Bill: Anti-Political Correctness Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Spenocratic Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: February 2612
Description[?]:
It is believed by the Spenocratic Party that we cannot censor the media just becuase someone finds the speech offensive. I we were to ban anything that could be taken in an offensive manner, we would be left with a very silent population. We believe that everyone needs to be able to express their views through the media. If a member of the AM SuD party felt like writing an aritcle in a magazine saying how he hates all Spenocrats and wished they would die, we would, obivously, find this somewhat offensive. But that is no reason to limit the speech rights. Just because we find it a bit insuting does mean we need to have laws against it.

Message | We actually agree with the Spenocrats. Not about the wishing they were dead part, obviously... but the part about the only thing that NEEDS to be censored is material that is knowingly presented as true, even though it is known to be false. |
