Oh, what a freedom-loving country we are.

First some poor sod gets put on the sex offenders’ register for having sex with a bicycle in the privacy of his own hotel room.

Then an unfortunate woman, Samina Malik, gets banged up for writing shite poetry. Alright, shite poetry about terrorism:

On a mirror were found the words “Lyrical Terrorist” and on one piece of paper she had written: “The desire within me increases every day to go for martyrdom, the need to go increases second by second.”

In her poems she wrote about killing heathens, adding: “Kafirs your time will come soon, and no one will save you from your doom.”

In all probability she’s as mad as a bag of wasps, and there’s every reason to keep an eye on her. But given that she hasn’t actually done anything, prison seems a bit extreme.

I’m hiding my copy of Paradise Lost.
