He is not the first to try and push this thru. This is usually attempted by by a Muslim country though. I wonder if it passes would Ahmadinejad be able to give the same type of speeches at the U.N.?

Why is everyone still pretending that some movie no one has seen is responsible for the terrorism, murders, and protests that began on the anniversary of 911?

I agree.
I'm also wary of an 'October Surprise' to keep Obama in the whitehouse soon.

Sounds great! So Christians wouldn't be able to be attacked for expressing their opinions on Islam?! Oh wait, maybe that's not what he means...

I'm very disappointed. I thought Turkey was more moderate than this.

You do have to remember, the U.S. started this type of hate speech.
What type of hate speech? Allowing people to express their own opinion about whatever religion, government, economic system, ice cream flavor that they want? Yeah, it's awesome!

Let's get straight the fact that disagreeing with Islam or drawing a cartoon about it does not equal hate.
Now that that bullcrap logic is out of the way let's focus on actual hate speech directed at Islam (such as that idiotic video). Guess what. It is that idiots right to make those claims. One that I will absolutely defend. Just as it is my right to call the maker an idiotic tool that needs to find something to turn his pathetic life around. be it religion, community service, sports whatever.
No!
Freedom for people who hate Islam to express that fact. Freedom for intelligent people to rebut them. Freedom for curious onlookers to form their own opinions. Awesome!

You're forgetting.... these are America's freedoms, not the same freedoms accepted by many other countries. Specifically the middle east.
It's ok though, we'll just invade all those countries and impose those types of freedoms.

when i was little i learned not to **** with people, that dont like to get ****ed with.
and if i ****ed with those people, i was ready for a war/fight.
so basically i'm saying those guys doing the cartoons are cowards.
if they wanna draw a cartoon they should. but they must realize that their action will have backlash.
so to anyone who wants to draw/write such crap next time, present yourself as a target book a plane ticket to a couple of arab countries and anounce your precense in the cartoon. dont let innoncent people take the heat for you. thats just coweardace.
if you cant take the heat when you **** with someone. dont **** with them.
this has nothing to do with freedom of speech.
this has everything to do with doing something that you know will anger certain "nutty people" and have deadly consequences.
it is just retarded.
it's like going to the so climbing into the lion cage start poking the lion, but with a child as human shield and a full body protection suit. so only the innocent child gets eaten by a lion.
if i will ever poke a, lion i will do it like a man.
all those cartoon writers are bitch ******

So, black people should have stopped voting Republican to avoid being lynched by white Democrats.

People should be allowed to express their freedom of speech by making a movie offensive to Islam but then they shouldn't be allowed to express their freedom of speech in protest of that film!
Another contradiction of the atheist dogma.
Does said protest involve murder? Destruction of property? Assualt on foreign embassies? Oh it does? Then no.
If it is a group marching, chanting slogans, holding signs then by all means protest your hearts out.
If the leaders in Turkey want to make a law outlawing the criticism of religion, they can do that. I don't care for it at all personally. My biggest concern is whether or not it will be fairly enforced or if only Islam will end up being protected from criticism.
