    Its not illegal for 16 year olds to be prostitutes' but its illegal to pay them until they are 18. Now we are going to decide if a 16 year old can vote because discrimination based on age is illegal? If you are 90 and having financial trouble a 30 year mortgage could help. Cant discriminate based on age. If you are 30 and want to retire then apply for the pension. Cant discriminate based on age. If you want to go back to high school as a 40 year old then do it. Cant discriminate based on age. If you have just been conceived and want to live. Shut up, you are not the right age.
    Without free speech how can we have that discussion.

    After Falou was banned for saying gays would go to hell a gay rugby prop came out and said that living as a gay person before he came out was HELL. He literally said he had suffered the HELL he was warned about. The difference looks like an argument as to what the word HELL means. Is hell a place you go to when you are dead or is it a place you go to here on earth while you are alive?

      The most authoritative person to speak of J Hell is Christ. He warned of it more than any other person in the bible. Knowing heaven he had a clearer vision of the comparative depravity of hell than anyone.
      However a hellish existence on earth can be expected if you live as a homosexual. This is a depraved existence that is an abomination , an ultimate insult to God. If your conscience is alive you will be in torment living such a life.

      @@bennichols1113 No, I am not so presumptuous. I am definitely not alone among the billions of people who " find homosexuality disgusting" , to quote the President of Uganda. This universally common reaction to filthy poofter behaviour comes as no surprise to people who are "made in the image of God" and who share a common conscience. It is therefore of no surprise that in multiple places in the bible it clearly states that homosexuality is "an abomination" to God. It could hardly be clearer. So, not me alone, but the common sense of decency and the bible itself both clearly point to this sexual perversion being an "abomination " and insulting to our Creator. What else is it? It is certainly not honouring to God. Quite the opposite. It is time to encourage men to repent and honour their Creator and live a decent life .

      It is both for those who choose it or for those who suffer unfortunate life events. Hell is a place without God. This can be experienced on earth and after death, but hell is far worse after death because while on earth there is good coexisting with evil, not just evil. Eternal regret, eternal existence without the goodness of God and grace. North Korea is a small taste of life and governance without God.

We need free speech to challenge homosexuals and other sexual deviants on the way they offensively invade our homes on media and abuse others through language and propaganda, not to mention false projection of a destructive morality.

    The problem with hate speech laws is the very notion of what is hate speech, simply put everyone has a different definition of what hate speech is and represents. A government dictating to the public what it means is implying a moral code of conduct they see fit to what they believe is a decent society. Only to find this is a rabbit hole and will drag out even more draconian laws in order to serve a natural progression of nuance from a variety of special interest groups. The solution here is to let the majority of the general public decide what is moral and decent for the society they live in, requiring months if not years of vigorous debate including all sections of the community. Allowing a consensus between all groups and individuals with the majority given the mandate to implement that rule, only on the grounds of the minority having a motion of understanding
