Shriveled visions of freedom

Mark Steyn decides to share the risk: "I have no desire to end up living like Geert Wilders or Kurt Westergaard, never mind dead as Fortuyn and van Gogh. But I also wish to live in truth, as a free man, and I do not like the shriveled vision of freedom offered by the Dutch Openbaar Ministrie, the British immigration authorities, the Austrian courts, Canada’s “human rights” tribunals, and the other useful idiots of Islamic imperialism. So it is necessary for more of us to do what Ayaan Hirsi Ali recommends: share the risk. So that the next time a novel or a cartoon provokes a fatwa, it will be republished worldwide and send the Islamic enforcers a message: Killing one of us won’t do it. You’d better have a great credit line at the Bank of Jihad because you’ll have to kill us all."

"Killing one of us won’t do it. You’d better have a great credit line at the Bank of Jihad because you’ll have to kill us all..." It's truly sad that the world is like this right now but your descriptive use of the English language had me chuckling. :) I may have to share this with my husband. (He's currently in a very hot, sandy clime...)

Lemon Stand,
If you do share Mark Steyn's words with your husband, please tell him thank you and give him my best regards, for he is doing his part in sharing the risk.
