[QUOTE="Jonno, post: 465860, member: 5"] That's true but a better (and more relevant) analogy would be if you were a Geordie you were offended by Andy Capp to the point of burning down the paper that printed it. Let's say for instance though there was a cartoon which implicitly said that Scousers were thieves. Now many scousers may be offended, but they wouldn't do anything. A few however may do something daft along the lines of having a little protest, maybe smashing a few windows, because there are always an idiotic minority. That's a more relevant analogy. Also now imagine that it wasn't just a town being offended, it was hundreds of millions of people. And it wasn't just a stereotype that was being mocked it was everything they believed in. On that scale the minority would be even bigger, and hence you'd see more stupid acts. They are still the minority though. That's what some people are failing to recognise in this thread. [/QUOTE]
