A popular northern California morning radio team was abruptly suspended Tuesday, after calling on their listeners to make cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed to teach Muslims a lesson about American-styled free speech.
“Some of you people that are good with the computer – make an anti-Mohammed ad post it to Al Jazeera,” said Jack Armstrong of the San Francisco Bay Area morning team Armstrong and Getty on Monday. “We need to swamp them with ads until they grow up.”
The comments were brought about during a heated discussion about last Friday’s rioting in the Muslim world over a YouTube video defaming the Prophet Mohammed and Islam. “It’s absolutely unbelievable that we [the United States] have been put in a position where we’re apologizing [for the video], and nobody condemns them [for their violence],” Armstrong said.
Armstrong and Getty also mocked President Obama and the US State Department for what they described as an “apology” to Muslims about the video.
“Nobody delivers the incredibly complicated message of, ‘listen, you can burn this embassy or you can ignore it [the video] completely, the results will still be the same,’” added co-host Joe Getty. “Just settle down.”
“You apologize this time, and everything is going to be fine,” Getty said. “No, they [the Muslims] shove you back on your heels one step and take another step forward.”
The next day, fans of the popular radio due found a “best of” show and a terse “on vacation” excuse from radio management. Podcast archives of the previous day’s controversial show were also taken down.
It was only later in the day that it was revealed that local Bay area Muslims had complained to NewsTalk910, the radio station the duo broadcasts from.
“Sadly, at this time, that’s what he [Jack Armstrong] sees as selling,” local Muslim activist Tawfiq Morrar told area news station KTXL.
“We just ask you to respect other faiths,” Morrar said. “Just as in the Muslim faith, we don’t insult Christians and Jews and other prophets [....] A couple hundred [people] in Afghanistan doesn’t represent the 25 million residents of Afghanistan that said, we know that Jack Armstrong does not represent the majority of Americans.” < complete lies, Koran is full of hate speech directed at Jews and Christians.
Media requests to Armstrong and Getty, their producer and radio station went unanswered. Their Twitter feed has also fallen eerily silent.

OMG!!! What has happened to free speach?? This really makes me flaming mad!
FUCK ISLAM
Why do we keep apologizing to Muslims? We live in America! If you don’t like free speech, move back to your own country. I support the two announcers!!!!!
Once thousands of Muslims embed themselves in communities, there seems to follow demands to establish Islamic culture, then laws that prohibit any signs of victimization of Muslims while at the same time long term residents are forced out by bullying and other forceful ways, it appears local authorities also have a large Muslim leadership in place to protect the interest of the Muslim and not those long term residents being forced out.
Seems like large number of Muslim thugs (gangs) (tribes) establish communications should someone show signs of dislike toward Muslims, once this occurs it is noted that this one person or how many others are involved will be outnumbered ten fold quickly, local authorities will not respond to calls, only calls from these tribes should they need assistance, usually not, because the angrier someone is the more violent the retaliation..
So, what course of action do long term residents have to level the field, it is a serious issue few talk about until rapes and thug violence occurs daily, usually it is too late, you lost your community and the call to prayer begins…..the U.K is jusssst about lost because of this scenario and the political correctness of the country. Its citizens are in an uproar, the EDL is receiving threats from Islamic thugs and the authorities detain this group fight for their country, go figure, I know there is another 12 point plan from another Englishman but I’d like to hear any suggestions to this in your face situation going on around the nation now…
i tried to e-mail the radio station to tell them what a bunch of spineless idiots they are but it wouldn’t send
“We just ask you to respect other faiths …”
I’m sure the host do, but Islam is not a faith – it’s a murderous cult.
“… we don’t insult Christians and Jews …”
I agree. But they do murder them, because Mohammed said to.
WHEN WILL THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES WAKE UP…WHAT IS YOUR VERSION OF FREE SPEECH…IF BUSH DONE ANYTHING CLOSE TO WHAT obama IS DOING THE MEDIA WOULD IMPEACH…THE ONLY THING WE NEED FROM MUSLIMS IS THE GUTS TO BEHEAD OUR ENEMYS..
If the muslims that heard the show are upset . Tough shit ! This is AMERICA and we don’t apologize for our free speech !!!
Keep insulting Islam until the dhimmi idiots in USA get it…This is America. No muslim tells us what to say. This station is corrupt, dhimmified and losers. We do not apologize to a cult that has wrought death and beheading and take-overs for 1400 years. INSULT ISLAM until Islam gets the hell out.
Why doesn’t everyone contact the radio station and insist on their return? Flood the station with demands for their return. And as well, threaten to boycott the advertisers if the pair are kept off the air.
