Personally, I would like to imprison all of the anti-war mother sheehan's of the nation. I'd like to put all of ANSWER, Code Pinko, etc, behind bars for at least 5 years.

The problem, of course, is that little thing we have here called a constitution, which protects freedom of speech.

Stupid German tricks like this can only lead to more infringement on the right to think whatever the heck we want to.

America is fundamentally different from Europe - even from England. Our Founders believed in free speech - even freedom for unpopular and stupid speech, in fact ESPECIALLY for unpopular and stupid speech. Nothing has changed - we're still different from Europe, we still have freedoms that they don't have. THANK GOD. In Europe, they'll soon be imprisoning Christians who counsel against homosexuality. The First Amendment will make that harder to do in America (not that the liberals won't try)
