You didn't respond to any of these questions...therefore, I'm quite sure I can conclude that you would be in support of such laws being passed. That's not making assumptions.
Questioning laws and questioning government at all times is extremely important, otherwise we put ourselves in a position where things are suppressed and, as I previously stated, we end up living under a totalitarian state. Perhaps you're in support of that...I don't know, but I'd expect the majority aren't. This is why having the right to protest, free speech etc are so important, I'd expect however that you think these should be abolished, as we should live by the law and never question it or the government?
You only have to look at Hitler to see why everything I mentioned in the last paragraph is so important.
Considering I'm doing an A Level where we've just recently looked into what goes into the process of passing laws, I'm fairly sure I'm clued up on what goes on. Of course the remark I made about 'letting any old fool pass a law' was entirely hypothetical, and you know...not real, or encompassing of actual reality. Hypothetical...but never mind.

Goodwin's Law just kicked in.
You are reaching a conclusion on what a person thinks when you know know nothing about that person. That's interesting.
Whilst I admire your 'passion' with all respect to you Jack ....An A Level? There's a very true saying about little knowledge being a very dangerous thing.
