Quotation of the Day for February 27, 2012



"It is the duty of governments to protect their citizens from harm. It is not government's task to protect its citizens' sensitivities, however justifiable and acute, from peacefully expressed views, however bizarre."

- William Saunderson-Meyer, "A sudden, suspect French antipathy to denialism", on a proposed French law that would make it a criminal offence to deny the Armenian genocide.
