Phil Moskowitz: Why don't they cut to the chase and write what people CAN do.

They can give their children, their lives, and their property, to Her Royal Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. They are entitled to one (1) toad-in-the hole pudding each year at Christmas. Children are entitled to be adorable little London urchins, and are entitled to work in Mr. Whippy McBeattington's textile factory. They are not entitled to have some more.

They are allowed to poach the King's game illegally in His forests, and they are also allowed to be drawn and quartered should they be found doing so. They are allowed to hate the French, and it is the God-given right of all England to never see a dentist.

That's what they can bloody well do, sir!

Clause 152 (new window)

(1) An appropriate Minister is entitled to make an information-sharing
order only if the sharing of information enabled by the order is for the purposes of--

(a) in the case of the Secretary of State, any matter with which a
department of the Secretary of State is concerned;

(b) in the case of the Treasury, any matter with which the Treasury
is concerned;

(c) in the case of any other Minister in charge of a government
department, any matter with which that department is
concerned.

So a government minister can legally tell anything about you to anyone. And you have no mechanism of appeal or way of stopping this.

Financial records, medical records, sexuality, past sexual partners, criminal record, relatives, political party membership, trade union membership, DNA profile, travel history, voting records.

That's a nice little clause to hide in an 'anti-child porn' Bill.

This is the basic difference between the US and the UK rights.

The US Constitution says "This is what you can do." (Bear arms etc,)

The UK is based on "You can do anything unless we specifically say you can't."

And Magna Carta laid down rights to trial, right to see evidence, and much much more, about six hundred years before the US even existed.

Commander Lysdexic - "The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people. As long as the government is perceived as working for the benefit of the children, the people will happily endure almost any curtailment of liberty and almost any deprivation."
- Mein Kampf


Here's a challenge for you: try and find that actual paragraph in an english translation of a copy of Mein Kampf.

Difficulty: Blogs or third parties repeating this quote are not acceptable sources, it instead must come from a link to the actual text of Mein Kampf and you aren't allowed to post again on Fark until you can find such a link.

Expectaction: You won't and we won't see you around for a very long time.

That paragraph/quote does not originate from Hitler. It actually was written by Rabbi Daniel Lapin in an essay wherein he poses as Hitler post-suicide writing a letter to an earlier fascist, and the essay was intended as a smear job to attack the American political left.

The first sentence does come from Mein Kampf, and Lapin included it in quotes in his essay however the remainder is the concoction of Lapin who crucially did not include it in quotes but does lead the reader to believe that is how the paragraph continued in Mein Kampf.

Just to make it clear, I'm opposed to this kind of bull but dishonest 'quotes' don't help us fight this crap and merely presents an attack vector for those advocating it to make those of us opposed appear to be incapable of reasoned analysis and discussion and instead capable merely of flinging insults.

Jacqui just had a lttle problem with turning in a cable bill for reimbursement and it had on demand porno movies that were rented. She is currently the Home Secretary.

Well, there goes every single coming of age story in comic form.
...
and tons of manga and anime already licensed and published in the UK.
...
Eh, fark it. We're already living in an age where teen girls who take semi-nude pictures of themselves and send a pic to their boyfriends are arrested and charged with production and distribution of kiddie porn. This is just one more blow to free expression.

To me, it confirms something I already knew: I'm never going to travel to England again in my lifetime. Bad food worse weather Big Brother Mary farking poppins. Who'd ever want to go to England.

Yep, the Magna Carta was a watershed in rights. Most of those positive rights are listed in the U.S. Constitution. The U.S. Constitution doesn't generally grant rights, though, it is designed to protect them. One reading of the Constitution essentially says (10th Amendment), "This is what the federal government can do. Anything else is the purview of the States, and the People."

Evidently, parliament intends to protect fictitious children as vigorously as possible.

I was under the impression that the Constitution and the Bill of Rights were more about restricting the way that the government can limit our rights, not about delineating what we actually can do.

I like pedophiles as much as the next man, but surely letting them perv over fake child images is better than the real thing ? Like the war on drugs, you can't stop it just reduce it as best you can. And as for the nanny state comment, the US has prosecuted for the Lisa Simpson being nobbed by Homer cartoon. Some poor guy is a 'sex offender' thanks to US and it's freedomz.

There's one huge difference: the US Constitution was written to apply to all; the Magna Carta delineated rights of royalty. If you are a commoner, it is irrelevant.
