proxy sites? Have they never been on the internet? What about freedom of expression?

Can we not do something more substantial towards building a better image of the Prophet and its followers than this?
