Photography is Not a Crime, It's a First Amendment Right

Yes, Chris, it does, but only in the relative dark ages of fifty years ago, before TV, internet, camera phones, digital photography. Back then you'd actually have to read newspapers which may or may not have reported on same. Your chauvinism is showing again - unless you hold equal contempt for English transgressions.... Do you? -- lsmft |

A _democracy_ does anything that the majority of the people want it to. To the extent that that is not the case, it is not a democracy. If the majority vote in favor of torturing and abducting minorities, "illegally" invading countries, killing civilians, and flouting international law, then that's what happens. See why democracy sucks as a form of government? |

Yes, Chris, it does, but only in the relative dark ages of fifty years ago, So the documented tourture by the US in Gitmo, Afganestan and Iraq was over 50 years ago? before TV, internet, camera phones, digital photography. Back then you'd actually have to read newspapers which may or may not have reported on same. I do not watch TV or read the newspapers.. I know people working in Iraq and Afghanistan both freelance and regular. Last night I sopped with friends in Sandhurst.... that's where I find things out. BTW one of them has been over to Bragg training your lot. I leave it to you to get your information from the press. Your chauvinism is showing again - unless you hold equal contempt for English transgressions.... Do you? Yes -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ |

The "liberal" in liberal democracy has nothing to do with specific policies or the political stripe of the government of the day. I've explained twice what it does mean. |
