Animals have long been used in military and intelligence operations, from dolphins being trained to detect mines to chickens recently being used by US forces in Kuwait to discover chemical weapons. During the Second World War, Britain awarded 32 medals for bravery to military pigeons (see Weird Fact of the Day, October 13).
Once again. Since when did extremists enter the picture? This all started with normal Muslim gamers.

they entered once they started killing people, not hard to figure out. they are in the thought process of those at sony who chose to deal with the situation as they did. what do you not see about this?
anyway that link is great dvader, i am so pleased that someone within that community saw fit to speak up.
Killing people? Once again, those who submitted the complaint aren't killers. So why are you correlated killers with Sony's move?
just for the record, i am not generalizing muslims in any way. when i say extremist muslims, i am referring only to the segment that resorts to crazy violence in response to people "offending" "their" religion (the irony there is insane). i can just as easily get going on extremist christians murdering throughout history, but it wouldnt be relevant to the conversation.
the reason i bring it up here is because any entity would consider the reactions of that radical minority in considering how to handle a situation. i would appreciate not having words put in my mouth. also keep in mind i said from the get go i didn't think this was a HUGE issue, but more that i thought it was crap in general that people should even have to consider such nonsense as violent reactions to expression.
i have also said i understand why sony did what they did, but i personally just disagree with it.
