No. I am saying that a law should be obeyed unless there is a good

Ah Godwin. About time. I am not aware of any impending legislation that
would put kp downloaders in cattle trucks and ship them off to gas
chambers. Rest assured, should there be so, I would write to my MP.

that appear to be of children - without good reason. It doesn't seem
much to ask, in the scheme of things.
