But it’s true that aside from a few havens of free speech on the web, nobody dare go there.

Ironic that the attempt was to cover up a question about protecting whistle-blowers.

The comparison that springs to my mind is Blackwater, the mercenary military group that was deemed to be outside the laws of the country where it operated, Iraq, AND outside the laws of the US, where it is incorporated.

Watch out for more of this kind of thing.

Glad to see you guys “across the pond” keeping free speech alive and the government inline via blogs and twitter, show them that suppression of free speech will not pass. Media suppression in China, Iran, then UK…what’s next US? I hope not for our sake over here.

I’m trying to inform them over here as well voice0reason
