Geert Wilders (Right wing Dutch MP) recently had his youtube video where he had some, contraversiol views about Islam (which tbh are growing but banned from being admited in public). But despite that I am made very sick by the fact that it can't be found (at least by me) on the internet, if anyone has a link to it, I'd be much obliged.
Whatever happned to freedom of speech, it seems Christianity, some religons and taboos can be ridiculed without fear of repression and repremands and every other religion cannot be mentioned in a negative context. It sickens me that Youtube hasn't got the balls to leave it on their site. I don't care anymore if he is a loon going out on one about Islam, it should still be archived somewhere so we can make up our own minds about it. My appolagies if this has already been covered.

I really have next to no opinion on the subject of censorship, because part of me says that people should be intelligent and educated so that they can see things which are surely crockery, and see them for what they are. But on the other side, I know that people are inherently gullible, even I, and will follow whichever has the strongest pull on them. In that case, censorship for the good of the people sounds good, but who decides what to censor? It would have to be a person, which brings us back to the first problem.

From a sort of William Blake perspective, maybe all forms of media and knowledge should be free to bombard us, so that we can forge our own mistakes and ideals from the full plater on offer, rather than just what one body or person desires to be uncensored?
