How intelligent are these 80%?how do you prove motves are totally unselfish? I dont believe that figure is true across the whole nation, its more like a poll from a tabloid paper? we elect intelligent people, specialists in their fields to argue these laws. The vast majority wouldnt even begin to understand the endless complexities involved in such a blanket law ? Or are they just following the hysterical headlines?
Ill fight for the right of the unheard of voiceless victims who could be killed off
