I agree they were offended. But does that justify their actions? I don't act like they did when I'm offended, do you?

But there has been no comparable show of backbone in America, where (as of Friday) only the New York Sun has had the fortitude to the run some of the drawings. There is nothing honorable or desirable about publishing cartoons that are offensive to 20% of the world's population. I will not argue with you that the cartoons may have been in poor taste.....but to burn embassies and loot Christian shops as a reaction to those cartoons........sorry but that's way over the top for me. The radical Muslims have done much worse and you don't see Americans and Europeans burning their embassies.
