FSC Congratulates UK Protestors

Free Speech Coalition applauds the efforts of Charlotte Rose, Jerry Barnett, Sex and Censorship and the coalition of free speech advocates that protested on the steps of the Parliament today. The protestors fought to protect the personal liberties and free speech of British citizens in light recent amendments to existing legislation that places a stranglehold on adult content created in the UK and viewed by British citizens.

“Rose’s face-sitting protest was not only the first of its kind, but also courageous and brilliant,” commented Diane Duke, FSC CEO. “She got her message across and managed to bring unwanted and embarrassing media attention to the prudish British Parliament. BRAVO!”

Rose’s protest was organized on Facebook after the legislation changed to outlaw the distribution of movies featuring sex acts including spanking and whipping and face-sitting, if filmed in the UK.

“I suspect that this is just the beginning of the backlash,” said Duke. “These free speech advocates not only have our full support, but also our undying gratitude for free speech is a global issue and impacts us all.”
