The only parts of the entire equation you guys see here is the death of the people in the embassy.
The innocent lives lost in the attacks on the embassy are nothing short of tragic, they didn't deserve to die but the reason why they died was that film.
People died for 13 minutes of footage
It's awful.
Were the people who retaliated justified in their actions?
Depends who you ask.
Personally do I believe they were?
No.
How far would I go?
I'd stop protecting hate speech from the 1st, for a start.
He made it, he angered them and he got those people killed.wulf3n said:You said someone who made a bad movie is EQUALLY to blame as people who commited murder. how am I being wilfully ignorant.
Regardless if it was intent or not, they are dead because of his stupidity.
You're just over looking his part in all of this because "OMG THEY MURDERED PEOPLE AND HE MADE A FILM!11!!"
Yes they shouldn't have killed people, we get it. Now get out of the bubble you're in and stop acting like an ignorant mouthbreather.
