The Legal Janitor

Update:

As always, Gilbert has a great post. He highlights that stifling of criticisms would create a chilling effect that can only be detrimental to Singapore’s long-term interests. And I agree whole-heartedly.

TODAYOnline has also released a fairer and more balanced report on this incident. Kudos to them.

Let’s have a little pop quiz before starting on this post proper, shall we?

Which of the following are true:

1. There Stupid Dumbass Party consists of opportunists, lunatics and morons

2. The Stupid Dumbass Party is run by clowns.

3. There are no economists in the Stupid Dumbass Party.

4. All of the above.

I’m going to reveal the answer at the end of the this post, just so that you can check if you’re correct or not. Unfortunately, I’m not giving out prizes so I guess the only reward you get for getting the right answer is a sense of self-satisfaction. Isn’t that great?!?

Update2: (Thanks to Guofeng for pointing this out to me.)

It gets worse. It seems there is a major infestation of lunatics trying to make use of Gilberts’ words for their own perverted ends.

Update:

redrown from Rebrab Moor says it exactly right:

By abusing others works without permission, you have committed the most grievous sin against expression itself, by infringing on others freedom of expression, so to actually claim to want to promote freedom of expression is a farce.

Let me just state at the outset that I am extremely annoyed. Pissed off. Fucking furious.

This man here is someone for whom I have alot of respect, and to take his words and use them for their own twisted agenda, it is truly despicable and unconscionable. Those stupid sick shits at SDP have earned my disgust and ire for as long as they exist.

This is a warning to the ‘Opposition’ opportunists who would try to use us non-partisan bloggers for their own political agendas. Piss off. Let sleeping giants lie. Mess around with us and you will regret it.
