I am not a sheep, I have my own mind
I have had enough of being told what and how to think
Whilst we are still allowed the remnants of free speech, I will speak out.
I also reserve the right to discuss less controversial matters should I feel the urge.
Believe it or not this was a video promoting tourism in Denmark.
The video shows a young blonde woman, trying to find a man whom she had a one night stand with, who fathered her child "August". VisitDenmark's manager, Dorte Kiilerich said the film was supposed to be a "nice and sweet story of a woman" and that she regretted any offence the video may have caused, but the intent had been to tell "a nice and sweet story about a grown-up woman who lives in a free society and accepts the consequences of her actions".
In the advert, the woman says - in English - that she was "trying to find August's father".
"We met one night a year and a half ago when you were on vacation here in Denmark.
"We met... and then decided to have a drink and, yeah, it's really embarrassing but it's more or less what I remember.
"I don't remember where you're from or even your name."
Critics says the video implied that along with traditional tourism, Denmark was a place to go to have unprotected sex with strangers.
The original YouTube clip has been removed after receiving more than 800,000 hits, however copies like the one above are still spreading across YouTube.
