Canadian Muslim leader still attacking free speech
Muslims just don't seem to "get" free speech -- except when it's freedom to attack Jews and Israel, of course. That's ALWAYS free speech! Any notion of abstract or impartial justice seems to be alien to Muslims. How something affects "our tribe" seems to be the only criterion of justice that they have. It's very primitive thinking.
"Hate speech creates a "silencing dynamic" that excludes disadvantaged groups from civil participation, according to Mohamed Elmasry, national president of the Canadian Islamic Congress.
In a submission to Richard Moon, a University of Windsor law professor hired by the Canadian Human Rights Commission to review its online hate speech mandate, Prof. Elmasry writes that "the state should act to empower those who are disadvantaged by hate speech, and that may mean lowering the voices of some in order that others may be heard."
He called for mandatory press councils, and an end to "media monopoly," and said the CHRC was wrong to dismiss his recent complaint of Islamophobia in Maclean's magazine, which "aired its opinions to more than two million readers, but CHRC did not hold a hearing for Canadian Muslims and experts to voice their views."

No doubt Professor Moon will reflect Elmo's "concerns", at the expense of everyone else. He was hand-picked to do so.
Is this doofus any relation to SUN MUNG WEIRD MOON by any chance?
I'm always amused at how these so-called intellectuals and other self-proclaimed "intelligent" people try to apply logic and reason when dealing with Muslims, especially the radicals. I'm sure the Muslims also find it amusing, and a clear sign of weakness.
And yet no word of disapproval by the always offended, always whining jews. Hmmm...
According to Islam itself, anyone daring to even question the validity or authority of Islam is to be considered an infidel, and must thus be put to death. It's in the Koran. look it up.
This should continually bring a chill to any non-Muslim.
