Freedom of speech & Western hypocrisy.

The Constitution of the United States explicitly forbids the government from curtailing freedom of press, speech or religion. The government is not–and CANNOT be–in the business of preventing a citizen from thinking in a particular manner or saying something, even if that something is deemed offensive by someone else in some part of the world. That, of course, does not mean that the American public or the government condones ‘offensive’ speech. Many Americans who have come to hear of this “movie” have been dismayed or disgusted. And let’s not forget that President Obama and others in the US administration have condemned it. Susan Rice, the US Ambassador to the UN, for example, called it "hateful and offensive.” And Hillary Clinton, the US Secretary of State, condemned in as "reprehensible and disgusting.”

What is disgusting is that people can not differentiate between ‘thinking, saying’ and actually going on insulting by making a cartoon/video.
