The British government has banned Radio talk show host Michael Savage from traveling to the United Kingdom. The UK government placed Savage’s name on a list of prohibited individuals that is generally reserved for murderers, other serious criminals and terrorists. Today, Congressman John Culberson (R-TX) sent a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, urging her to press her counterparts in the UK to remove Mr. Savage’s name from list of banned individuals. Full test of the letter below:
One doesn’t have to agree with Mr. Savage’s political views or even admire his skills as a radio host to see that it is patently absurd that the UK authorities consider him a ‘threat’ to its citizens. His inclusion on the travel ban list suggests the British Government equates certain political views to be as dangerous as actual murderers or terrorists. Now, that’s a dangerous thought.
