The Canadianization of American liberty [Mark Steyn]
Jim DeMint speaks on the appallingly drafted "hate crimes" legislation whose language opens all kinds of doors, most of them unconstitutional. Senator DeMint also references various advances in "thought crime" from Europe and Canada, most of which will come as no surprise to readers of my posts in the Corner. On the one hand, it's good to see them raised on the floor of the United States Senate. On the other, the fact that they need to be raised in the Senate at all is a bleak comment on the remorseless march of soft despotism.
