Lawyer at Whatcott trial writes:
In a free society, citizens make up their own minds about what is true or false, right or wrong, loving or hateful. Free citizens don’t let politicians, bureaucrats and judges make these decisions on their behalf. Those who are happy with Wednesday’s court decision will gleefully pull quotes from Mr. Whatcott’s flyers and cheer the court’s denunciation of his opinions. But they won’t explain why they, as citizens of a free nation, want to give up the power to make up their own minds about other people’s opinions, or why they want to transfer this power to government.
