Are you saying that circumcision is illegal in England?
No. It's perfectly legal, but the person being circumcised has no say in the matter. A bit like abortion.
Correct, and the perpetrators of both should be subject to criminal prosecution.

I understand the tyranny of your country and the brainwashing of its citizens all too well! BBC America, which I imagine is controlled by the BBC, even censors that great movie "The Shining."

You haven't got a clue, bob, you've been brought up in the "American Way", you poor bastard.

And you're perfect in other ways, too, but I don't want it to go to your head, so I won't mention them.

Why's that, Reverend Bob? Do you think I have no need, or are you testing the market for some you wish to sell?

This again!! Once again you imagine wrongly boob, BBC America is controlled by Americans, hence you censor stuff.

I remember as a child in the UK seeing these vans driver around with dishes on the roof that would spin round n round and the grown ups would say - look out the detectors are in the neighbourhood as if these vans could detect TVs and could identify who had a TV without a license!
I thought to myself what a load of bollocks - these vans can't detect TVs - TVs are a receiver, not a broadcaster...later in life i read somewhere that indeed it was all bullshit.

Not quite, they could detect an old TV's in use as they picked up the oscillator's signal but it was useless in pin-pointing if there were a few TVs in the vicinity so effectively useless as detectors.

No, I meant your utter audacity implies no need for larger ones.
