Freedom and Equality on the March!

I've been avoiding much in the way of politics here lately (despite the banner implying it's 1/4 of the site's raison d'etre). I do have other forums for that, but I feel I must observe the developments in Spain and Canada with this post (cross-posted on ObWi):

"We were not the first, but I am sure we will not be the last. After us will come many other countries, driven, ladies and gentlemen, by two unstoppable forces: freedom and equality," [Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero] told the chamber.

In the US there's a wall dividing good people. A wall built of fear, misunderstandings, and in far too many places basic intolerance. Freedom begins at home, Mr. President. Show some leadership. Tear Down that Wall!

I now return you to the regularly scheduled discussion on art....
