Very sad for American freedoms and our way of life. If you don't like the movie fine don't see it but NOBODY has the right to threaten you with death over exercising your 1st amendment rights and dictate what you can and cannot see or say. Especially a crazy, inbreed, foreign communist dictator. Who I might add has shown propaganda videos of North Korea destroying the U.S. I don't blame Sony as much as I blame the theaters. All the major theater chains refused to release it so Sony was in a lose lose situation. Sony does have some blame though as they should have said that the movie is postponed until they can figure out the best way to release it due to the theaters refusal.
Make no mistake that this is a situation where the demands of terrorist were met. It might not have been the U.S. Government that did it but it is still very Un American. This will now spiral out of control. There will now be terrorist threats against American companies on a regular basis. I don't think people realize the implacations this will have on our freedoms and way of life. There is already another picture that portrayed North Korea cancelled over this. If any news, art, movies Ect are censored because of this then we have lost so much more than a stupid comedy. Not to mention what could happen to other businesses. What if ISIS made a statement saying that if Wal-Mart didnt do this or that they would start blowing them up. Fear shouldn't dictate our way of life.
The U.S. Government needs to take action against North Korea. Something that will send a clear message that your not going to infringe on our freedoms and way of life. We will not be bullied and if you try you will be sorry. They also need to somehow protect businesses from the fear of getting sued if something like this happens again. Everyone should be able to express freedom of speech in this country without fear. This whole situation is deeply disturbing for the future of this country.
