I think of this sometimes because in my cyber travels I’ve come across many a like minded individual from England or parts of Europe and worry for their safety. For myself, a gun owner, the occasional death threat from White supremacists or Lefty trolls can be easily dismissed because I have protection close at hand.

Not so bloggers like Lionheart (who is doing a magnificent series on the McCann case) who are denied the right to defend themselves by the feckless politicians who’ve allowed once great England to degenerate into near Balkanization. Nor the counter Jihad activists who were beaten near death during a rally in Sweden.

They and many like them are in danger every day of their lives because they live in countries that think it is more important to control the populace than allow free men and women to control their own destinies.
