And thats ok is it? That we can poke fun at anyone we please except if its a religious official. Then bombs go off, an embassy gets burned down and over a hundred people get beaten to death.
Your comparison isn't adequete. Free speech isn't a "stupid kid" and religion certainly isn't a "lion". Lions are seen as a symbol for courage and grace, the "issue" demonstrated it has neither.
