That is a historical fact of the prohibitionist movement in the USA. It was fueled by the anti-constitutional idea that the all powerful State can dictate individual behaviors, without using due process of law.
I answer that, in fact, prohibition would help restore family values and thus help repel the waves of socialaism that are sweeping over western society.
We see all about us the folly of that prohibitionist/socialist view. Booze prohibition was beyond any doubt the cause of massive lawlessness in America. The 'war on drugs' has compounded the scofflaw mentality.
Yes, alcohol prohibition was, but we are not talking about alcohol.
We are talking about socialistic prohibitions of ANY type. They do not solve behavior problems, they make them worse by breeding contempt for our system of law.
You want MORE prohibitions to 'save the children?'
Unbelievably naive position.
We are talking about what is essentially an addictive drug that can be purchased free on the net by anyone, even children.
Bull. Children can be monitored by their parents to prevent them from visiting such sites. You want the government to do your job.
Surely you believe that children should be protected from it. Please, tell me what YOU think, rather than what the founding fathers may, or may not, believe if they were alive now.
Weird plea, because I am telling you what I think. -- I believe that insisting that our Constitution be obeyed by our lawmakers is our best protection from socialistic schemes to prohibit our liberties, -- those that lead to lawlessness.
