It wouldn’t be quite so bad if the rampaging hordes had all watched it
So if devout Muslims who revere the prophet have to actually watch the film that is offensive about his entire life, misrepresents it and call his a kiddy fiddler [amongst other things] in order to have an opinion. Now I am no psychic but I cant see their opinion changing having watched it.
Would I need to watch a film of Al Qaeda [ other bogey men are available] beheading people for say being gay to decide what I thought of it and their actions?
To my knowledge they have not done this and I am just giving an example that would appeal to the audience.
