Damn fools.

I believe there are already laws that cover the murders at the Kosher deli in Paris last week, the vandalism of synagogues and the assaults on Jews throughout Europe’s “no-go” zones.

The dirty secret behind all the proposed “blaspheming the Prophet” laws is that what has made them plausible is the precedent of making “Holocaust Denial” illegal.

Free speech is free speech. The alternative is totalitarianism, and for Europe’s Jewish community, extinction.

I never for the life of me understood making “Holocaust Denial” illegal. A person can deny any fact but that doesn’t make it so. On the other hand, some have proposed making global warming deniers criminals too.
