Angry Muslims trying to silence free speech again? Not really

NEW YORK/PARIS/OSLO (EJP)---The European Jewish Congress (EJC) announced Thursday it was considering taking legal action against the Norwegian publishers of a cartoon depicting religious circumcision, after its President Moshe Kantor denounced the etching for recalling “one by one all the major historical anti-Semitic motifs, the type of which incited attacks and even the mass murder of Jews in the past”...

Don't get me wrong, I support the rights of Jewish parents or any parents to circumsize their sons.

Raises a lot of issues here. I have to just shake my head everytime I read one of these stories from Europe where there is "legal action" being taken because someone says something someone finds politically incorrect. These countries claim to be "democracies" and have absolutely no regard for freedom of speech.

Of course, hardcore pornography is never restricted in these countries, even though everyone knows that small children see it on the internet all the time these days. Free speech for dirty movies, but not for political opinions. Very strange times we live in.

God bless the US Constitution that guarantees our rights to express controversial opinions.

Most countries don't have freedom of speech anymore.

That's a really stupid cartoon. They should protest on that alone.

Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 U.S. 444 (1969), was a landmark United States Supreme Court case based on the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The Court held that government cannot punish inflammatory speech unless that speech is directed to inciting, and is likely to incite, imminent lawless action...
