A Spanish woman was convicted of cheering for the assassination in 1973 of Franco the dictator's designated successor. The court ruled this was "glorification of terrorism"! But the killing of tyrants is rebellion, not terrorism.

Franco committed massive terrorism. After the final success of his military coup, when the Spanish Republic had surrendered, he had tens of thousands of its supporters killed as prisoners.

ETA has committed terrorism on other occasions, but not that one.

The troll's plans would pressure young Americans to join the army.

There is a push to extend copyright power in the US.

This is dangerous, and totally false to the legitimate purpose of copyright (to benefit the public with more works).

Laura Lee, Northern Ireland sex worker and law school graduate, is suing to overturn the law that makes it a crime to hire her for sex.

It is ironic that one of the harmful effects of the law is that clients don't call her from their personal phones, so she cannot identify them. The danger of being arrested is hardly the only reason not to have a call to hire a sex worker in your phone records. If I were going to hire a sex worker, I wouldn't do it from my own phone. I wouldn't want her to know my name, not unless we had a deeper relationship than just sex.

The reason I have never hired a sex worker is that I look for an affectionate relationship, not solely sex. I recognize "You'd have to pay me to have sex with you" as a rejection, so I am not interested in her.

The troll plans to cut foreign aid, which will cause economic loss as well as suffering around the world.
