Irish Eyes are Crying

Obviously, the lawmakers in Ireland, formerly a free country, have not been paying attention to the free speech debacle occurring in Canada with Canada's badly misnamed Human Rights Commissions. Now Ireland has made insulting anything held sacred by any religion into a crime. Irish Times. The law even includes a book-burning provision.

These sorts of laws have been commonly used by radical Islamists to stifle any criticism of Islam. In their view, any criticism of Islam is blasphemous. This law is like handing C4 to a suicide bomber.

Are they out of their minds?

Even scarier, the United Nations is contemplating an international proposal to do the same thing.
