The latter are not pushed into households. If the gun manufacturers delivered guns to someone, they are obligated to find out if the recipient is old enough to acquire the weapon. It’s the same with car dealers. They don’t drive out to a house and deliver a car to a 9 year-old.
Hoisted on your own petard.
“The latter are not pushed into households.”
And neither are TV’s nor network programming.
Adults in a household have the responsibility to not keep the front door wide open and keep it locked as to prevent intruders, the adults also have the responsibility to keep the car keys away from a child that my abscond with a car and adults have the responsibility to utilize good judgement in keeping their children from watching inappropriate programming.
Programming is not forced onto you TV and into your home, but rather programming is invited into your home.
TV’s have an off switch, TV’s have a channel tuning button, TV’s have channel blocks and no one is this country is forced to have a TV or watch a certain channel.
