Oh, agreed. But then a muslim might ask why it is so desirable to make cartoons about islam, or a pro-immigration might ask why anyone should be allowed to be against multiculturalism.
That's the problem many people have with true freedom of speech: it also works for those you disagree with. Even if in the football case it is not really a political statement but a nasty joke. Modern football is a bit like government-regulated and subsidized tribal warfare.
