Australia granted a visa to Louis Farrakhan, but warned that he risks being kicked out if he offends any segment of Australian society during his planned visit. A spokesman for the Nation of Islam leader was quoted as saying that Farrakhan and his entourage would decide whether they still want to visit, adding, “We want to make sure the [visa] document doesn’t infringe on our rights as human beings or attempt to muzzle us like a dog.”
