Thread Name: BS: The death of free speech in the US&UK
Subject: RE: BS: The death of free speech in the US&UK
The Villan said Get tough now before we have a Yugoslavia type situation on our hands and Donuel morphed that into "Get tough now before we have an ethnic cleansing situation on our hands..."sic. "Sic," of course, means "I am reproducing this statement exactly, however erronious it may be." There was a lot more involved in the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia than the attempt to carve the multi-ethnic and multi-religious state of Bosnia into Serbian and Croatian enclaves, but a lack of freedom of speech was never an issue.
