Ed Morrissey:
Now, consider this in light of current British policies on free speech and religious expression. Simply tweeting anything critical about Islam or transgenders can get one prosecuted in the UK. Praying outside of an abortion clinic, even while not on the property, gets people arrested too -- even if the prayers are silent. And yet, chanting pro-Hamas slogans and publicly demanding death to Israel's armed forces gets no reaction at all.
Well, not in Britain, anyway, even though the state-owned BBC broadcast it live. Here in the US, it gets plenty of attention, especially at the State Department. They have spent the last few months trying to cancel visas issued to pro-Hamas propagandists already in the US and to expel them. Rubio's in no mood to let more of them in, even those who have 20-city tours already set up across the country.
