The EU consists of independent sovereign nations, its not one country like the U.S is suppose to be. The other Scandinavian countrys are as I said exceptions when it comes to alcohol. Maybe you got me when it comes to the "publicly offends or insults", IŽll give you that! But what about the extreme censur on non caple U.S television? (we have no censur on danish tv at all). If thats not lack of freedom of speech then I dont know what. A lot of words like fuck, shit and bitch are illegal, just as nudity and even a "fuck finger" Hippocratic! Besides that a lot of books like "Little black sambo" have been banned from the U.S market because they are supposed to be offensive towards nigrows. Come again dude!
