The Thought Police

As I posted earlier:
POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS TO SUPPRESS REALITY.

This is a commentary from Beyond The News by David Aikman.
Rise of the Thought Police

Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair is basically popular in America. But there's another side to Blair that isn't so charming, the culture of political correctness that his Labor government has unleashed in Britain.

In one recent case, an Oxford undergraduate, in high spirits because of just-completed final exams, was arrested for asking a mounted policeman, "Officer, do you realize your horse is gay?" In another, a prominent British Muslim, Sir Iqbal Sacranie, was interrogated by police for saying on TV that gay behavior was unacceptable. The third case involved a retired evangelical couple who were investigated by police for requesting permission to put up posters to combat gay propaganda.

These are three examples of a witch-hunt throughout Britain for homophobia, the vice that tolerant liberals won't tolerate. It's time for the British police to return to investigating real crimes, not imposing thought control on the country.
