Yep... that's it. They don't understand that a sicko that wants to really torture and kill someone will get their ideas whether they can see it on the internet or not.

How about all those cop shows on TV? They have some pretty horrid crime scenes and plots where anyone can get ideas. Ban those too?

The only reason that these laws are being proposed and enacted is getting votes. If they knew they couldn't get the extra votes to win an election, they wouldn't bother. Meanwhile, some of their own elected members engage in the very things they want banned.

One of our Prime Ministers, Pierre Trudeau, once said that the government has no business in the bedrooms of the people.

Folks, this is what happens when you use your votes to encourage your government to control anything. They never stop, no government agency ever shrinks and no amount of control over your life is enough.

And, may I point out, this is while you still are (at least nominally) a republic? Imagine how much fun it will be in 20 years (at most) when Sharia is the law of the land.

If you let them abolish your weapons rights, and you let them abolish your speech rights, and you let them abolish your religious rights, how does it surprise you that they want to abolish your sexual rights?

Good luck.

This is really starting to get to me! After the "Max Moseley" stories in the British tabloids, they are running similar "stories" which are at best a poorly veiled attempt to stir up misunderstanding of fetishists.

Have a look at:
http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/1304_benefits.shtml
To see what I mean.
This part stood out to me in particular:
"Confronted by the News of the World, Frost ADMITTED being paid for her secret sideline and insisted: "The bondage and sado-masochism scene is misunderstood. There's nothing wrong with it. We're a friendly bunch of people."

But when our investigator said being dominated in a dungeon didn't strike him as particularly friendly he was subjected to a full lashing from her tongue.

"That's EXACTLY the kind of prejudice we're up against!" she spat. "
Unfortunately the masses will swallow this hook line and sinker - it will not occur to them that any anger she displayed was the result of being hassled by a gutter "journalist", not as a result of any character traits.
This coming from a comic that has teenage boobs in it on a daily basis.

It is remarkably easy to write this kind of gibberish about just about anything- let's have a rough re-write of the article, but using pies:

"A TOP-RANKING town hall benefits boss awarded herself a spanking great pay rise—coining a fortune as a kinky BAKER on the side.

By day civil servant Catherine Frost earns £27,000 a year to sport a boring suit and monitor handouts to the sick and jobless for Poole Council in Dorset.

But when she gets home the busty 37-year-old becomes Pie Minx, donning an apron and elbow length oven gloves to dole out £1-50 a time pies to perverted punters.

Paying customers submit to a range of sordid acts as the Minx leads them into her kitchen, bakes them pies, and makes them fat."

After reading the article I found myself thinking "how is this news?" I read it as "an office worker has a kinky side" - hardly newsworthy is it?
It is purely intended to shift copy, the fact that is it damaging to a minority group like ourselves is ignored....

The UK government has just made it illegal to sell, import, and manufacture samurai swords - as a result of the fact that they have been used in a few murders. What a relief! Now I can only be stabbed with something else, shot, poisoned, run over, electrocuted.....
Much like the laws we are facing this will obviously do NOTHING to make the world a safer place - like LoRee says it is purely an attempt to convince the masses that politicians are worth voting for.
Cynical rant over!

^^ In Germany the government is planning to outlaw fake weapons that resemble real weapons, because the fake weapons are increasingly used in robberies etc.
Now, for me it is a good thing that the robbers were only armed with fake weapons instead of real ones, but obviously the German politicians think that weapons that are used in crimes should at least be able to actually shoot people. Stupid.

The only reason they enact such laws prohibiting this or that is that it looks good politically, and shuts up a strident fringe group that is making enough noise to make the politicians look bad if they don't do anything.

The rule is, no matter how dumb your point is, if you whine long and loud enough, you'll get what you want.

oh, no woman please. Call me old fashioned, but women and politics never seem to go along well. Trust me, we have a female head of state right now in Germany and I could hit her every time I see her face on TV.

In the US, we got one trying to run for president.... She scares the living s*** out of me!...
And the other main choice is a black man, and he is not much better....
I think I'll go with the third choice...
I don't think we are ready for a black man or a woman in the White house just yet, someday, but not either of those two!

(With my spelling, a spell checker is mandatory... but it does come up with a few interesting choices, IE: White House = whorehouse)
Think about it, where do most Americans get F***ed???

Dark Lizerd, it doesn't matter what you call it, you still get screwed no matter who lands there. Same up here in the Great White North, eh?

Grinser, I have not seen any female politician yet that doesn't look outright like a hypocrite. Men have a much better talent at hiding their emotions, and thus their hypocrisy. Women are more expressive, and show their feelings more easily. We have a female contender up here for the provincial prime minister, and I don't like her one bit. She looks like a real hypocrite, and she's always talking down to everyone. I can't stand Hilary Clinton either. So the moral of the story is, if a woman wishes to run for office, she has to be honest. And honest people of any gender don't last long in politics.

However, if one wants a kinky woman running for political office, we should move to Italy, where even porn actresses run for parliament (remember La Ciccolina?). :P :P :P

A dominatrix would be a good idea. She could whip the system into shape - literally. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Her slogan could be "Vote for me or I'll paddle the tar out of you!"

This would only affect the websites IF THE SERVERS are in the UK!
If they are affected they could just go somewhere else.
If you have a site that is affected I would glady pay for canadian or some hosting in india to get around this.

P.S., If you are being filtered from bdsm sites I can set up my computer as a proxy so you can get on them again.
