The mainly 'western' notion of political correctness is stifling some nations, to the extent, that everyone has become afraid of their own shadow.

But when it comes to weaponry, I do understand why some governments bring in blankets laws. They just need to look deeper into such laws so that they don't stifle such things as 'the arts & drama' - if that happens then 'people power' to force change needs to be seen and heard loudly

Postal and Border Customs here in Aussie is SO strict, I pack myself everytime I enter the country after travelling, I rack my brains to try to remember if I have some small item that may be on the 'no-no' list. Those cute little dogs run around sniffing everyone and everything, and I am sure I look guilty even when I'm not I pray the dogs don't sit down by me - I picture a scenario of being dragged away in chains. It is always such a huge relief to get through customs. I am sure I hold my breath until I exit customs.
