Sorry...I know that's kinda off topic...ignore me!
Might be kinda off topic, but still a good point. It's kinda like here in norway with booze. People can't buy and drink booze until they're 20, but when turning 18 we are legally adults, can vote, get driver's liscence, and generally are responsible for ourselves. --- but we can't buy drinks with more than 22% of alchohol or something. It's no problem for me to get really drunk and get violent or drink'n'drive by only drinking beer. The danger IS the same! Hehehe. If they are afraid of the possibility that we'll drink ourselves to death, why can we fire shotguns and hunting rifles, or even join the conscript military at the age of 19. I actually think we can use shotguns for hunt when we're 16. Not sure tho... But either way; where's the logic? Seriously, if I were the master of this planet, a LOT of things would be different. Hehehe.

And as for the party. Well, I do believe in the right for pedophiles, since it's a sexuality as all other. BUT: It's NOT their right to have sex with persons under the 'legal age for having sex'. What this party is doing is extreme. Lowering the legal age for sex will be very risky for kids .. I'm thinking about the danger of raping. -- Of course people can choose to have sex when they are under 16 (the legal age in norway), doing it all by their free will. But I actually think that kids at the age of 12 cannot make that decision. 14 would be more morally correct, but still that's kinda low.

Anyways, I didn't like this party ... except the fact that they wanted to legalize all forbidden drugs. All the other things were crap imo, really. Hehehe. I sure as hell wouldn't vote for them simply because of the legalization-issue tho.
