Read it and weep. In Michigan, an exemplary young man was arrested for an obvious joke

It is happening here, too, using the Patriot Act to nullify Free Speech.

These laws, of course, aren’t designed to eliminate all offensive speech. If they were, then everyone would be a criminal, since virtually any speech could offend someone somewhere.

Really, the laws are meant to criminalize only speech deemed offensive by those in power. They are a selective poison to an unalienable human right.

WWII was supposed to end all of this and not put it on steroids today.
