B.williame, you can protect your freedom in other ways.

You can search out information, and share it with others, alerting them to the erosion of freedoms in Europe as Islamism continues its campaign to impose sharia in non-Muslim lands.

You can write, call, and otherwise influence your government officials, and share your concerns with them. If all they hear is lobbying from Islamists, that's what they'll respond to.

You can find bad guys in the community around you, and expose them. Use the papers, or the internet. Make digital videos of Islamists calling for violent jihad, or committing violent acts, and publish them on YouTube (a supposedly "moderate Muslim" who was gaining influence in the Virginia state government was exposed and taken down that way, when a video of his advocating jihad was posted).

Make 10, or 20, or 50 photocopies of the Muhammad cartoon, and release the copies from a tall building in the community where you live on a windy day.

Evil can only prevail if good men do nothing.
