I knew it was contravening the ECHR as I had to study that in my time at uni for other reasons of discrimination but wasn’t sure about the First Amendment. I’m not a lawyer or a legal-type but even a very basic reading of the exclusions seems to (at the very least) bring into question the plausibility of using it to get away with this sort of abuse.

Also, I agree, Bastion has been awesome – so far – I haven’t finished it yet but I don’t expect it to let me down.

The threats and intentional distress are broken several times a minute in some cases.

And that bundle is amazing – Bastion is worth it on its own!
