  • BUT FREE SPEECH - O.R.G., the EFF equivalent in the UK, which now lobbies for mass immigration, as if Open Rights Group is now Open Borders Group. O.R.G. has become an ORGY of fanatics, like Iran's regime. They don't believe in free speech. Rushdie got free speech up his neck, and he wasn't even safe in the UK! His safety/protection cost a lot.
