"You do not prevent violence by outlawing certain kinds of speech," according to Flemming Rose, cultural editor of The Jyllands-Posten, a Danish newspaper which published 12 cartoons of Mohammad in 2005.

Rose discusses the importance of not giving into fear during this week's episode of "Capitol Source."
