She named a teddy bear muhammad, they deemed it against the law, so she got punished. I don't see a problem with that.
She should have known better than to allow the children to call it muhammad.

It was actually the children who called it Muhammed :td:

why does it offend muslims that a wee teddy bear was called Muhammed

 

[Barrucadu]

Well, she shouldn't have let them, then.
Look at it this way, be thankful she is still alive and hasn't been executed for it.

I agree with Kev. However I don't know anything about Mohammed. Maybe others who know more about Mohammed can explain why Mohammed would want the teacher punished instead of accepting an apology from what appears to be an innocent mistake. Does Mohammed teach compassion and forgiveness? If so, seems this would be an excellent opportunity to show it.

Well if the children called it Mohammad, shouldn't the kids be executed as well. I mean they are the ones that believe in him. Someone should start a rally calling for their execution. Then see how many will call for hers.

 

[Barrucadu]

Does Mohammed teach compassion and forgiveness?

I don't think so. If I recall correctly, he started off his career as a prophet by butchering an entire city.

 

[kev]

They called for no prisoners whoever insult Muhammed so shouldnt they jail the 7 year olds who named the bear - i wouldnt put it past them in saying that

I don't understand why people keep going to places like this. Stay away. Not Safe.

The only thing keeping her alive at the moment is the fact she is under arrest.
