It's Too Easy To Offend
Hot on the heals of the David Irving case is that of Ken Livingstone, who has been ruled against for comparing Jewish journalist to a concentration camp guard.
Why is that people (especially where religon is concerned) are so easy to offend? Why can't people state their opinion if they want to? How long before everywhere ends up with a "have a nice day!" culture of insincere platitudes purely to avoid offending anyone?
