I am a big supporter of free speech. It is my number one issue. I voted against Gore/Lieberman in 2000 for free speech reasons alone, due to Lieberman's attitute on the subject. (My worthless California vote went to the Libertarian.) While I support Feingold for president, I do also have some, fairly minor, free speech concerns with McCain/Feingold (although Feingold's record on all free speech issues but electioneering is nothing short of exemplorary).
Therefore, I must support the Danes in the "Cartoon Violence" affair. The largest part of the concept of free speech involves the right to publish content that will be offensive to some. Without support of such content, free speech does not exist.
It is starting to appear to me that Islam is inherently incompatible with the concept of free speech. If the choice is between Islam and free speech, I choose free speech. America should too.
