Yeah, it's a hard problem, weighing peoples right to express themselves, even offensively, with their right not to be violently attacked. But ultimately, the courts got it right.
I don't blame the Muslims for getting so irrate, but I don't blame the bible beaters either. I blame the idiotic belief system that leads Muslims to think there is something wrong with eating pigs, and the idiotic belief system that leads the Christians to be afraid of mooslums. And all the tribalism surrounding that.
It's no different from protecting people's right to burn the flag or kneel during the anthem. That offense instigates a lot of hatred from red blooded mericans, but in the end they should just calm down and let people protest in peace.
