Free speech is the foundation of our country. If we outlaw blasphemy as many here have suggested, we begin down the dangerous slope of outlawing criticism of religion. What happened in Benghazi was horrible, but not the result of a video criticizing Islam, as intelligence now tells us. Even if it were, that is the fault of religions, not people exercising their right to free speech, which includes the right to blaspheme. No one should be punished for blasphemy in any country, least of all ours. Keep speech free!
