The bible is going to be outlawed as hate speech in Europe. Sounds like the beginnings of a police state to me!
And the general media drift certainly isn't "It's Charleton Heston's fault!". Go throw rocks at Michael Moore for that one...

Not now it isn't the "general drift", but for most of the late 90's it was, and I won't be surprised if it is again. Michael Moore's not the only asshole in the "media" who blame other people for the criminal misuse of an inanimate object.
