#1 Which rights? Which constitution, for that matter?

These guys can be kinda confusing at times.

#2 Now this is funny shit. I can't imagine why India wouldn't just be as pleased as punch to have some self-appointed unaccountable group (which has declared itself as the definitive expert on human rights and drags around an agenda a mile long and has proven they are about as impartial as your dear old Mum) send a high-ranking rep. Sheesh! One might get the wrong impression and think she might be looking to advance the AI agenda. No. 'Course not. Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along.

#6 Amnesty International is an organisation that started out by agitating for personal liberty and the right to hold any opinions you wish. It has since been captured and corrupted by leftists and islamicists. It trades on and in the process destroys the previously good name of AI.

#7 PD sez: "(which has declared itself as the definitive expert on human rights and drags around an agenda a mile long and has proven they are about as impartial as your dear old Mum)"

And they care about human rights about as much as Sirius Black's mum did.

#8 Ri'Neref - Wow - you must be angling for the Dennis Miller Arcane Minutia El Supremo Deluxe Award! I had to go to Google (I'm not much of a Potter guy) and read for 30 minutes to "get it" - so I get it, now. Whew!
