And this over reaction will only serve to make people more rebelious to the Governments thought police.

And I have sincere doubts that Germany ever had any free speech in the first place let alone free thought. The books still get burned, Just differant books.

Or one can look at it this way, Post war Germany had no real choice of who or how it was to be governed. Your choices were Communists and anybody else deemed to be anti German by the Hitler regiem and Its constitution was written under millitary occupation. Not a receipe for success in this Americans book. Germany was betrayed, First by the Nazi's and now by the opposite of Nazi's. You cant win.

Thank goodness for my consitutional freedoms!
