back to article BAN SMUT, rage MEPs: Purpose of internet must be EXTERMINATED

MEPs are being urged to back a non-binding resolution that calls on the European Parliament to, in effect, ban pornography from the internet. A group of Euro politicos hope the web filth block will bring about a "genuine culture of equality" online. A motion was tabled this week by the EU's committee on women’s rights and …

    Email Blocks...

    There's a far more worrying aspect not mentioned here - the European Parliament started automatically blocking emails from concerned constituents about this issue after MEPs complained that they were receiving lots... So they basically block democracy when it gets in their way and railroad things through while condeming other countries for being "non-democratic". Can't have it both ways guys...

    Politicians need to watch out

    If they ban porn then that will cause problems for the Brit politicians in Westminster, I believe a report came out recently under the freedom of information that indicated that there was a fair amount of porn watched by them when they where supposed to be working.

    What will they do with their time if they cannot watch porn, do some actual work, I think not, they would probably have an exemption for them so that they can monitor this horrible, demeaning smut on our behalf.

    I wasn't aware that the European Parliament had any to lose.

    Negotiations..

    Ok Grrls/Wimmin, I am prepared to negotiate. Here are my counter-demands:

    * Burn all copies of "50 shades".

    * Delete all copies of "Twilight". (it's not really porn, but it offends and degrades).

    * Close Ann Summers and arrest the owners as "purveyours of malfeasance and pornography".

    * Ban all male strippers.

    * Ban all adverts that depict men as stupid or sex-objects.

    * Stop talking about babies or asking for them. Which is the same physiological/psychological drive as that which drives men to "look at other women" (often in the guise of pr0n).
