That wasn't the case in the UK, where Jewish people got protection under race discrimination law, Christians got protections under blasphemy laws[1], but Muslims weren't protected by either.
It was fine to say things about Muslims and Islam that you could not say about Jews or Christians.
This loophole was used by far-right groups - the BNP, EDL, etc to avoid prosecution.
[1] And before you say the blasphemy laws were never used the film "Life of Brian" only got permissions for Glasgow cinemas in 2009, and Stewart Lee went through a very expensive blasphemy court case for "Jerry Springer the Opera".
