15. Wasn't really trying to mock or be cute. Sorry if that was how I came across.

I actually thought you were the one who was mocking, in advance, anyone who might dare to find disagreement with you or Europeans on the issue of free speech.

Sorry for the confusion in either event.

I was not equating the Holocaust with Global Warming- I was equating false, stupid, uninformed speech with false, stupid, uninformed speech. Nothing more, nothing less.

"Torture Denial" could have just as easily been my topical example.

Sure, Govts in Europe have the right to ban whatever they want- I still assumed that good people could disagree with banning certain ideas or certain speech-even when it is speech they don't like or that is flat out false.
