Freedom of Speech

Be glad you live in Amerika.

AMSTERDAM — Dutch politician Geert Wilders appealed for freedom of expression Monday as he went on trial for alleged hate speech at a time when his popularity and influence in the Netherlands are near all-time highs.

Prosecutors say Wilders has incited hate against Muslims, pointing to a litany of quotes and remarks he has made in recent years. In one opinion piece he wrote "I’ve had enough of Islam in the Netherlands; let not one more Muslim immigrate," adding "I’ve had enough of the Quran in the Netherlands: Forbid that fascist book."

We take Freedom of Speech for granted. Many Amerikans have openly complained about Muslims and their impact on our culture. Imagine Holland with over 6% of the population being Muslim compared to Amerika with a less than 1% Muslim population. The Dutch are really fed up with the "Muslim Invasion" that has change their culture.

Now, the Dutch government, in a move of Krazy Political Correctness, has charged an out spoken critic of "Hate Crimes" for speaking out against the problem.

I wonder what would happen if they built a Mosque at Ground Zero in Amsterdam?
