Stand up comic charged with “hate speech” tells his story

September 27, 2008 By admin

Guy Earle (who I’ve written about here) in his own words, writing about his battles with Canada’s Human Rights Commissions:

Let’s pretend, just for a moment, that I am an unfunny, homophobic, misogynistic prick. Let’s all just take a little moment to count to ten and imagine it to be true. What kind of world is this, to allow me onstage? A free one!

PS: I’ve been linking to the Western Standard all week, as they’ve been nice enough to help promote our book during their Freedom of Speech Week. The editor tells me:

“Thanks for all the links this week, Kathy. They’ve been great. Just so you know, we got links from the CBC and the Globe & Mail.

“Just one link from you generated twice the traffic the CBC and Globe & Mail did *combined*…”

PPS: We talk about Guy Earle in our book The Tyranny of Nice.
