People have a right to be as offended as they like. Its when people confidently declare that things that offend them are offensive to the country, or god and so on that some take issue with .

You also see this when people claim to love freedom, but justify limiting the freedoms that offend them by claiming said freedoms are against gods will or will hurt the country and so on.
