The enemies of free speech are on the march By Wes Vernon
If there is anything the jackboots cannot take, it is humor at their expense. They don't like it when you sass them back in serious discourse, either. But a touch of "irony" that shows the emperor has no clothes? That is when they reach the breaking point.
Lighten up? No way
Hell hath no fury like a police state mentality made a laughing stock.
Such appears to be the lesson currently being learned by columnist Mark Steyn. A Canadian citizen who spends half the year living in the U.S. writing for U.S. newspapers, magazines, and book publishers, Steyn is in hot water with stone-faced Canadian authorities.
His "crime?" He wrote a book — laced with his brand of humor, and issuing a serious warning on the demise of Western civilization, specifically Europe and North America.
