Youtube bans gun videos (UK)
    #8965487 -

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7621013.stm



Quote:
YouTube is to ban footage showing weapons being used to intimidate people on its website in the UK.

The new policy was being introduced because of "particular concern" in Britain over the subject, the site's owners, Google, said.

MPs criticised video-sharing websites, including YouTube, in July, saying they should be doing more to vet content.

Home Secretary Jacqui Smith welcomed the YouTube ban and called on other internet sites to follow suit.

YouTube said the introduction of the new rule on weapons and intimidation would be the first time the site had made a policy change targeted specifically at the UK.



We recognise that there has been particular concern over videos in the UK that involve showing weapons with the aim of intimidation
YouTube spokesman

Direct threatening of any groups or individuals has always been banned worldwide, but a spokesman for YouTube said it was necessary to reflect "local laws and sensitivities" in countries viewing the "diverse content posted by users" as the site's community evolved.

Yep. That would start a revolution, there would be millions of people fighting back, not just one person.

It's an impossible argument to make, but i would assume with the sheer number of gun owners in this country, and the attitude that *many* not all gun owners have that is "from my cold dead hands", that many would resist.

That is certainly my attitude when it comes to gun ownership... unless they have a court order, they are not taking my guns without a fight.  (When I lived in the US... I don't have any firearms where I now live.)

So you would obey a court order for your guns?

Are you aware of how corrupt the court system is, and how many times the constitution of the united states is broken on a daily basis?

A court order would be easy to get, and by obeying it you legitimize the system. 

Am i misunderstanding?  Are you saying that people who take your guns away will get shot, except if a judge signs it?

(not trying to be combative, just trying to understand, and change your mind after :wink: )

> So you would obey a court order for your guns?

Of course.  For the same reason, I would fight against anybody that tried to take them without a court order.

> Are you saying that people who take your guns away will get shot, except if a judge signs it?

It would depend upon the situation; they may not get shot, but they would have to shoot me in order to remove the weapon from my hand without a court order.

> Are you aware of how corrupt the court system is

Try living in a third world country where there is real corruption for a while.  You will quickly realize how good it is in the US.  There are certainly problems in the US, but nothing even close to the kind of BS that occurs here on a daily basis.

The internet was nice while it lasted but with Comcast, Yahoo, and Google beginning the crackdown, this shit isn't going to be free and user driven and created much longer.

sorry, but i find giving your guns away because of a court order to be rather unprincipled.

"They can take it from my cold dead hands, unless they are the government, then its ok"

Honestly, almost the people i own weapons to protect myself from ARE the government.  They have the largest probability of harming me on a daily basis than anyone else in the world.
