18 c lies and more lies.
Dec 10th, 2016 at 9:14pm
 
what a load of bullshit from these morons wanting to change 18 c .    can you imagine if you asked oliver and hardy barnardi or george branded when was the last time you had a black or muslum round your house for a bbq.   and when was the last time you were round thers.  and what did they think of this 18c poo.   if these questions where asked these morons would have heart palpatations.   this is all part of the plan from the monks disciples to make poor mall look like a glove puppet and also agree with the morons.  just about every week the disciples will come out and go to change policy so mall will again change his mind .  and each week the polls will slip down and down .  then the bed pissers will start to rattle worried about there high paid jobs and huge pensions..then there constituency will ask what is going on this yes minister mall is going against every thing he believes in.  then the numbers will start.   then who will we vote for .  remember i told you in my other blogs mall made mugs out of the other contenders.   sorryson  mutton barny rubble .      so the bedpissers will say who can we put in remember the cupboard is bare..enter da monk that bet looks good.   regarding 18c the right wing morons will poo when the words of the jewish  vote start to voice there anger these clowns will clam up quick smart.   and if you think this will never happen again but your not a back bencher the polls will push this  be lucky :D ;)

Have you ever tried asking a Muslim what they think of 18c?

Or what the suggested fix actually is ?

The problem is that it is a direct attack on freedom of speech. The solution is to get rid of it.

I don't agree that it is a freedom of speech issue at all.

Much speech is already impinged in other areas.

Protecting people from racial vilification is not a bad thing.

What about protecting people from perceived insult? Should we have the right not to be offended, and do you see that as an attack on freedom of speech?

How do all the other attacks on freedom of speech make this somehow not an attack on freedom of speech? Do we cease attacking freedom of speech when we attack it on several fronts?

And do those who oppose 18c actually realize that 18D protects their freedom of speech.

That is a common fallacy promoted by the supporters of 18c. An Australian man was put in jail for denying the holocaust because of 18c. He was not protected by 18d. 18d talks a lot about 'fair comment'. However, anyone who becomes a victim of this sort of attack on freedom of speech is obviously going to be part of a very unpopular minority whose opinions are considered unfair by the dominant majority. 18d only protects people who have nothing to fear from 18c to begin with.

That was Gandalf John, not me.

Not that this has anything to do with whether people have the right not to be offended. Do you have an opinion on 18c John?

Do you think the guy who got jailed for denying the holocaust had a problem with the laws?

Is it OK to destroy freedom of speech if no-one cares about the victims?

I'm not familiar with the case so can't comment on it specifically.

Do you have a link for that?

The only similar case I could find was Gerald Fredrick Töben who was jailed in 2009 for contempt of court

I am, and this has been debated to death in FD's Thread he 'stickied' all over the Forum.

The bloke was jailed for contempt of Court in that he defied a Court Order to cease publishing certain material (which was anti holocaust propaganda.)  He had first published that material.  He was not done under 18C for that, he was ordered by the Court to cease doing so.  He defied that order, continued publishing, and was jailed for contempt of Court.
