“View” Lefties Can’t See Why Child Porn for Teens on MTV Might Be a Problem

The smug certainty with which leftists insist that they're better people than conservatives has always been an interesting phenomenon. We’re asked to believe that our opponents are more moral, more responsible, more enlightened, and more sensitive than we are one minute…and one of our betters turns around and asks what the big deal is about some outrageous case of moral degeneracy the next.

Such is the case of the latest pontifications from The View co-host Joy Behar. In a discussion of Skins, the new MTV show which might have broken child pornography laws by filming actors as young as 15 performing explicit simulated sexual acts, Behar suggested that the only reason people are getting worked up is because of the channel it’s on:

“I think it’s because it’s MTV, because on HBO as you pointed out, I believe ‘Oz’ was on there and they’re all doing some crazy stuff … and ‘Sex in the City’ was on HBO,” Behar said. “What’s the difference if you’re watching all these grown-ups talking about all of these — anal sex, etc., or young people? What’s the difference?”

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure laws against producing child pornography don’t say, “nobody can do this except for HBO.”

MTV is in Santa Monica, why hasn’t the totally corrupt and worthless human being of a District Attorney Steve Cooley shut them down, seized all assets and arrested the whole bunch for Willfully and Knowingly Producing CHILD PORN for Distribution.??? The answer is he probably got an advanced copy to masturbate to. For I can think of NO OTHER PLAUSIBLE REASON.

When I was a kid in the late ‘60’s I was window shopping in a big bookstore. Remember this was the hippie era. I picked up this big, beautifully bound coffee table book. It was full of full-page photos of the hippie author’s two children; a boy and a girl. They were in sexually explicit poses with numerous photos of the pre-pubescent boy’s erect penis and the little girl’s vagina.

I was astonished that this book was in the main art-book section. Actually, I was astonished it had been printed, as every page was an indictment of the authors as pedophiles. It was a book by pedophiles for pedophiles. Yet, here it was in the mainstream book section sandwiched between Time Life and Better Homes and Gardens. If I saw this book today I’d march up to the manager and we’d have a talk. Then, I’d call county attorney’s office.

I suspect that a huge cross-section of liberals would see nothing wrong with this book. I suspect, that if I took this to the county attorney today that, although the book might be pulled from that store, nothing would happen to those involved with publication. After-all, who are we to judge others? By what moral high-horse can we gallop over their rights? (Oh, that God and Bible thing. Well, that’s fast disappearing, isn’t it?)
