Censorship in Australia

[Kaotac]

I just sent a feedback submission to the Kevin07 site and thought I would come here to try to get something going. So here's what I sent:
"
Considering the comments on censorship coming out of the debate in regards to The Worm, I was wondering if Labor has any plans to remove the legalised censorship in the form of the ban on the sale of pornographic movies or video games.
At the moment, any computer game that doesn't fall into the 'MA15+' rating is banned from being sold to anyone, no matter thier age.
If Labor is serious about being against censorship, they should do their best to get rid of all of it in Australia and allow Australians to make the decision for themselves if they want to view a movie or play a game of a certain rating.

If you agree with getting rid of the censorship in Australia, let Labor know about it, and maybe something will finally be done about it.. A country like this shouldn't have censorship in 2007!

1. Grand example of selfish thinking

Whatever happened to the big picture?

Our first priority is to remove Howard and the possibility of Costello. If elected, Rudd could almost be guaranteed 2 terms. Plenty enough time to deal with your need for pron-on-demand.

A far bigger worry is a shift to the sort of polarization (just read GD)that is happening in the USA, where religious groups and do-gooders, via campaign contributions, have the ability to influence policy.

Personally, I am against censorship in any way or form, but have the acuity to realize that it has been turned into a divisive, electoral issue that to speak out against, will only raise hackles. Get the job done first by dumping Howard, then turn to the details.
