Saying that if Jesus were in those cartoons half the USA would go nuts is...well, nuts! Jesus is lampooned far and wide without much ire beyond evangelical leaders grumbling a bit. Heck, remember when the US National Endowment for the Arts even funded (as best I recall) the "Piss Christ" (Jesus...on the cross I think...submerged in a jar of urine) as "art" in some swanky NY gallery? Get real.
And as regards the idea of shooting up a school - isn't that what the Pakistani Taliban did just last month in Pakistan at a school with mostly Pakistani military offspring?
