I Ban Thee, Lithuania!
http://criticalculture.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 07/ i-ban-...
Last month, the Lithuanian parliament "passed the toughest restrictions anywhere in the former Soviet Union on the public display of Soviet and Nazi symbols." Apparently, the proper way to do battle against the reemergence of politically-undesirable regimes that restricted personal freedom is by, well, restricting personal freedom. It makes sense, really: fighting fire with fire, and all. In fact-call me crazy, perhaps; crazy for democracy and liberal values!-but I have a plan that involves rounding up ("concentrating", if you will) all those Lithuanians who even think about Nazism or Communism, and then, when they're all together, "exterminating" them.
