| Message | I cannot see why people should be allowed to have sex in public and why violent porn should be allowed on national TV |
| Date | 20:10:20, October 02, 2005 CET | From |  Theofascist Party | To | Debating the Porn and Affection Bill |
| Message | Disagree with art. 1, agree with art. 2 on the condition that such stuff has to be broadcast only at hours at which no or at least very few children watch TV. |

| Message | This goes a little too far. There are some things that could postively ruin my afternoon tea, and one of them is my wife hitting me with her umbrella just because I happen to casually glance in the direction of a well-endowed young female who choses to prance by naked. Furthermore, violent pornography is not something that I would want the nation's impressionable minds (and not just young ones) to see. Except, maybe, at unsuspicious art film festivals. |

| Message | People should have the right of choice, no matter what their neighbor says... |
| Date | 12:38:41, October 03, 2005 CET | From | Democratic Socialist Workers Party | To | Debating the Porn and Affection Bill |
| Message | Government controls on this aren't necessary. Society has a habit of sorting things like this out on its own. Even if it were legal to have sex in public, would you do so? Probably not. I wouldn't want anyone watching me, anyway. |
| Date | 17:07:30, October 03, 2005 CET | From | Theofascist Party | To | Debating the Porn and Affection Bill |
| Message | The right of choice also means you don't have to be confronted with couples having sex on every street corner. |
