Moral Rights or Legal Rights?

One of the events that is most talked about at the moment is the whole religous conflict between the United States and the middle east. Recently, the New York Times has written an article speaking upon multiple protests, most of them violent,  that have broken out in the middle east because of a video that was released. The article states that in that video, the prophet of the Muslims Muhammad was  made fun of or mocked. The film maker did not break the law in any way, however, in my opinion he did abuse the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. The reason i believe that he abused the First Amendment is because this amendment technically gives anyone the right to believe in and say anything they desire. However, that doesn't mean you have the right to diss a believe. Yes, i understand that making fun of a believe is not illegal but it isn't morally correct. People should respect and take into consideration that religion is a sensitive topic. Im sure that everyone knows when they have crossed a line, i know i do. I know that if i wanted to spread my believes i had the right to. I can talk to others about my believe and where it has gotten me. However, burning a sacred book of a religion that goes against mine is definately crossing the line. just like a religous scholar said, "We want countries to understand that thay need to take into consideration the people and not just the governments."
