VPL sanctioning Greg Felton

I liked this:
Just one bit of fallout is that the Vancouver Public Library's management has received several requests for counter-measures, such as one proposal for a display of the Mohammed cartoons that touched off riots and at least 100 deaths after a Danish newspaper published them a couple of years ago.
But yeah right, there is a clear and reprehensible double standard in that rationales such as "intellectual freedom" and an "open and public exchange of contradictory views" don't have any place when it comes to material critical of Islam.
