Stand with The Jawa Report

about websites being banned in India. Very good post here on the subject, both the reasons behind the action and why it's not a good idea.

Very short: India is scared of the Muslim population because they have such a tendance toward violence when they decide someone has not shown 'proper' respect for Islam. Problem is, 'proper' respect in the minds of many means 'on your knees, begging to convert and not be killed'. And no society that wants openness and debate and free speech can give in to that kind of crap.
