I'll bet I could gather up a million people in America who would sign off their right to freedom of speech for a free Apple product and some free apps. I'm glad this country is not run by the majority.
Our freedom of expression is worth a million times more than stopping a few people pushing some evil religious agenda. 50 years from now, these nutbars will still be with us, voicing new inflammatory messages. The solution is not to silence them, but to educate everyone so the inflammatory message has no effect.
