New Zealand Bans Manifesto

[Amarok]

I have owned two well thumbed copies of the Anarchist Cook Book. Did not blow anybody up.

You not having blown anyone up says nothing about all the people who have

Not a matter of letting the wackos speak or not speak, it is a matter of not letting someone print instructions on how to build pipe bombs.

Again, there is a huge difference between allowing offensive speech, and the completely separate issue of stopping incitement to violence. 

Again, the Nazis are not lacking in representation in the Holocaust Museum. But Mein Kampf was an instruction manual for genocide. 

You can still find the Unibomber's manifesto if you want to read it, but it isn't printed en mass as an advertisement for a Caribbean Cruise.

NZ was not trying to silence dissent in this, they were trying to stop more violence. Just like you don't mass copy instructions on how to make poison.

You can watch any of a number of true crime shows and find out what can be used as poison, which are hardest to detect, and if it's a one dose thing or an accumulation over time thing.

Who decides what is to be censored?  What are the guidelines for making that decision?  

Your 'facts' tend to be how you think things should be, not how they are.

1.Accept true crimes shows aren't advocating murder.

2. I think spreading lies and misinformation and intentionally giving people instruction on how to commit terror in the name of an ideology of violence is a pretty good starting point .

3. Doesn't generally start out with the way we believe things should be .
