The United States congress tried this in 2004 and 2006 they tried to do it in secret both times and I caught them doing it needless to say they didnt
get away with it yet. This is the ultimate problem when you deal with both censorship and freedom of speach.
ATS exists because we no matter where we are in the world all of us come here for our own reasons and in many cases own agenda's. The question is
where do you draw and line and even if you do how do you enforce it?
Brute force leads to more brute force exc exc exc. Regulation's lead to excessive laws and unnessarry force excerted on populations around the
world.
Sooner or later The united states government along with other government's are going to push there citizens too far and there will be a backlash to
what extent and what level that occurs I dont know I can only speculate.
Anthony Scelea of the United States Supreme Court had a interview on pbs not that long ago on this very issue of enforcement and regulation of freedom
of speach when it came to the cia leak case. I have had people derail my investigations too so I know how frustrating it can be trying to do
something and have someone or some special interest group come in and screw everything up.
Its a outstanding and great thing to explore to question where do we draw that invisible line of what can be done and what will not be done and who
sets the line and why and what do we call morals exc exc.
One could argue that the Austrailian Government has the right to police it's people and govern its people how it sees fit the only problem with that
is you cannot make everyone happy we dont live in a perfact world and we never will.
Clearly there is a standard that says in most but not all cultures including government's that says homosexuality is detramental to society and is
not something that should be premoted or tollerated. These kinds of questions people in every leadership and governing position ponder everyday and
still to this day we dont have a exact working formula.
Where do you draw the line I would say the clear standard would be or should be do unto others as they do unto you. If a nation starts a war against
you or your way of life there is a reason to engage in a war aganist that country.
The same for regulation and so called right's the only rights I consider anyone to have in the united states are ones people are willing to stand up
and enforce. If someone does not use the rights they have or have been given they lose them. If they are not aware of the rights they have most
people would say ignoreance is no excuse for the law.
That is a whole bigger arguement and discussion for another day.
Thats my 2 cents for today.
