I feel exactly the same way, Ely. It's frustrating when the freedoms we enjoy (and defend) are used to justify acts of pure stupidity. We are so concerned with allowing the freedom of expression that we are afraid to step in when these actions express nothing but hatred and bigotry... and (in this case) actually present a clear and present danger to the men and women tasked (and credited) with protecting that freedom.
I think it is important that the rest of the country (even the government) vocally condemn this action, even while allowing it to happen. That would be a far cry better than the so-called 'moderate Muslims' have done, so far as decrying the terrorist actions of their fellow Muslims.
