| UK mirror: YANKS COCK UP THE RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH |
| 2006-02-09 |
| HERE'S a challenge to all of those bravehearts currently banging on about how they'd fight to their dying breath to preserve our right to free speech. Pick up your gun, use up your Virgin air miles and go shoot those fundamental religious fanatics who've just suppressed a 62-year-old knight of the British realm's right to express himself. I'm talking about Sir Mick Jagger having two songs censored by American TV networks during Sunday's Super-bowl, for fear they would upset the country's dominant Christian right. Did he call Jesus gay or Mary a whore? No. He mentioned a grain-eating farmyard animal. .... A really nasty attempt to deflect anger from the muslims and toward the US. Our censorship idiots don't help. |
