"Censorship is persecution" sez Mr Jim Confused-of-this-Parish. So he disapproves the provisions of the Race Relations Acts, I take it, which constitute, since the demise of the Lord Chamberlain's department, about the only actual instance of legal censorship remaining on our statute books?

He doesn't seem to know the difference between rational criticism [such as objecting to the perils undergone by Christians in many Islamic societies - see post from bobad a few back - or preferring that our soldiers be not hacked to death on our public streets by those with a self-declared Islamist agenda], and 'persecution' of an entire demographic.

Trouble is, he is a right Humpty Dumpty when it comes to persecution, which he overdefines to the point where the term loses all meaning.

But I expect he will feel I am persecuting him by saying so. Ooohhh dear!
