Yes, actual "rights" have been taken away. But those actual rights are usually always then fought for and won back at some point. Your "right" to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for example. But having your driver's license taken away is nowhere near the same thing as say, another country conquering yours and their military leaders take away your freedom to leave your place of residence. One is usually done because you no longer deserve to have a license, the other is done to opress and control you.

Again, some of you are confusing rights with privileges.

OK - valid comment CDS and would agree with the definition.

At the same time it's hard to describe driving as a "privilege" and no person is every going to stop me from driving as long as I have not committed related offenses or could cause harm to others (in that case I sure would not drive) - so, bugger em - I'm claiming it as a right :winkwink::thumbsup

Relevant comment :thumbsup

This can be applied to this industry when a small group of people push the boat out beyond a level which can also be offensive to others in the industry - nevermind the public.

It may have nothing to do with laws and often methods of skirting around laws - eg "portraying" a 13 year old kid who happens to be of legal age, 18 - therefore "we are legal". The public have no clue that the model is 18 - they are painted a different picture.

If and when that level of acceptance gets carried further and becomes the norm - we might as well be shooting kids for porn - after all, there must be a dollar in it. Sad thought - but there are people who would go to these levels given the chance. They lack judgement and often clouded by other ulterior motives, among them, that extra dollar.

hows about we all look after ourselves. If you think having sex with the immature is ok with you, then just don't be bringing it into my personal space is all. I have very good reason to be principalled in such a way. I am a crack shot with a rock at 50 metres.

Although they *may* not have a choice over being attracted to children - They DO HAVE the choice NOT TO ACT on these feelings!!!!
Once they have stepped across that line there is no going back, nor any chance of rehabilitation.
