Why Americans Should Cherish The First Amendment

Yesterday the UK Telegraph posted a story about the trial of Geert Wilders.  A judge has refused to dismiss the case against Mr. Wilders.  Mr. Wilders is facing trial on charges of incited hatred and discriminations against Muslims. 

The article reports:

"But reading out the ruling on Wednesday, presiding judge Marcel van Oosten said the case would go ahead. He rejected most of the defence's objections such as its questioning of the court's authority to hear the case in the first place and of the way that the prosecutors had pursued the trial.

"However, judges did agree with the defence that part of the indictment against Mr Wilders should be dropped. In it he allegedly refers to the Koran as "fascist" and said it should be banned.

"The judges said that in including the quotes in the indictment prosecutors were going beyond the brief set out by the Amsterdam appeals court."

This is a dangerous case.  One aspect of Sharia Law is that any criticism of Islam is illegal.  Criticism of Islam can result in very harsh penalties.  To condemn this man because he has spoken out against the extreme control radical Islam has over those who practice it is a step toward endorsing Sharia Law and will negatively impact the right of all of us to be honest about what we believe.

If we used to think in a broader term then there are millions of people in this world who exists and seek for the custom paper writing services of someone. So the best thing is we make our life useful in term of helping peoples in their life.

Security Gear

Security Gear - Before making any purchases, check with your local government to confirm what is possible when it comes to arming your security team. In the United States, this is usually less of an issue than in other countries, but each locality has its own regulations. Established security companies will be up to date on their community’s laws and regulations and will save you the hassle and expenses of security gear purchases, maintenance and training.

I don't understand if the west world is getting educated or going more in to ignorance. The hate these people show all around and among themselves only proves how ignorant they are and how they belittle people around them. That is really a shame and I hope they grow up and do something productive instead of being cheap and selfish. There is no doubt many advances have been made, thanks to them, but being ignorant is bad.
