If you watch the news you're aware of the events taking place in the middle east reguarding violent protests against anti-Muslim danish Cartoons. Most people will tell you that violence is obviously not the answer, but the issue at hand here is... Do you think that the rights of free speech should be curbed so it does not offend a religion?

I'm not sure what publication these cartoons are printed in, but lets say you opened up a copy of the daily paper and something in their cartoons offended you? You most likely would not resort to violence, but you'd be upset non the less.
I know it's a controversial issue, that's why I'm asking it. What do you guys think should be protected under free speech and what should not be protected? Should the United States interfere in this instance? -------------------- [img]http://photos-081.facebook.com/n6/081/n15913038_30266081_3342.jpg[/img]
