6. Wow, the comments to the Toronto Sun are much more polite than you'd find
in and American paper.

As for the boy's free speech rights, we don't know what else was in the email-- threats? Besides, he's not an American, and so has no inherent "right" to come here. He wasn't arrested. Except for not being able to come to the US, his life is unchanged.

I'm confused about how a TV show about 9/11 would make him mad at Obama in the first place. Obama was a state senator in Illinois back then, IIRC, and virtually unknown outside Illinois. He had nothing to do with it.
