They deserve a huge monetary loss for that decision.
What steps should the government take to "protect us" from this? Would you volunteer your grandchild or child to go into a shooting war over your "1st amendment rights" to see a movie?

Tasteless comedies are made into movies all of the time, including ones about our own government and the presidency. We Americans seem to enjoy treading on other's toes in order to get a rise out of them.
Here is a list of movies about the American Presidency. Not all are in good taste, but it depends on whose taste. What is wrong here, is that a threat has been made against the American people by a foreign power.. That is the issue. Not the taste or the subject matter or the right or the wrong of the plot. We can show we are not pleased officially, or act like it never happened.I have to believe that our not visible security forces are on it. If there is an indication that someone would harm our innocent movie goers, you would have to bet that our precious soldiers would respond. OR...our precious drones.
