So just what is unacceptable speech? The Dutch Court of Appeals may be indicting Geert Wilders for attacking Islam, but Justice Minister Ernst Hirsch Ballin has refused the request of the two major political parties in the governing coalition, as well as the opposition Freedom Party, to ban American Muslim preacher Khalid Yasin from entering the country.
Yasin has called for the death penalty for homosexuality, among other things. Ballin says he will be prosecuted too if it turns out that his speeches incite hatred. Guess we'll have to wait to see what happens. (Thanks to Jihad Watch.)
