robertpaulsen whines:
As a citizen, I sure would like to have a say-so in my state, or my city, or my community whether or not to allow porn, bookstores, etc.

You already do through zoning laws. All communities, towns, etc... have the right to prohibit the establishment of adult bookstores, strip clubs, etc... within their jurisdiction.
However, your communities should not have the power to not allow me to access porn on the internet if I lived in that town, or prevent me from having playboy delivered through the mail, or to watch porno movies on my DVD player.

Well put.
Notice the 'no comment' from the Communitarian crowd.
That rhetorical tactic lies in their quiver next to the ever-popular Circular Argument, Question-Begging, Argument From Absurdity, Emotional Apeals, and Ignoring Facts.
It backs up the 0.0mm shells they carry of Lies and Spin, coupled with Biased Statistics.
