“It is wrong and it is illegal.”

How so?

Speaking to the ‘current state of affairs’ in New Zealand, looking at it from the USA ... I would say the ‘wrong’ part is simply a matter of opinion, even if it’s the opinion of the government.

The ‘illegal’ part is a matter of their law, so that’s the state of affairs with their legal system.

Now, here in the USA, you can still argue the ‘wrong’ part, and I’ve already had people on Free Republic argue that with me, saying it is definitely wrong. I don’t agree.

But, you can’t say it’s illegal here, because of our First Amendment.

That’s what you get if you live in New Zealand. I don’t know why so many people were so enamored with New Zealand. I never saw them as a country to be admired.

This guy is an MP in the UK.

In the UK today, whatever they say is illegal is illegal, regardless of what the law says. Their speech codes are so subjective you can subjectively apply it and punish those that they want to shut up. It’s the complete reversal of free speech.

Apparently, the English Bill of Rights only protects the speech of MP’s in Parliament, not the average “subjects”.
