Google Will Not Remove Anti-Muslim Video From YouTube Despite White House Request for Review | TheBlaze.com

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

For the record, I think it's great. Freedom of speech wins yet again.

Unless they're going to clamp down on everything that offends anyone then they should leave it up. It's time the Muslims get their act together and realize they don't control the whole world.

Let countries block what they want. China has been doing this for some time with their "Great Firewall".
Let the rest of the free world be free.

Of course they won't. Freedom of Speech. Something Muslim extremists need to figure out is that we have Freedom of Speech and therefore we have the right to say negative things about them. They also need to learn that the anti-Muslim bigots of America do not represent America anymore than they represent all Muslims.

And Freedom of speech is what allows Islam to grow here. If we didn't have freedom of speech and other freedoms there would be no Muslims or Mosques in this country. Just like saudi Arabia.

I saw it. It is an aberration. Extremely offensive and despicable.

That said, it should not be removed.

There's no reason to remove it. If someone doesn't want to view it, damn, it's not rocket science!

I watched a very small part of it and was bored to tears, so I stopped.

See how easy it is?

I would remove it, not because it offends Muslims, but because it's garbage. Don't watch it.
