South park is hallrious to watch. but I am surprised they haven't been sued by any religious groups - Jews, Catholics, Scientology etc. South park maybe paying them off, but I guess Muslims need payment in virgins instead of cash lol

I really enjoy South Park, the satire and the humour. Satire is a particularly protected form of free speech in the US, so they could not be sued by religions. And it is not harmful, it is so easy to avoid if it offends you. Though people got upset about Kick a Ginger day. I agree with Randy Andy, that doing something you know will offend people without a good reason is not a great plan. But in this case, I think that they are making an important point about people caving in to threats. And it should not be offensive to a reasonable person, because it is so absurd. Is it really offensive when a cartoon Jesus defecates on cartoon George Bush? There are lots of things that I find a lot more offensive than that.
