Submission + - UK Goverment sedates a pregant woman and takes baby from womb (metro.co.uk)

metrix007 writes: The UK Goverment as part of it's onward march to becoming a full police state has reached a new low. British Social Services received a court order to sedate a woman and perform a ceasarian section to take custody of the unborn child. The woman was an Italian citizen who was in the UK for training. Her family stated the "breakdown" was due to her not taking her mediccation for her bi-polar condition. This is a new low...not only did they deprive a mother of childbirth and bonding with her child, they did it with little cause to someone who was not even a British citizen, but a visitor. Appaling.

People sharing something they like, promoting and advocating it which leads to new sales? Nothing groundbreaking here.

Piracy is a net benefit for society. Piracy leads to an increase in sales. Piracy is unstoppable and inevitable, as it should be.

Tired of people who don't get that, and are only narrowminded and can only be concerned of their potentially lost sales.

Here comes the flood of people complaining about having to listen to other people talking...

Even though it's really no different to people talking to the person next to them, or having to put up with watching or listening to whatever movie they put on, or other conversations, or bullshit safety messages, etc etc.

It adds convenience for people. If you don't like it, nothing changes. Use earbuds/headphones/eyemask as per normal.
