Update 1/30/08: Gates of Vienna blog has up-to-date news on Lionheart, calls him ‘canary in the coal mine for western free speech’ here. Don’t miss audio of Lionheart on a US radio station.

I don’t have time to do the post justice this morning, but please read Us or Them blog here on the case of British blogger Lionheart who is on the run from British police for speaking his mind on his blog. He said similar things to what I posted the other day about the Nadia Convenience store raid in our county, and has thus broken the law in his native England.
