Today is 20 May 2010 and thus the First Annual Everybody Draw Muhammad Day. There have been protests against Facebook because they have a group supporting it—even to the point that Pakistan has blocked the entire site from their Internet providers. Censorship is rampant. Altogether a better need to show our solidarity against censorship, that there is no room for the sacred in the congress of free ideas. And while to defend free speech we must sometimes defend scoundrels; but sometimes we must also defend free speech against scoundrels.
