How can America bounce back from low birthrates? Ban pornography, said Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance.
What’s happening: According to HuffPost, Vance — a Republican Senate candidate and author of the best-selling memoir “Hillbilly Elegy” — said in a “newly unearthed” interview with a Catholic magazine in August 2021 that he wants to ban pornography.
“I think the combination of porn, abortion have basically created a lonely, isolated generation that isn’t getting married, they’re not having families, and they’re actually not even totally sure how to interact with each other,” Vance told Crisis Magazine at a conference for young conservatives.
Vance’s campaign “didn’t provide a comment about his more recent thoughts on porn, and how they would factor into his priorities as a senator,” HuffPost writes.

Live and let live, right?
To be fair this was an old interview they have dug up so would be wise to wait to hear his response before drawing any conclusions...
That isnt going to save families because that isnt the problem.
Porn is taking care of it by itself by starting to charge for premium videos and leaving dreck still free.
We need to get men respected again in order to get them off porn.
I just think congress gets into too much stuff that they shouldn’t. Really just concentrate on economy and our debt please. Perhaps once achieved, go on to other things.
This is the way.
Yep
For me there are First Amendment implications.
I dont really think Vance believes in banning it. Surely...
Just by his comments he does not have a clue why families are on the decline.
A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle attitude has led to this.
Tim Ryan looks like a MAGA candidate in his commercials which are numerous.
Vance is stupid if he believes this nonsense will help his campaign. Try again, JD.
No-fault divorce and normalizing broken marriages has had an outsized effect, too.
Scalia said porn was never protected speech until the Warren Court decided to protect it.
You can’t tell by his comments. He’s allowing the opposition to brand his policies. If he doesn’t get out in front of this, he’s toast. “Progressives “ in Ohio know how to lie their way into office. Sherwood Brown will tell you Biden’s policies are good for you, you just don’t know it yet.
Vance is nuts. Everything that’s banned is still available. I can’t think of any contraband that has actually been eliminated.
Van is exactly right. By the way about all mass murderers are homosexuals addicted to pornography. Look it up. It’s fact.
Interesting.
I wonder how the current court would rule.
Either way I dont think it’s a good idea....
The fact that popular culture and feminism have made women toxic pains in the ass have gone a long way in isolating males.

The Vance trashing here is repulsive. Freepers grow up. Vance is great candidate endorsed by trump.
Psalm 36:
1 An evil man is rebellious to the core.
He does not fear God,
2 for he is too proud
to recognize and give up his sin.
3 The words he speaks are sinful and deceitful;
he does not care about doing what is wise and right.
4 While he lies in bed he plans ways to sin.
He is committed to a sinful lifestyle;
he does not reject what is evil.
