Did Muslims who settled in the US fully understand the import of the First Amendment as concerning protection of freedom of expression?
Did it come as a shock that individuals can, under full protection of law, insult and ridicule anyone and that even includes desecration of holy books?
I think that this type of satire is valuable to religion because it gives an opportunity for parents to speak to their children about how their faith can be twisted and then present them with a more correct interpretation. Keeping words suppressed just makes children suspect that the satire is true.

1) Yes, many of them are very well educated. They choose to privately disagree with it, despite publicly accepting it when becoming a citizen.
2) No. And they react as their faith and will direct them to.
"full protection of the law" is a bit of an oxymoron at times. Some of those dead peoples' families will not feel very well protected.
None of this is new or at all surprising to anyone who can be bothered to actually do a search before they post a question that's already been asked a zillion times. What are you really doing here?

The protection of freedom of expression never meant to make it an absulate. We still have to obey traffic lights, so, we must ALSO have the decency to respect what other believe in lack of respect is BAD freedom we can do without.

It doesn't seem to me that any religious leaders understand that one at all.
I have seen them state many times that 'freedom of religion doesn't mean freedom from religion", and it does mean exactly that.
I am as free not to be religious as one is to be religious.
Christians don't get it that if we allow them to pray in school, we also must allow prayers to allah, Vishnu, Ra, and all gods. Leaving no time for real school.
As for ridicule, they are hardly free of that. They ridicule reality for chrissakes.

They just feel that if they murder enough people then people will be afraid to exert their right to free expression. They live in a world (Islam) that is ruled by fear so they can't comprehend what it is like to live without fear.
