I'm writing this because all the deaths and misery in Middle Eastern Islamic countries over this "movie" shown on the internet makes no sense at all.
First of all, Europe and the United States are not ruled by dictators and so no one rules us we all rule ourselves. Our governments are not "Top Down" but "Bottom UP". Now that might seem crazy to you if you haven't lived in a society like ours. So, when you blame Obama for this movie it is senseless. Because since we rule ourselves rather than have someone rule us no punishment is possible in our society for making a movie like this. Now that might be scary to you but this is our system of government "of the people, by the people and for the people". We are not used to dictatorships for thousands of years like your societies might be. We threw off our last dictator in 1776 over 200 years ago who ruled us from another country and now we rule ourselves. Our leaders are not dictators they only represent us to other nations. And we change those representatives quite frequently so they don't ever become dictators. So, if you are upset that the people who made this movie aren't being punished, it is important to know there is no legal mechanism available in this country to actually do that. Because we have freedom of religion(one can believe in almost anything). We have freedom of the press(one can print almost anything about anyone). And we have freedom of speech(one can say almost anything about anyone without punishment).
So, if you are demonstrating and killing people and are angry Obama isn't punishing anyone you need to know he has absolutely no power at all to punish the people responsible for that under our system of laws. People make insulting images of Christ all the time and they aren't punished for that. Also, disgusting images and stories all religious figures sometimes are written about, put into print, or made into movies. So, Mohammed is not singled out in this way. None of these people are punished because of Freedom of Speech. So, why would they be punished for making insulting images and stories about Mohammed? There is no law like this in the U.S. nor likely will there ever be. So, what you seek cannot happen. So, demonstrating for anything more than an apology which you have already received is the furthest our legal system goes.
Freedom of speech allows people okay or crazy or anywhere in between to say their minds or write their minds or print their minds or video their experiences. Because everyone here knows this here that it prevents murders, rapes and criminal activities because through freedom of speech and freedom of the press all bad things tend to come out into the open and criminals eventually get punished for important things like murders, stealing and rape. So, freedom of speech and freedom of the Press allows truth to prevail in the actions of all people as they associate within our country. Everything hidden is eventually revealed through freedom of speech and/or freedom of the press. and this allows equality, freedom and justice to prevail in our country here in the U.S.
