Political correctness

I don't know if it's necessary to show a film to ANYONE before it's released, just to keep from ruffling feathers. That even goes for showing it to the so-called right to get their support.
If we truly have freedom of speech, why not just put the film out there and let people decide whether or not it is offensive or not? Who cares if the Christians or Jewish community get mad, if we truly believe that freedom of speech exists?
If I remember correctly, there was a backlash against the Christian community for the protests about "Temptation," saying that moviemakers had a right to say whatever they wanted, and it didn't matter what the Christians thought. Now it looks like the shoe might be on the other foot, no?
