As I understand ECHR (European Convention on Human Rights) is a binding document, does that mean a law can be declared "un-ECHR-al" (like unconstitutional in US) by a court and rendered enforceable?

If so, are there any European counterpart of ACLU trying to nullify Article 11/13 in this way? (violation of free speech rights)

Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights:

Article 10 – Freedom of expression

1. Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers. This article shall not prevent States from requiring the licensing of broadcasting, television or cinema enterprises.

2. The exercise of these freedoms, since it carries with it duties and responsibilities, may be subject to such formalities, conditions, restrictions or penalties as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society, in the interests of national security, territorial integrity or public safety, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, for the protection of the reputation or rights of others, for preventing the disclosure of information received in confidence, or for maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary.

β€œThat is a much more important right than that of two men or women having a family. That is the principle that should underline our laws regarding children and adoption.... The child should go to parents, a mother and father, to replace what the child had before." ~ Leo Varadkar 2010 (Read on)

So before you down vote read - I’m trying to make a point here since the sub has taken to the point of pulling every quote out for any standing TD they can as far back as they can find them.

I’m not Leo’s biggest fan or FGs, they did some great work in their first government cycle and well kinda fucked up enough to lose this election in their second term. That being said this is a direct quote from him 5 years before the marriage equality referendum was a thing. A thing FG helped pass even after a comment like that above, I’m proud of them for doing that and changing their stance/minds and same with the 8th and the likes of SF and many independents. Fair fucks to them all we need more of that in our politicians.

People change and if we see people change in politics for the better then we should be supporting that not demonising it. We want them to grow, develop and open their fecking minds because they are the ones shaping our country.

If they continue to do dumb shit then please be my guest and tear them apart but stop with the shit from years ago if they have stopped singing from that idiotic hymn sheet of old.

We are doing well, but we need to do better. 538 just shifted their projection of Bernie winning enough delegates to a brokered convention being most likely. And I do NOT trust the DNC to do the right thing. They'll do the 'Pete+Amy beats Bernie' bullshit. You already see it in the media.

Bernie's rise has mostly been on Biden and Warren lowering. Bloomberg, Pete, and Klobuchar are still rising.

And to be honest, it should be viewed as a missed opportunity that we didn't shatter voter turnout records in Iowa and NH. We barely edged out total voter numbers in NH compared to 2008, but with population increases the actual voter % turnout was lower.

Barack was a strong candidate, but I feel that we have several strong candidates, and much more hated opponent and hatred for the status quo. I am Biased, but I think Bernie should elicit a higher turnout than any one that came before him.

There is no reason why turn out records shouldn't be shattering, and if they're not being shattered, we should be analyzing why this is so, so that we can shatter these records in the next primaries.

(KY) Do I have any sort of legal right to have the name on my newborn child?

I was married at the age of 22. I had a baby at 23. We have a custody agreement for 7 years that has been modified to the point of a no-fault divorce. We now live together in a house together and it was always my name on the birth certificate. However, we didn't get married for about 2 hours, so we have no proof of this. We do have a birth certificate, but it has an incorrect name.

At the request of her lawyer, I had the name changed. I am the child's father and she is the mother. My question is, does she have any legal right to change my name?
