TEXAS: Pamela Geller To Stage $10,000 "Draw The Prophet Mohammed" Contest

From the clip description:
The human rights advocacy group the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) today announced that it will be holding a contest for cartoons of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, and an exhibit of Muhammad cartoons, a retropective this May in Garland, Texas. The contest will be online, with entries posted at the AFDI website. The winning cartoon will be announced at the May 3 cartoon exhibit in Garland, Texas. The winning cartoonist will be awarded a $10,000 prize. The cartoon exhibit will feature images of Islam’s prophet, both historic and contemporary, and speeches by internationally renowned free speech advocates. The exhibit will be held at the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland on Sunday, May 3.
Geller: "When Robert Mapplethorpe put Christ on a cross in a jar of urine and called it Piss Christ, the leftist elites - the culture - he was exalted." Piss Christ, of course, was actually the work of Andres Serrano and it was smashed to pieces by Christian activists while on display in France.
