Yet even mainstream politicians, sometimes for the best of reasons, are in danger of making the same kinds of mistakes as the members of the 1814 Norwegian Constituent Assembly. British Prime Minister David Cameron, for example, is aiming to crack down on Islamist extremism by banning the expression of ideas that the government deems to be promoting or glorifying it.
但即便是主流政客，有时就算理由极其充分，也可能犯下像1814挪威制宪会议成员同样的错误。比方说英国首相戴维·卡梅伦以通过禁止政府认为要宣传或赞美伊斯兰极端主义的想法的表达来镇压伊斯兰极端主义。他当众宣布“拒绝我们价值观”的将遭到起诉，“无论他们是否使用了暴力手段”。
