If you're going to go that route, then insults to Christianity will have to be outlawed as well, and don't forget insulting any other religion either. This isn't Burger King and NO, you don't get it your way!!!

No ideology is immune from criticism. The truth can stand a challenge. If a philosophy can't stand a challenge, then maybe it's not true.

"Should insults to Islam be against the law?" that's kind of racist question.
It should be "Should insults to religions be against the law?"
And yes insulting religions should be aginst the law.

I thought religious people were supposed to have faith. Surely if that faith is strong then no insult could possibly offend them. When someone tries to insult me I know the truth about myself so it's water off a ducks back. Insults only have weight if they are backed up by the truth.

I'm sorry if my statement offends you, I do not mean it personally. I'm just really tired of Muslims complaining of being offended and then use that as an excuse to kill people. Other Religions are offended everyday and they don't kill people for it. Christians are subject to hearing God and Jesus spoken in vain, used as cuss words(swearing), with no bounty being issued for the offense.
No, the Muslims are losing their credibility,( what little they had) in the West.
Kill our Ambassador, drag his body through the streets, burn our flag and say it is the work of radicals and terrorists? There was a lot of people in the streets. Were they all terrorist? Seems they were average Muslims.
Shame on me.

We should completely pull out of the Middle East and let those idiots starve. No more money and no more trade. We have enough oil in the United States to last us a century and the resources for clean energy independence, but the "Powers That Be" will not allow all the above to happen.

1- this "cleric" is the brother to the top Al Queda dude. doesn't that smell stinky?

2- Islam should be contained in their countries-not allowed to go ballistic anytime they want.There should be punishment that fits their crime.

Islam is not "special" that it should get special treatment. That's incredible stupid. Of course if it did, then who'd require them to give Christians the same special treatment?

That's the whole point-Muslims hate Christianity & Israel-they always have & always will. They need to reap what they sow.

other Religions take hits... why should Islam be special.

and.. Islam itself, hits other religions.

NO.. there should be no such ban.

that's drawing a line in the sand... adolescent ..... they consider every criticism an insult ... soon they will insist that if you are not islam you must have a negative opinion of it and therefore you are insulting it .... ridiculous ... the insults are directed at the fanatics and not their god

Insulting should banned, if you want to live in a civlized society, reduce hate crimes, and sustain stronger connection between members of the society with all the colors of the society spectrum.

Anyone who thinks insults are okay, I would tell him: "F-word you!".
