Apparently the Rev Fred Nile wants to ban topless bathing/beaches.
As ridiculous as this sounds, he will no doubt attract some supporters.

It started me wondering what other people would like to ban if it were up to them?

I'd start with politicians' superannuation schemes and chop it back to the same super schemes that are available to the rest of us.

Cages and everything else that's messed up New Year celebrations on the Waterfront and, more to the point, the nanny state mentality that's caused it.

Anyone in Hobart will know what I'm on about - that people were leaving so fast as soon as the fireworks were over as to cause traffic jams and the place was all but empty an hour later says it all really.

Must protect us from ourselves though.
 
Uptight, hypocritical, moralistic preaching wowsers.

Oh. Sorry. That would include KRudd.

Better ban ME.
 
Smoking. It's one of the most pointless activities in existence in my opinion. It's a terrible annoyance to non-smokers, it causes a reduction in productivity at places of work (constant smoke breaks), it's disgustingly unhealthy, and it's a burden on the health system.
 
I want to ban the stranglehold the corporate media has on public opinion in our banana republic.
 
I remember talking to a Swiss guy years ago and asked him why he immigrated to Australia.

He said he was sick of the lack of freedom as every thing was banned or regulated back home.

Seems we are catching up
 
While we're at raising standards I support the Reverend or anyone else who will enact a law that says no-one may bath in last seasons swim suit.
 

I agree with this, even though i smoke occasionally and am forever quitting. If Smokes were banned i would have no choice.

Off course then there would be no tax income.

Cheers,

I would like to ban all godbotherers from attending their temples, mosques, synagogues or churches, on Friday, Saturday or Sunday.

I would like to ban the way the media controls our life! They are no longer just reporting the news, but think that they ARE the news.

Oh yeah, and smoking too! Especially in doorways where you have to pass through the fugue to get into the building. And taking time out to have a smoke is unfair on workers who dont!
 
"Never in the history of Perth have we faced such a stern crisis. Debate about dress codes, the indecent flaunting by our adolescent population in a time where skirts and obscenity seem on the rise."*

Bans. I'd like to ban bans.

Yes I'm serious. We've got more than enough government control over our lives as it is. So let's stop banning things and let people make up their own mind.
 
The use of fines or similar as penalties. Gives too much incentive for governments to create and police rules purely for financial reasons.

Oh yeah, and smoking...

In relation to Rev Nile's issue, ban the ban on photography at topless/nude beaches. If people want to flaunt it, then others should be able to photograph it!

speeding fines for 0-15km over the limit, and double demerit points on public holidays.
