Rutgers Goes Sharia Compliant After Muslim Brotherhood Student Group Make THIS Sharia Demand

Rutgers, the state university of New Jersey, is the eighth oldest in the nation, founded ten years before the colonies declared their independence from Britain, and consistently ranked in the top 25 universities in the country.
Presumably, such a distinguished institution of higher learning would be able to teach its students an understanding of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution: “Congress shall make no law… or abridging the freedom of speech…
Yet in another capitulation to Muslims who do not hold such guarantees dear and look to erase them from our public life, Rutgers’ student newspaper not only apologized for a depiction of Muhammad in an issue, but actually reprinted the issue without the offending image.
In fact, the university tracked down and destroyed every issue that could be found.
The Gleaner published a drawing of Muhammad, Buddha and Jesus in a bar, triggering a demand from the Muslim Brotherhood campus group – yes, there really is a Muslim Brotherhood presence on the campus of the New Jersey state university – that the image be deleted

Yeah, Muslims are the only ones who get offended over depictions of religious figures. I guess you had no problem with Piss Christ?

No, but let's not pretend that it hasn't happened elsewhere, which kind of makes the comparison a little asinine.
While it wasn't over a depiction of Jesus, Robert Dear killed 3 and wounded 9 in Colorado Springs, and that was because of his religious objection to abortion. I'm not trying to equate the 2 in scale, but it isn't unheard of for someone who claims to be a Christian to kill people who don't agree with is beliefs.

With respect to the Rutgers situation, I would equate the reaction of the Muslim leader to that of Christian people protesting at a Planned Parenthood location. I think it was an entirely legal and reasonable way to express concern over the issue.
