During a recent interview, I was asked the following question: "You are calling for more freedoms, what are these freedoms?" I said, all kinds of freedoms; let's start with personal freedom.

I find it difficult to understand how someone can be so threatened by the ideas of others, but to feel threatened by the mere appearance of others is really beyond my comprehension. I mean, how can a pair of jeans, an expressive t-shirt, or a weird haircut be dangerous for a religion, society or culture? # »
