The Muslims have been 'offended' and they're standing up against those taking the piss out of/desecrating their prophet (even though it's a joke). I don't blame them for standing up to something they firmly believe in (even though it's over the top).

Some Muslims get offended by women exposing their arms in public, who cares? We dont need to take the views of the mentally ill seriously.

Why? Some beliefs are stupid and wrong, and pretending that they are reasonable is just silly. A person who believes that dragons are carrying him away in his sleep doesnt need people telling him that his opinion is valid - he needs psychiatric help. The same applies to those who think that a god gets angry when people draw cartoons.
