The Pornography Plague

However, we are in a situation right now where this false form of conservatism must be countered, vigourously, because it has the effect of driving away voters that might support REAL conservatism, because it plays into the hands of those who denounce us all as "religious nuts" who ALL want to impose a theocracy on America.

Women, children and animals have a right not to be debased and hurt by some pervert who reads a how to article. The rights issue goes both ways

And thats why child porn and beastiality are illegal. And the women who perform in porn are doing so willingly.

[swampfox98]

Everyone wants things, it's what they're willing to do to get them that gets to be problematic.

If I saw my little dog had been hurt by a perverted reader of pornography, or my little nephews hurt, or my daughter hurt by a porno worshiping person, I think I'd be willing to do something to fight that perversion whether it became a problem for me or not.

When the fruits of perversion hits close to home, the tolerance factor ends with most people.

And thats why child porn and beastiality are illegal.

Illegal immigration is illegal, however we have l3 to 25 million illegal immigrants living without fear in our country. Laws don't mean jack crap.

[Phantom Lord]

In my heart I want women, children and animals to be protected from being hurt by pornography reading perverts. Those who defend pornography obviously don't care.

How can you honestly contend with a straight face that well over 50 million people who partake in the use of porn don't care about women, children, and animals?

I care a great deal about them. Especially the ones in my family and close friends. Somehow I am able to care about them and look at porn. How is that possible?

[Phantom Lord]

And let us not forget that the Senate has had actors who played farmers in movies come and testify about the plight of the family farm.

These people were not farmers, and likely have never been on a working farm in their lives. Yet they brought in to testify because the played a farmer in a movie!

[Pukin Dog]

How dare you try to interject common sense on this thread?

Well of course it was in black & white Robert....

10. That is highly debatable (as over 600 posts of heated disagreement makes quite evident

Saddam Hussein had lots of friends too, that didn't make him right, did it? Is that what it all comes down to? Numbers? You want to talk about numbers? How about hearing from some of the millions of victims of pornography all over the world? These victims have faces and voices, they have memories and fears that keep them awake at night. The have low self esteem and some don't care to go on living after being abused. They have rights. The right not to be victims of porn.

Let's be honest: Porn exists because of money - the porn reader's money to be exact.

Then you might want to remove it. Some of your libertarian friends might think you're a homo.

Fair enough. Zero tolerance invariably comes with unintended consequences, and you are free to ignore them if that is how you see fit to engage the issue. I wouldn't expect a lot of support if you're going to demand that everyone else ignore them and join you on your terms, or be attacked.

[swampfox98]

How is that possible?

Your life is not over yet. Arrogance and believing that man is the measure of all things can and do lead one to bad conclusions sometimes.

[swampfox98]

or be attacked.

Giving an opinion is attacking? Gosh, you sound like a Democrat out after Bush.

[Junior]

I'm glad you find it funny.

[King Prout]

your non-sequiturs never end, do they?

first off, let's start with a little fact: no one is a victim of porn.

people are victims of animals, of disasters, of accidents, and - in this application - of people.

wait, what am I doing? I am actually debating you as if I assume you will think about what is stated.
My error, that.
It shall not happen again.

[tacticalogic]

Gosh, you sound like a Democrat out after Bush.

I take it that's just your personal opinion, and not to be construed as being of any factual basis.

[swampfox98]

It shall not happen again.

Good. The only reason you're upset is becaue I have put a human face on porn. It's not so much fun then, is it?

[swampfox98]

The fact is that when the Democrats beat the crap out of George Bush and he has the gall to reply, they accuse him of being an attack dog. And that is not my personal opinion I've seen it happen a dozen times.

[King Prout]

you enjoy porn that makes use of non-humans or headless/faceless humans? and you call US perverts?
