| Message | What about the rights of our Citizens of the right to life? These people could be withholding information that could save thousands maybe millions of lives. Yet you are worried about the rights of a minority. What about the rights of children to a good education and opportunity in life, this will just bring down discipline levels in schools and will result in a nation of degenerate thugs who cant read or write. |

| Message | Well, I don't know about that, however this is a step toward nationalisation and generally this country likes leaving major decisions up to local governments, and even local schools of this nature. |
