Pornography Is Anything But A Victimless Crime

Our Founding Fathers did protect our rights to use drugs and other sinful items though.

They most certainly did not protect such behavior! Actions not specifically forbidden by the Constitution are not, as a corollary, protected. The Constitution doesn't prohibit Rape; are we to conclude that it is protected?? These matters are left to the states, which is where they should be decided. There is no Constitutional protection for pornography.

"It just seems like a bad idea to put a bunch of people with the same addiction around each other."

My step father went into AA long ago. Not only did it help him quit; he still goes there any time he's feeling weak, such as when he lost his father a few years ago. He's been sober now for something like 20 years. The thing with AA and NA is that the people who go have to want it to work, and they have to do what they're told they need to do. Sure they're hanging out with fellow addicts inside that meeting, but they're specifically told not to hang out with junkies who are still using, which usually means all their old friends.

LOL! That's a valid point. Porn ends up counteractive, eh?

The Japanese are using porn for something else though, its a different thing for them. Still -- as the birth rate shows, not a good thing in total.

Understand what pokeman, what godzilla, etc. are about and, imo, jmo, jmho, you'll have a read on what porn is about for the Japanese.

I think that in a lot of the Jap porn they are coming to subconscious grips with the same forces and dynamics of psyche that drove the rape of Nanking, the sex slaves, etc.

So when I see porn, I see the end product of sexual abuse.

That's true. Also, a lot of porn actresses commit suicide.

WEll I'd like to see all porn sites with a domain of xxx.whateverytheydo.com

Give those sites a prefix of xxx and make the isp's offer to block them from your service. It would put the internet filtering companies out of business but it would provide a solution to those families who don't want the scum in their home. The filters are not much better than having the parent sit in the room with the kids anyway because there are so many domains with the stuff on them it makes it hard for the filters to be 100% safe.

Don't give me your silly logical fallacies---you sound like a liberal.

Uh huh, you sound much like most the man-hating Commie Womyn's Studies Professors I've met.

Well, as a matter of fact I have a theory that the level of humiliating, degrading and hateful pornography is in direct relationship to the amount of financial independence and power that women gain.

And it is such a vile picture now--I shudder that my young sons will one day see the depiction of females on the web in such tortuous, mindnumbing and grotesque scenarios--and yes, I've seen it, I've made a point to.

The depth of this is a crime against all of us and we should be horrified and ashamed.

[TChris]

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

OK... Pornography can be controlled by the states. No protection there.

[Graybeard58]

My sister-in-law is a good-for-nothing junkie and all those groups do for her is give her a place to hang out with other junkies.

It just seems like a bad idea to put a bunch of people with the same addiction around each other.

Sorry to hear about your sister-in-law.

AA has helped me one day at a time for 23 years.

[Modernman]

Are the Japanese reproducing themselves at replacement rates? They're not, so I rest my case.

If anything, high taxes and the liberal welfare state are responsible for low birth rates.

More government control is almost never the answer.

You need to stop with the hyperbole OR stop downloading alt.sex.teen.

[dascallie]

You are an idiot that is intentionally blowing smoke.
Go back to your dear porn.

[Politicalities]

The production of pornographic imagery does not constitute a "private activity between consenting adults."

How do you figure? Does someone aim a gun at the models or their cameramen?

[Melas]

Go back to your seedy appetite--aren't you missing some porn time

Why is it your type has to resort to being snide, and attacking someone's character? Are you truly so devoid of real arguements?

[ContemptofCourt]

I admit that porn has ruined my generation of men. We expect our women to be big-busted, flat-tummied, firm-assed, clean-shaven, bisexual, stilleto and fishnet wearing nymphettes.

We're the victims here.

TOuche. I wonder if I can collect SSDI for this as well....

[Innisfree]

Promoting hedonism is the socialist line---get a life.

[AdamSelene235]

Yes, and I have some theories regarding the thermodynamics of dryer lint....But I'm kind enough not to inflict them on random strangers.

[najida]

Even worse, you expect them to need no foreplay, get all their sexual gratification from ways that feel good to you (but not to her) and basically be satisfied with just about any hair-brained thing a man does in bed ;).

Nothin' more maddening for a RL woman to find herself with a 'porn raised' male mind. They are miffed with you from the get go and you wanna slap them silly for being so gullible. ACK!

Better to date a Buddhist monk. :)

[TheBigB]

Najida can be as wild as they come, trust me. Ask her about the feathers. ;-)
