What you have is a case of artistic license vs security.

I tend to find these arguments on promoting free speech and stamping out PC kind of amusing because in every case it is the same people spouting on about how ludicrous it is and how the right to free speech is paramount and yet the very same people are present in other threads (ie people protesting the war etc.) complaining that these people shouldnt be protesting and if they were there they would be sorting out the protesters.
For example take 5.56's views above he manages to be on both sides of a fence at once.

So which is it guys free speech tempered with PC or some form of police state where you only have the right to agree with the majority or who ever is in charge?
I made refrence to the fact it was an added scene...

No it relates to PC for that it is only the Islam religion they are worried about no one seems to care the Jesus, Buddha, and Poseidon are portrayed...And that is the point I was trying to make....Because you see, for when some one talks about Muhammad wack-os fire bomb a embassy...

This cracks me up http://www.zipperfish.com/free/yaafm12.php (foul language)

Finally I have no problem with a peaceful protest...However not one where you chain yourself to a fence and cause a disturbance...And not when you are being disrespectful of a funeral and saying how that soldier should go to hell for fighting for his country...

Yes limitations to freedom of speech exist for good reason....ie you cant run around screaming fire...That would cuase physical injury...
