No, there have been one or two threads mocking Hindus, too - and several answerers spouting the "going to hell" line.
But y'know, I have yet to see any anti-Buddhist questions. Maybe because they don't mess with anybody?
(For the record, I don't see anything about Shintoists or agnostics, either. I could be missing a few posts, though.)

Many people have picked Buddhists and Hindus.But Bhuddhists do not claim theirs is the only way and mostly a few of them try to only to explain their religious teachings.

The Buddhists don't push their agenda on anyone. They are only concerned with their own personal spiritual journey which is how it should be. It's only the evangelicals and fundamentalists with their "Us right, You wrong" attitude that pisses people off. You push an agenda and people will push back.

Everyone gets picked on. Buddhist are amoung the few that plain don't care if they are picked on.

No, the Christians harass Buddhists, too. I've heard such enlightening phrases as:
"You're worshipping a false god!" (even though the Buddha never claimed to be a god.)
"Buddha is dead. Jesus is alive!"
"Buddha is in hell."
You know, all that nice love-your-enemies, do-unto-others stuff.

Don't have much to pick on with Buddhists - they aren't trying to legislate their morality as far as I know.

I think they both get picked, but since there are not many it seems as though they don't.
I have seen some Christians writing in their replies that they will go to hell. Fortunatly, not often though.

Pretty much, most can relate to those two.
