Going Dutch...

Nowadays it is not too uncommon to hear of some pretty, what we like to prefer to as, fucked up shit. England winning the 2003 RWC set a bench mark off some sort and since then the 'fuckedupshitometer' has incrementally increased to a point where if say you read in a gossip magazine that a once famous, albeit short, actor publicly committed himself to a bizarre extraterrestrial religion and swore that he would devour the placenta of his firth born child and name it after a curry powder you would glance through the article and skip straight to the red carpet shots of Petra Nemcova.

Any weird antics up until now pale in significance when you here this story from the Guardian newspaper.

"The Netherlands cemented its reputation as Europe's most socially liberal country yesterday when a new political party formed by paedophiles was told it could contest this year's general election.

The Brotherly Love, Freedom and Diversity party (PNVD), which wants to cut the age of consent from 16 to 12 and to legalize child pornography.

The new party wants to legalize the possession of child pornography and to allow pornography to be shown on daytime television. Sex with animals would also be allowed by the party, although abuse of animals would remain illegal."

Crumbs this is ridiculous. I can find myself accepting the idea of allowing pornography on daytime TV, and would probably turn a blind eye if someone prefers sheep to women (it would certainly increase the number of Aussie tourists come trinations time) but to actively lobby to drop the age of consent to 12 is some other kind of fucked up.

But wait there is more: "The new party, which was formed in May, pledged to intensify its campaign to remove the taboo on pedophilia which, it claims, has worsened in the past decade after the arrest of the notorious Belgian pedophile Marc Dutroux."

Well thanks very much Marc you prick. You got caught now everyone sees us pedophiles in a bad light. Come on sport. You are not towing the line here. Oh wait weren't you sentenced for the kidnapping and imprisonment of two young girls that you starved to death! Shame on you, giving us nice men with sweeties a bad name.

I reckon George W could pass world legislation (he can do that you know!) that everyone must convert to Islam and pilgrimage to Mecca and the PNVD would still win the more Fucked Up award!
