Stop the campaign, she wants to get off.

"I made a cartoon that went viral but [this campaign] isn't really my thing," cartoonist Molly Norris tells Comic Riffs, characterizing her cartoon as merely a personal response to Comedy Central's censorship of a "South Park" episode last week. "Other folks have taken it over" -- an appropriation she says she is distancing herself from.Read the whole thing.
Was Molly Norris threatened with death too? All the more reason to continue with the original plan: On May 20, everyone should draw and post a picture of Mohammed.
