If you love freedom, you must watch these video clips. A little background.... Remember the Muhammad cartoons that caused riots all over the Muslim world a year or two ago? So the clip is the editor of a Canadian publication that printed the cartoons making statements in front of the Alberta Human Rights Commission. It's basically a court that was created outside of the judicial system, and it has been co-opted from what it was started to do (mostly help poor people with housing situations like an evil developer trying to push people off their property and such) and turned in to a kangaroo court that seems to care more about promoting the interests of radical Muslims. So some Imam sued the editor through this Human Rights Commission (man, talk about newspeak).

The first video is the defendant's opening statement, and it's awesome. My favorite, however, might be the second clip, where he says he's done a hundred interviews where he discussed exactly why he published the cartoons, but for this joke of a court, he will only say that he did it with the worst of intentions, with every bad intention implied by the Imam's complaint, and that he has every right under the law to do so.
