Quote of the Day...

From Mark Steyn:

...in Britain, in Canada, in Australia (which is to say in some of the oldest free societies on earth and among the very few developed nations that did not succumb to the mid-20th century totalitarian fevers), it is now received wisdom that state power is required to “balance” free speech with competing societal interests as determined by regulatory bureaucrats.

Scary stuff, especially when it's easy to see that this trend has already started here (most especially in our universities)...
