Education for every child

UK demonizing those who import sex dolls

mardi 27 juin 2017 à 02:00

The UK is demonizing anyone that imports a sex doll with a childlike body shape.

It would be ludicrous to claim that some child was harmed by making the doll, so they don't bother offering any justification for the prohibition. The mere idea that these dolls are "sickening" is supposed to justify making it a crime.

Acquittal of murderous thug

Philando Castille made every effort to comply with the thug's orders and assure safety. The thug's response — first incompetent, then violent, then dishonest — turned it into murder.

Video that was kept secret until after the trial shows this clearly.

The thug's acquittal shows the bias of our legal system on behalf of thugs. It bows down to them with more respect than we give ordinary citizens. That respect enables them to get away with murder.

How can we change that? One way is by setting a visible example of denying them the excessive respect they claim. That's why I call them "thugs". It is not just a way to vent emotions. It is a way to teach not to give them so much respect.
