Cameron Again Says People Have a “Right to Offend,” Doesn’t Mention Garron Helm

Shortly after the Moslems did Charlie, some people in the UK were reprinting the cartoons, and David Cameron was asked what he thought about it. He said that people had a right to offend others. I satirized a Guardian article about it, replacing the terms and making it about Garron Helm, who was sent to prison for offending a Jew. Literally everything that he said in defense of the Charlie cartoons could have been said about Helm’s Tweets.

Yesterday, Cameron came out and said the same thing, again, in response to the Antipope’s weird statements about how Charlie deserved the attack.

The Guardian:

Cameron was asked about the pope’s remarks in an interview with the CBS news programme Face the Nation, broadcast on Sunday. He said: “I think in a free society, there is a right to cause offence about someone’s religion. I’m a Christian; if someone says something offensive about Jesus, I might find that offensive, but in a free society I don’t have a right to wreak vengeance on them. We have to accept that newspapers, magazines, can publish things that are offensive to some, as long as it’s within the law. That is what we should defend.”

We need to keep pressing this issue. The doublethink going on is simply incomprehensible.

Making fun of people is a fundamental human right. Unless it is Jews you are making fun of, then you have to go to prison.

If we are legislating emotional responses – and we are, whether Cameron admits it or not – then it is hard to believe the emotional response of the Jews to holodenial or accusations of collective criminality would be more extreme than the reaction of Moslems to cartoons; there are riots taking place across the planet in response to these cartoons as I write.

Note that I do believe in freedom of speech, as it is laid out in the US constitution. Of course, the Jews have redefined this to mean freedom of obscenity, which was a big part of what Charlie Hebdo did, and something that I don’t think should be blanket legal. But for political and religious speech, which the mockery of Islam would fall under, they have a right.

I am not criticizing Cameron for supporting Charlie’s cartoons, I am criticizing the hypocrisy of allowing attacks on Islam, even praising them as brave and talking all of this “I am Charlie,” while throwing people in prison for even mentioning Jews.
