General Assembly Resolution #30 “Freedom of Expression” (Category: Furtherment of Democracy; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void. The World Assembly, Resolving that it is profoundly immoral to permit corporations and legal persons to lie to consumers, Believing that society as a whole can have justifiable reasons to restrict expression for public safety and to prevent the consumption or publication of materials that would damage public health, social order, or needless antagonisation, Seeing that society should have the ability to regulate adverts and their means of distribution, eg prohibiting tobacco advertisements from being shown on childrens' television channels or placing limits on where or what can be depicted in such advertising, and Confident that there will be a scrambling of legislative efforts to replace this resolution with more appropriate legislation that permits society to protect itself, hereby: Repeals GA c 30 "Freedom of Expression". |

I'm not really going for persuasion. My objections to the resolution are entirely based on procedural and personal misgivings that even other GA regulars don't necessarily have concerns about. The resolution itself isn't necessarily bad, the means by which it was introduced are. |
