But those with common sense understand that freedom of speech can have consequences. Anyone with common sense knows that there have been many times where we wanted to say something but refrained from doing so because we understood that it can have negative consequences.
The producers of that video seem to understand that quite well as they used a pseudonym to start with and have since gone into hiding.
It almost seems like some of you are happy this is happening. Some of you even seem giddy to stretch these incidents so you can proudly say "I told you so." Sad.
That film was first posted in July. It didn't get much attention so they put Arabic sub-titles on it. Seemed to work didn't it?
But you see Frank, even if a few Americans die, including a US Ambassador, those lives are merely collateral damage and paid the price for one to exercise their right to freedom of speech, isn't it worth it? Some seem to think so. But those with common sense understand that freedom of speech can have consequences.

freedom of speech didn't kill them,an irrational angry mob did.
However I'm sure the world would like to know identities and motivations.

I am quite saddened by the events, and I still can say "I told you so".
Whenever one meddles in another's civil war, you take sides, and one side won't like it.
America is a free country because we fought for one.
Let us let other countries do the same.
They will find the same pride/freedom, if that's what they are looking for.
With the money budgeted to the American military, why would any US president need to micro-manage things that are common sense for nearly everyone in the states. The people charged with protecting these embassies should be held accountable. They all knew this week would be in a high threat status and basically did nothing.
Looks like they breached an outer perimeter and set fire to a building before being repelled.
Yemen, Egypt and Libya are all part of the Arab Spring regime change that was masterminded by the Obama administration and the Muslim Brotherhood. These attacks had nothing to do with a movie which was not made by an Israeli film-maker.

It's not for us to decide.
What the heck are you talking about?
They aren't rioting because they want independence?
They attacked our embassies on September 11, 2012, killed our Ambassador and 3 staff members.
That doesn't seem like an intelligent rational way to express how badly you want your "freedom".
You need to stop drinking the liberal cool-aid.
