#2 I guess Rantburgers would be in trouble in Canada. We are still in the U.S. despite some efforts to neuter our First Amendment. Consider recent attempts to resurrect the Fairness Doctrine (which isn't). Consider the passes the MSM gives to the Amish in the press.

#3 Now that's one overstated article. This whole "Free Speech" vs "Other Rights" krep comes to a crashing halt when the so-called "guilty" party just plain refuses to play along.

I said something that you and the guv didn't like? You want to fine me and/or silence me? Just try. We don't have enough cops up here in the murder capital of Canada to go running after people for this kind of krep, so what are YOU gonna do about it? Gonna take me to jail yourself?

They always cave and write more letters and papers and court findings . . . . but . . . . . . . nothing gets done. It's the Canadian way.

So sue me. It don't work like that up here.
