text: Scaramouche: Why I Do What I Do
  Robert Spencer articulates why some infidels (like me) feel the overwhelming need (compulsion, really) to draw--and speak--freely:
  Agreed, but they won't, because they're too afraid to, and because it's easier and safer to play dhimmi. Just look at what it took to intimidate "iconoclastic" Comedy Central into throwing free speech to the wind--one phone call from an irate kid with a kooky website. Not much "safeguard against tyrany" there.
