Here's a little conundrum for you free speech devotees.
What happens when the freedom to utter death threats infringes on the freedom of other people to speak their mind?
I've never watched the Penn and Gillette show, can't afford the premium channels in my satellite package. However, I did read an interview with one of them some time ago. I think it may have been Penn.
Anyway he was asked why he never made satirical comments about Islam, only about Christianity. He replied simply, "I have a family." Of course that should not apply to the majority of American Muslims, but it is a fair comment on the extremists. He went on to say that the majority of Christians were "good American liberals" who sent him bibles and told him they were praying for him.
