To those who didn't support any of the above (and i'm with you) and believe in freedom for other people as opposed to just themselves, it appears that yet again we're having our freedoms taken away from us by the state - so do remember it come election time when you're asked to put a cross next to Labour, the Conservatives or the Liberal Democrats.
so what happened
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOO

Sorry but I disagree that the minimum wage is a bad thing - most of what you point is a bad but the minimum wage prevents companies abusing people by being able to pay them far less than they are worth. Sadly stuff like this still happens abroad such as China in factories but at least here in the UK it works.Quote:

There are always work arounds to.
I'm not going to write an essay because honestly, how you manage to compare those to porn is beyond me. The internet cannot be reliably censored in anyway, because of the way it works. Porn isn't harmful to people's health or lifestyles, if you don't want to see it you can get away from it and it doesn't endanger anyone's safetyQuote:

Stop being such a pedantic fool.
I'm not quite sure but the following was said in the Telegraph:Quote:

Parents should be the first to take responsibility for stopping their children looking at internet pornography, the new Culture Secretary has said.
Maria Miller said calls demanding internet companies block access to hardcore online porn as a default setting would be considered by the Government.
But she emphasised that ''first and foremost'' parents must ensure their children and using the internet safely.
''I think responsibility is very strongly with parents to make sure that they really understand how their children are using the internet...to make sure they are safe,'' the MP said.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, Mrs Miller said there could be a role for the government in giving advice to parents on devices such as parental blocks on their home computers and similar software.
Waits for him to link to his many youtube videos that say the smoke doesn't actually harm anyone but agreed.Quote:

I've never come across anybody 'blowing' smoke in the faces of other people, maybe because it's usually just a figment of the imagination by those (such as yourself) who have an irrational anti-smoke agenda to fight. And you've just proven my point again, you think you know what is best for other people just as the government and others think they know what is best for you concerning online porn.Quote:

No it doesn't [passive smoking], do some research and don't believe everything you hear in the mainstream media... you fool.Quote:

Quite frankly, if you thought you could all have the state tell everybody else what to do by imposing your standards on others but leave you yourselves alone.... then you were all incredibly naive.
What has him not ever having a debate with you got to do with what he said? I think everyone knows you on the forum as the mass debater who shoots **** out of his penis
