Yes indeed and i couldn't agree more especially where the councils are concerned

Unfortunately at the present time in Scotland my statement is indeed fact

The only Councils in Scotland that licence limousines & other novelty vehicles are Edinburgh City & Dundee, so if you hire a limo anywhere else in Scotland it could be a sex offender that drives you or your kids

I have the evidence to prove it, last year Strathclyde Police had to act in Paisley in order to stop a convicted sex offender driving a limo because the local council were not interested

There are no limousines licensed by the VOSA in Scotland

Perhaps if you had of made that statement a little clearer then i wouldn't of replied in the same manner, but anyway thanks for your rapid response and that now clarifies things to me.

kind regards

Don't you do that already?

And before you ask all of the above.

It's not paranoia if they really are after you?

Well I dont think I really look for thought crimes Skull but the way this Country is just now I think some others do, they seem to be constantly moralising about other peoples life choices, the new Puritanism is here well for the wee people anyway

Though crime must be reserved for those who have the capcity to think? And moralising must be some god given innate code?

Being secular I am not sure of the new Puritanism, though perhaps you could expand on this?

Morals & Ethics

One is internal or innate (God given) good or evil, a choice, free will. The other a code or promise. Divine witness over your future acts or behaviour (Hippocratic oath) God again but this time he is watching you and sort of in you.

Me I like a Godless morality, no big man in the sky handing down sh**


Thought crime, the ability to think without being controlled or programed by the state or society. If you think the wrong thoughts it's a crime against the state because you don't think what they want you to think? You question everything? And if you question the state you know what happens?

No, I do not agree that morals need be linked to religion at all, it's a sense of whats right and whats wrong really, this could be based on many things, look at the human rights act.

A moral person is not necessarily a moralist?

"Decency, security, and liberty alike demand that government officials shall be subjected to the same rules of conduct that are commands to the citizen. In a government of laws, existence of the government will be imperiled if it fails to observe the law scrupulously. Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy"

Louis Brandeis


Still holds true to this day if you ask me.

Wee problem, this statement bares no resemblance to our Government, especially Local Government.

It reads more like a fairy story


Power money and control are the real rules of conduct that are commands to the citizen.
