Some good ideas have their day and then fade away. And then sometimes everything old gets tried again.
Censoring Nazis was a terrific idea.
I'm all for it. I think Nazis should be fought till they're defeated and the ones responsible for major crimes should be hanged. I'm a tad liberal when it comes to defining major crimes, but there is the legal system to even out my attitude. So we might see daylight while walking down the street after all. Courts are a moderating influence on folks like me. Except when folks like me are in charge. Then they're more like kangaroo courts with a strong bent toward revenge rather than sense and justice. Even worse than that, though, would be a court with a mission to seek out and destroy all hints of crime, even if those crimes haven't yet been committed. Thought Crimes. Crimes hunted down and expunged before they happen. Hunters in offices seething with righteous rage and moral fury. Clerks with fire in the eye and a determination to-- git 'em.
We got them already. Nazis are done. We got them years before I was even born, and I'm an old guy. They got got when Dietrich was one of the hottest babes on the planet. Getting Nazis was a great idea then. We got them. We hanged some. Not enough, but we hanged some and made a point. I like it. We got 'em. And then we moved on.
But now, way too many years later, we have people still hunting Nazis. There are lots of folks in the world who are bad enough to feel good enough about hanging, to feel some enthusiasm for it. But mostly we don't go after folks who deserve hanging. We find instead we have heresy hunters, creepy little clerks in offices who are so wrapped up in their little dramas of the mind that they've completely lost sight of the world the rest of us live in. We get the same drama with a whole new cast and a whole new set, and the plot doesn't make any sense at all.
Deitrich against Hitler. Yeah!
Cheri Blair against "discrimination"? Uh....
The BC Human Rights Tribunal Against Mark Steyn?
You get the picture.

You should hang for that last photo. But don't worry people, soon Dag won't be able to set foot in Europe without getting hanged; and who know Canada may join the EU-NAU one day:

Now I know why people smoke pot. It's because they're brain-dead to start with.
OK, my second guess is kind of stupid so I'll forget that one.
For those who don't smoke pot, those who actually have some grasp of un-stoned reality, this is pretty scary. Yes, Sherie Blair, but I refer also to the hidden death penalty and the dictatorship of the E.U elitists. I don't know which one I find scarier. Damn. People know me far too well.
