Constitutional Connection: First Amendment "...or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press;"

Explanation of Connection: In this political cartoon it shows how this newspaper has the right to produce a cartoon about Mohammed and Islam but instead chose not to, because it would be disrespectful. And the man on the right says that the Muslims could kill them. I think that this is a good thing, because as long as the information being portrayed is accurate and came from a reliable source, why not tell everyone else the truth? But I agree with the editor, because this cartoon that they wanted to release could possibly trigger violence.
