Not the most informative post I’ve ever read...

Looks like there is a ban on him entering the UK:

The Home Office says his opinions “threaten community security and therefore public security”.

So much for free speech.

How come this rule doesn’t apply to the Muslims who want to behead everyone who disagrees with them?

Here is a more informative article on the background.

The Brits decided to deny Wilders entry to Britain for the London premier of his "anti-Islamic" movie. According to the article, "the film features verses from the Koran with images of terrorist attacks in New York, London and Madrid and calls on Muslims to remove 'hate-preaching' verses from the text."

The British decision has sparked a diplomatic controversy between Britain and the Dutch.
