Action urged on far-right website

Quote:
A far-right website which publishes leftwingers' addresses has come under fire in the Commons in the wake of a knife attack on a union activist.
Alec McFadden narrowly avoided being blinded in the attack, which resulted in cuts to his face and hands.
Labour MP Angela Eagle urged ministers to take action against Redwatch after the attack at her constituent's home.
Home Office Minister Vernon Coaker said it was difficult to close down websites like Redwatch which are hosted abroad.

No, as it is free speech, unfortunate as that speech IS, it is still protected, at least in the US anyway.
However, this kind of irresponsible crap will get them ALL shut down, right AND left.


Not a day goes by that I don't see something that reinforces my belief that people are idiots.
