But theres a difference between some extremists committing violence and a
crowd of 15,000 attacking an embassy because a government won’t silence and
punish a newspaper for exercising their right to satire. That is what sets
this a part from every other act of violence you listed: the totally surreal
justification for it.

Like thousands rioting in LA because a court ruling didn’t go the way they
wanted? I seem to recall about 50 killed, was that justified? Mob rule can do
some strange things to people.

Fair enough - that was a pretty lame reason to riot. I remember my High School
shutting off access to cable and radio when the verdict was read during the OJ
Simpson trial in case there was problems. Pretty lame and unjustified if you
ask me.
