Beyer’s porn petition flops
10 Downing Street has responded to “Massah” John Beyer’s petition to criminalise R18 pornography. Basically, the answer is “no”.
In his announcement of the petition, Beyer stated:
Almost 600 people have already signed, but it is vital that it attracts hundreds of thousands of signatures so that the Prime Minister is not left in any doubt about the strength of public feeling against offensive and harmful pornography.
The petition closed with 4,081 signatures.
So it would appear that there aren’t hundreds of thousands of people quite so keen as Beyer to tell adults what they can and cannot look at. And the government responded accordingly.
In the words of Edna Krabappel… “HAA!”
I wonder how many of those 4,081 were real people… Not that such a crushing defeat will stop beyer.
Yes! A victory for Freedom and for atheism.
I love the use of the words “Beyer”, “Porn” and “flops” in one headline. Genius.
For those of you have seen J Christie’s campaign to send every MP a copy of “The God Delusion”, why don’t we do something similiar with Beyer? Let’s all send him our dodgy old porn videos and second hand Mayfairs? He’d have enough “material” to keep him going for ever.
And don’t look at me like that. I know what you have under your bed.

A secret external hard drive full of saucy DivX movies?
I’ve just sent Mr. Beyer 89.com (do not look at if easily offended or in front of children.) That should either shit the fuck out of him or give a good wank.
I thought an external hard drive was a dildo.
I suppose if you could get a big enough USB powered one, you could stick a 2.5″ drive in it.
