No one rationalized their behavior as "understandable" guy. BUt I find it hilarous you think this fraudster is some kind of First Amendment Hero. My hero is the Ambassador who got killed, who was trying to help a broken country of total strangers rebuild. Your hero is a convicted fraudster who deliberately made a film knowing people might be killed in the aftermath.
The guy is a douchebag, but I'm not rationalizing the behavior of animals that is fundamentally hostile to Western ideals and culture.
Nor am I.
In fact, I will be the first to say- ALL religion is IRRATIONAL.
And much like taunting the psychotic homeless person who is off his medications, making a film with the intent and purpose of antagonzing these irrational people is reckless and foolish.
Not to mention, the guy is a ******* criminal who cheated old people out of their pensions. (Again, and he's a hero of yours. Why does this not surprise me?)
