It's free speech to make fun of the holocaust but if you do that in central europe you will get in prison, what happened to free speech then? Sure it is up to him if he wants to make cartoons of the Prophet but at the end of the day all he is doing is making alot of people unhappy unnessicarily imo.

It becomes about "free speech" the moment you get a government involved.
I don't think it's possible for the government to legislate/enforce "respect" without infringing on freedom of speech.
Great snippets, imho. Gotta love people that go to bat for the important issues, and don't just lay over.
