| Message | By the same logic, you should also demand that the police not be able to collect any information at all. In fact, why not just disband the police and save the money and bother? |
| Date | 21:03:27, January 04, 2006 CET | From | RSDP - Democratic Front | To | Debating the Anti-Child Abuse Act 2166 |
| Message | Indeed, under the current bill the police would not even be able to intervene on the internet! They'd merely have access to it! |

| Message | " I'd like to get some bills passed before the next elections. And with the infinite discussions in the bills I have already proposed..." What bollocks, the election is not for another three years. Thats plenty of time, you only had to keep it in debate for six months or a year |

| Message | The RFP merely wishes for the police to be held to the same rules for the internet as it is held to for other means of communication, such as letters. |

| Message | Posting something on a messageboard or making a website is not a private act. Sending an email is, and would be subject to the same laws. |
