South Park just did a show that dressed Mohammad in a bear outfit so some have made that link. I actually like SP but I would not let my children watch the show.
I didn't even know that. I don't watch it, never will. I just know they're constantly out to offend everyone whether they carry Bibles or bombs. Someday, it could really backfire on them.

That's good because it's not meant for kids, that's why it's on at 10pm
What's wrong with the world when people want to kill someone over a cartoon?

That's idiotic. I hope you're just attempting a bad joke.
yea, who would actually listen to that crap.
It it was a Muslim who did this (it usually is),
except when it's not.
see McVeigh, Timothy and Stack, Joseph.
of course when the american white guys do it we just call them "disgruntled and angry" or that they just have "some misguided gripes with the government" instead of calling them what they are (Terrorists, yea, i went capital T).
btw, when we invade and demolish another country based on trumped up phoney evidence on WMD and cuz we want regime change, and hundreds of thousands of innocents die in the process, i guess that's just "foreign policy" and not terrorism.

Well he got the truck into the time square and if he had built a better bomb the results would not have been good. Time Square is not safer because they cannot serch ever veh. that enters the city so its only a matter of time until someone pulls in with a truck blows the hell out of a place like time sq.
Just saying I bet there are less eyes on Chinatown then Times Square.

Surprised nobody heard/posted about this.
NYPD: Video has possible SUV bomb suspect in alley - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_times_square_car_bomb)
Luckily nobody was hurt. Could only imagine the destruction there would've been if that bomb had detonated.
Im offended that yahoo wanted me to watch an ad prior to seeing the video. I mean cant they employ some discretion when putting ads on videos. Cute puppy dogs dressed up in Halloween customs (Ad - yes). Nationwide man hunt for terror suspect (Ad - no).

that's a weird thing to get offended to. So when you buy a newspaper you don't want ads in the A section, or when you watch the 10 oclock news they shouldn't put teasers before ads?
That is going to be a popular link, hence good ad space. (not as good as a truck though;))

Thats how they can offer the news and the online services for free. I'm sure they offer a pay service if you don't want to watch the comercials.

I don't watch it very often and when I did I thought I was watching reruns thinking they did't still produce the show. Then I'm sitting there watching it and the topic was current and I kind of laughed at myself.

Interestingly enough, it was parked outside Viacom, where they product offensive garbage like South Park and MTV.
It it was a Muslim who did this (it usually is), they're probably mad about some Mohammed jokes on a cartoon. As we saw with the rioting and murders all over Europe a few years ago, a simple comic strip can send millions of them them into riots and killing sprees.
