So Somebody posted a stupid video on Youtube that set the world on fire!

Welcome to democracy and the stupidity that goes with it.  These 'filmmakers' and 'artists' make some totally disgusting videos, get a who-knows-what to do a little internet salespitch, and this is the reaction?  Ironically, the countries where violence is now erupting aren't used to the concept/idea/privelege of free speech and aren't used to the concept that just because it is out there, on the internet, or even other media forms, doesn't mean it is government-sanctioned.  If we want to spread democracy, we might as well throw in the bill of rights and constitution, and all the pitfalls that come with it, not to mention the tolerance and patience required before any opposing parties just kill each other in broad daylight.  It's almost overly simplistic to ask whatever happened to the old 'sticks and stones' retorical question except now the sticks are icbms and stones are ied's?
