Brit liable for arrest for ......Flaming on a blog: http://wolfhowling.blogspot.com/2008/01/britains-prosecution-of-blogger.html
Quote:
Freedom of speech is under assault today in Britain. A British blogger whom I read, Lionheart, has posted on his website that he expects to be arrested upon his return to the United Kingdom for things that he has posted on his blog. Likely as a result of his commentary on Islam, he will be charged with stirring up racial hatred.
Imagine how long I could get. Sometimes I can't help but think Limeys are assholes. And I really don't want to. Whoops.

Has england ever had free speech? I mean, I dont think they have an english version of the US's first amendment. Maybe they do, but certainly europe in general prefers to limit free speech in favor of whatever multicultural trend is fashionable for the decade.

"Sometimes I can't help but think Limeys are assholes."
The person getting arrested is a "Limey." Does that make him an asshole? If so, how can all the other limey's be considered assholes for shutting him up? Logic? What?

What about the ones who upheld them? Was Winston Churchill an asshole?

Generalizations are just that, in general. A specific case like Winston Churchill, or Lionheart doesn't negate a generality.

Generalizations have no place in categorizing groups of people. All generalizations are flawed because there are exceptions, and because of this it would be more accurate to not make a generalization than to make one. I generally try to be accurate in debate.

Generalizations are not universalities. They're speaking generally -- generally, grass is green. sometimes it's not. i've seen yellow grass and brown grass, but GENERALLY, grass is green.

Grass is not people, hence:

How silly. That would throw out centuries of medical, psychological, anthropological and (spit) sociological research.

Yeah.. a lot of people spend a lot of time doing exactly what you say we shouldn't be doing. Lot of money in making generalizations and categorizing people.

Those who bitch about generalizations rarely have solid arguments against them and fail to realize that life has been, is and will be full of them. Generalizations are often spot on.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
