It has just come to my attention that I said "Oregon", when in fact the girl is British, this is because I was reading another news article about an Oregon teen who tried to blow up a holiday celebration while writing this article, I apologize.

Nope, they don't. They don't have a written constitution so their laws can pretty much be bendable to whatever they want. They have far stricter hate speech laws than we do, which is bad.
Britain is a lost cause, I wouldn't be surprised if next they have muslims running around cutting people's heads off next just for calling 'prophet' mohammad and allah names. Or some cartoons. After all killing people for disagreeing is in the koran.
And so many here use the Europeans as an example of what WE should be moving toward.
