If Florida Governor Charlie Crist signs the take-your-guns-to-work
measure into law, the state’s residents won’t have to worry about being
rendered defenseless in the workplace. This is a noble aim, and I can

Wilders is guilty of hate speech, and Dutch firms are threatening a lawsuit
against the embattled legislator if they’re hurt by a boycott of their
products. Yet, while most find fault with what the film explicitly
presents, I take issue with something implied.
