  1. There should be an article in the NYTimes about statutes proscribing free speech in England for that matter.

    Or the laws against criticizing the conventional version of the holocaust in Germany and Austria, where people spend years behind bars just for pointing out in print the scholarly work of American holocaust historians.

    Free speech only exists in the US, Norway, Sweden, and a few other places.
