Many have that same highly charged emotional response to an action that many others considered just an expression of free speech. In a country (the US) which celebrates, brags about, and denigrates OTHER countries for their lack of free speech, it IS strange and even inconceivable for Americans to find fault with free speech - no matter the situation! Saudi Arabia and Russia have used this example to show that America is two-faced and situational about its greatest, world-leading principles.
