For John, BLUF: We have to resist efforts to make things "hate speech", which is just another justification for murdering those you don't agree with. Nothing to see here; just move along.
This time from Nation of Change, we have an article on continuing attacks on (or better, murders of) Bangladeshi Bloggers. Have I just been asleep, or has there been a recent increase, world wide, in murders of those who would voice their opinions in one form of media or another. I am sure glad I live in the United States, where we have both a First Amendment and police forces that pay attention (e.g., Garland, Texas). On the other hand, I worry about police forces that overly intrude on our privacy as a way of keeping us safe. That isn't good either.
