The best way to expose beasts is for them to do that themselves. Muslims will not listen to non-Muslims, but they will expose themselves by their actions.
"So you're willing to sacrifice other people's lives for a cause. Not as a last resort, but just to make a point. That makes you a fanatic yourself. You're part of the problem, not of the solution."
Your implied conclusion is that there is a peaceful solution to conflict with the inherently vicious Superstition of Islam (which BTW has killed far more Muslims than anyone else).
It's not fanatical to anticipate own-side casualties in CULTURAL WAR or any other war.
"I wonder if the US based creators of this film can be charged with negligent homicide. I sure hope so."
Why? Is there some obligation not to attack political beliefs????
Supersition IS politics, coupled with the insane (because unsupported by evidence) belief in supernatural Deities.
Superstitionists seek to CENSOR speech by pretending it's an excuse for their beastial actions. Caving in to them is worse than losing a few lives they'd find a way to take anyway.
Resist religion. ALL of it. If a person cannot use evidence to PROVE their Sky Fairie is real, they are bad humans and their Superstition not more than a way to spiritually enslave themselves and others.

Don't try to "fix" the problem, but contact an attorney and see if you can't win a lawsuit. Much as yokels bemoan lawyers, without your OWN lawyer you have no rights.
The film "caused" nothing. Islamists CHOSE violence, which reflects on their Superstition, not the film.
This perfectly exposes Islamists, and is well worth the few casualties the Islamists inflict. If _I_ attack Superstition that makes me not PC and a Bad Man.
Well, have some Superstition direct from the source! In your face, by their choice.
There are plenty of electric on-demand heaters, but they often require a replacement of the main service panel because they draw quite a bit of electricity.
Much as I like having gas heat backup and a gas stove for cooking, I'm not into adding another gas line and overpaying for hot water while dealing with more LP deliveries. SC has nuclear power and electric bills are reasonable.
"People blah blah about the 2nd amendment but power doesn't sensibly come from a well oiled 9mm except in action movies"
Power certainly flows from the barrel of a Kalashnikov, which can be used to obtain more powerful weapons from the State itself.
Without the ability to kill your enemies you are helpless. Laws are mere paper constructs, but violence is real and powerful. Ask Qaddafi! Oh, wait, violence solved that problem too.
The Assadists in Syria made many laws, but Syrians are dealing with that problem by killing Assadists.
It's perfectly reasonable to hate religion because Sky Fairies cannot be proven to exist, and because all religious doctrine exalts the religious and directs them to take over society based on fantastic doctrines.
Some are worse than others, but all are unworthy of modern man.
Prove your Sky Fairies exists NOW, and I'll recant and grovel before he/she/it. Otherwise fuck off.

Repos are fun. If you need to remove a vehicle from property, you can back a wheel-lift wrecker under it, lift, and drag it down the street with brakes locked and tires smoking. Deal with security measures down the road, or dolly or rollback the vehicle for unlocking later. Been there, done that.

Those were SPECIFICALLY "cult of personality" States which happened to have nominally "atheist" leaders.
Note also in the case of Russia the Church was welded to the Tsarist monarchy and therefore fit for destruction as a LITERAL enemy of the people. Stalin was nasty but NEVER forget that the Tsars and their Church so wrecked Russia that Revolution was a genuinely "good idea" at the time.

US unions became part of organized crime because there was no way to get conventional justice.

The calculating "maniacs" want you to think that so you surrender your right to attack the unsupportable nonsense they wish to force upon the world.
If you attack Communism and their intelligence folks murder you with a ricin pellet, are you responsible for your own murder?

You can't troll people who don't CHOOSE to be trolled!
Piss Christ didn't cause Christians to kill people, and THAT was a much more stylish troll.
If your Superstition (all religions are bullshit, prove /Deity exists or fuck off) can't deal with criticism, it reflects on the Superstition.

Religion breeds zealots because it uses fantasy to exalt believers over those not them.
Superstition, ALL of it, is bad because it represents an attack on the search for truth.
No modern man has any business believing that unsupported by EVIDENCE, and there is none for Sky Fairies.
Trolling them gives them ample opportunity to demonstrate the true aspects of their Superstition.
The results speak volumes.
It's perfectly reasonable to hate religion because Sky Fairies cannot be proven to exist, and because all religious doctrine exalts the religious and directs them to take over society based on fantastic doctrines.

"there's got to be some internet bazillionaire who doesn't want to fly into space, but really wants a f**cking wooly mammoth in his back yard"
He can marry my mother-in-law instead.
Attacks on Superstition only annoy the Superstitious.
Reject that shit. Anyone who cannot PROVE their Sky Fairie exists merits no respect.

Thanks for playing though.
Citations of specifically similar conduct in similar quantity needed.
All people who believe in Superstitions deserve contempt for that belief.
Religion deserves no respect because it is not supported by evidence.
Prove your Sky Fairie exists, NOW, irrefutably (Mystery and Faith aren't evidence) and I'll recant and grovel before his/her/its Noodly Appendage.
Religion is slavery to other humans, that is all, and that's why it comes with "marching orders".
Absent PROOF of Deity, religion and those who believe it deserve scorn and contempt for promoting anti-truth.
