Thank God I live in the USA then, where we still have freedom of speach, and this little tool called the Common Law torts of malicious prosecution, abuse of process, and false imprisonment. The reality is that as of that Supreme Court ruling, the paranoia you folks speak of is not coming to pass over here in the free world... :p This doesn't speak to the moral issue. Just because something -can- be done does not mean it -should- be done. Only the legal issue is spoken for here. It may very well, and probably is, morally wrong. But that is not in any way connected to legality. My comments were to a claim that something was questionably legal, not to a claim on its moral stance. As for you people that believe these little internet rumors of what is happening in the English speaking second and third world, do you have URLs to case law to prove what you claim is true. Not tabloid news articles, but actual judicial cases. You might be right, but until you show me a legal scholar and a case history, you lack credibility.

Truth has no value without backing by unfounded belief.
