Yes there was outrage and protests. And yet, his right to free speech was defended in all places.

so there ya go. Selective Freedom of Speech.
The terrorist have won. The goal of terrorism is to invoke fear. And it has surely done so in some people that they are willing to give up some of their freedoms for it.
Oh yeah... I remember.

When Muslims kill people over cartoons and movies, the problem is with MUSLIMS, not the creators of the cartoon or movie. When have Christians, Jews, or Hindus gone on a killing rampage over a cartoon or movie?


PS- The Crusades were 800 years ago.
The Crusades is a great example of the West standing up to Muslim agression not surprising liberals take a dim view of it.

Guess it didn't take long. America, watch what you are doing... Do not kowtow to these extremists - it sets a very bad precedent and IS a slippery slope.

He did that last Saturday (9/8).

Why is he not mentioned anywhere. If anything what he did was more inciteful of protests than what the filmmaker did..put that on you tube 2 months ago to little fanfare.
Could it be that we don't have jurisdiction over the Egyptian TV host.....

The "filmmaker" was being questioned in re violating the conditions of his parole.

These same people that are defending this man being interviewed, are the same ones who condem the Tea Partiers, but support the Occupy Wall Street movement..

They are all over the place with hypocracy

While I still dont believe all this unrest is about a movie alone, let's imagine that it is. SO WHAT?! If anything, they should put the guy into a protection program.

Yet our own government outed this guy and are now interviewing him. As if his movie is criminal?

Is this not the United States anymore? I have heard some on the left say that he should be charged. For what?!

Should we then charge any person who has mocked other faiths/people? Half of Hollywood and the media would be then charged.

This is disturbing that the FEDs are even interviewing him at this point. Yes, I have seen the trailer and my opinion is it looks like amateur stupidity. But that is not a crime.
The left would like us to stick our heads in the sand when it comes to radical i slam.

If the guy would have insulted Christians, the government would perfectly fine with it. More and more we're under Sharia law.

One of the conditions of this guy's parole from federal prison was that he not use the Internet for five years. He was being questioned regarding whether or not he violated the conditions of his parole. I'd think that if one of the conditions of your parole is that you not use the internet, and then you make a "movie" which is posted on YouTube, it would be negligent of the Federal Parole Officers to ignore it when your YouTube post not only got lots of views but was cited as the cause for violence and death in the world.
