Cyborg,

My friend, there are those who view firearms with as much (more, actually) distaste as you view pornography, and who consider it criminal to have a gun in the same house as a child. I consider their argument of no greater merit than I do yours, for identical reasons.

I would not care if a kid of mine viewed pornography as a mature adult, any more than I would care if he or she became an avid gunner as a mature adult. Until that kid IS an adult, however, I would exercise editing control over what he or she could see and make use of.

The problem lies not in the inanimate object in question, but the unready state of the user.

Do I need to go on in greater analytical and descriptive detail, or do you now understand the point I am trying to elucidate?

We're friends so I think we should leave it at that. We have very divergent opinions about porn and probably won't ever agree.

No it was pretty well done in the example given.
Folks just don't WANT to see it. They make money from screaming about porn, just like the gun grabbers do from screaming about guns... or smoking nazis do about cigarettes... and on and on....

Expect to be accused of working for playboy or something...
you made sense after all.

Don't let logic cloud these mind numbed freaks.
