South Park was designed from the get go to be crude and offensive. Have you ever seen the splash screen for the show? Folks who create provoking media don't give two shits about who protests or what countries ban them, they care about getting their message out in the most effective way possible. Thanks to the wonderful efforts of these Christian protests, more people saw what offended them than would have otherwise. Same story goes for games like GTA and Postal, newspaper cartoons like we all know about, books, music, the works. Protesting about whoever's publishing the media is shooting the messenger, and all it does is add publicity to the cause they're trying to stop.
