S.20.2-16: Free Minds Act (Failed)

[Deep Dixieland Senator, Muad'dib (OSR MSR)]

I'm pleased to see that the the chamber has been able to do things while I had a long weekend. Thankyou to the deputy for putting this on the floor.

Nobody is saying we should stock elementary schools with porn... All this bill does is ban governments from banning certain books. It doesn't require that elementary schools stock 50 Shades of Grey.

No it doesn't require that elementary schools stock Porn or 50 Shades of Grey. But it also provides no guidelines for keeping materials age appropriate either.


This bill has its merits, but it does have it's flaws too. In its current state I won't be backing it.
