Thou Shalt Not Offend
Michelle Malkin: Don’t look at this poster.
From the UK:
Schools in areas feared to have high rates of forced marriage are refusing to display posters on the issue because they are too hard-hitting, according to a government report.
…
A paper from the department released by the Commons Home Affairs Select Committee found that in Luton cards had been issued rather than posters while in Derby most schools were unaware of the poster produced by the forced marriage unit.
“In Birmingham, the poster had not been displayed as schools felt that the graphics are ‘too hard-hitting’.
“Some schools in Leeds are displaying the posters but others are concerned that they may offend some of their parents,” the paper said.
In a related story, prisons across the land have removed copies of The Ten Commandments from common areas, out of fear that the prohibitions against murder, theft, and perjury would offend the inmates.
