Freedom of the Press

Freedom of the Press 

The hallowed freedom of the press
In the west
Doesn’t sit well in the east
when Islam is made fun of.
So leave them alone to worship 
Allah their way,
Millions of backsides exposed 
to an ignorant world.
We can make fun of the Germans,
the frog and sex mad Swedes 
We laugh and giggle
until someone gets up and 
hit the offender for going too far.
when saying someone’s mother
is  a **** 
Great democracy the elite tells us,
but do not go too far
and never make fun of a Jew.
