Yes folks, I’m back. I know, I only just claimed I needed a sabbatical, but after some elaborate legal consultations (always handy to have a lawyer in the family) I realized I should stop running from the ghosts trying to silence me. I’m a Belgian citizen expressing my free speech rights (articles 19 and 25, Belgian constitution), without breaking any laws that might limit that universal EU privilege (art. 10).

Exposing the abuses carried out by government personnel by posting legally obtained images, showing gross misbehavior by members of the [censorship] is no press offense, nor does it entail any punishable crime such as libel. Posting pictures of said abuse while satirically commenting on those pictures is no criminal offense.
OK, now we got that cleared up, I’ve got an urgent message for the Belgian .gov and [censorship] ‘readers’ who have been stalking me: I won’t post your disgraceful pictures. I won’t. Being a small time blogger with only 500 visitors a day, well, it’s just not worth the effort. I have however acted like a real Belgian patriot: when my home country is under attack by the disgraceful behavior of those who have sworn to defend it, it’s time to call superman my friendly newspaper editor. Your shameful pictures are currently being processed by an expert legal team. It may be prudent and wise to check the national headlines any day soon.
So, I’m going back to blogging about what really matters: my cat. And if that cat is found dead one day, I’ll get you, you sick b*stards.

Well, you did write “undefined” and “unorthodox” sabbatical.
Cats are always good blogger fodder.
Be careful of posting pictures.

It’s amazing what a late night transatlantic conversation can accomplish…

A good decision, Peter! Or to say it with an old classic: “Stick it to the Man!”
Regarding the attached image: healthy boys, our military… getting a look at some boobs for oh… 0 seconds!
I have a similar post about Boobs for Belgium and will be going through my logs with a fine toothcomb tonight!
