Ace of Spades HQ: "Borders and Waldenbooks stores will not stock the April-May issue of Free Inquiry magazine because it contains cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad that provoked deadly protests among Muslims in several countries.

At least they're honest. They're not claiming they're making the decision due to 'respect for different religious values,' but because there's a decent chance adherents of The Religion of Perpetually Peevishness will come and bomb or burn bookstores."
Ace of Spades spots this gem that harkens back to Germany in the 1930s. I find their surrender to thuggishness chilling.
