In the US, you cannot sue someone for blasphemy. The government does not recognize the concept that a person can be punished for failing to show due respect to someone else's religious icon.

In your country, the government does allow someone to be punished for failing to show respect to someone else's religious icon.

Pretty simple to see which country repects freedom of speech.

That law are dead meat in practical! And theres lot off pressure on to get rid of it. Exsample: The muhammed cartoons where not even the muslims could raise a case against the nawspaper!

Do you really want me to believe that its not possible to make a civil lawsuit for blasphemy or racism in the U.S?
