Bill: Bill NLA-76 The Second Act to Preserve the Freedoms of Expression and of the Press from Tyranny
Details
Submitted by[?]: Progressive Democratic Alliance
Status[?]: defeated
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: January 2220
Description[?]:
| We have no right to dictate and regulate what the individual can and can't watch or broadcast on the free, public forum by choice of all parties involved. It is important that we allow open expression and discourse (unless, of course, individuals are harmed or forced in any way) and if you have problems with some of this expression, you will have free expression to protest against it. This is necessary for any truly free, modern democracy. |

| Message | Hey, children will end seeing it somehow eventually anyway. It's better if it doesn't come as a shock to them later on in life. Also, it's the parent's responsibility, not the state's responsibility, to raise their children. (Oh and if protecting our sweet, juicy freedom requires raising a generation of degenerates, then so be it.) :P |
