Blame the lost war on city and county officials.

Unfortunately, you are correct. We also lost the wars on poverty and drugs.

Not a good track record.

The wife and I watched the Blu-ray of NIAGARA last night starring Marilyn Monroe. You’ll never see a star like Marilyn again, as there would be no incentive for men to go and see her on the big screen when they can see all the porn they want on the internet.

Its so simple-make all porn have a .xxx instead of a .com ending.

Parents can then simply ban .xxx from their service.

I’m old enough to remember back in the late-70’s/early-80’s when “feminists” greatly deplored pornography on the basis that it degraded and objectified women.

Then, the porn industry started funneling money to the DemoncRAT Party (think Larry Flynt), and there hasn’t been a peep from the feministas since.

The definition of porn is in the eye of the beholder.

I worked on a case with an attorney and a District Judge wanted the county judge out of office, so she got a friend Texas Ranger to say a picture of a young man on the judge’s computer was a “child” and charged him with having child pornography on his county computer. I knew that judge was not guilty of having child porn and we got that charge dropped and having porn on the computer was still charged. The county had NO rules about employees using county computers.

As a result, I wrote on a website that was dedicated to this case, that there was no definition of porn. Where does porn start? Some people would say if a woman’s ankles show, that is porn. Some might say showing her arms is porn. Some might say having on a low cut blouse is porn. With men it would be the same. If a man’s bare legs are shown, is that porn? If he has his shirt off, that might be porn to someone.

I went to that website where the young man’s photo was and there were men undressed but that website is legal. Any site showing naked children and you frequent that website, would put you in prison. Any owner of a child porn website will go to prison. Those are outlawed and the FBI is constantly trying to find those sites and shut them down with the owner going to prison. I went to other so called porn sites. If you go to the Playboy website, you can see naked women and that site is not against the law and neither are the others I went to.

Because I went to these websites, I had ads coming to my computer from those sites until I no longer had that computer. Those sites grab your computer and you never stop getting stuff from them.

So, your definition of porn may not be like another person’s definition.

It is a devistating legal drug. Warn your children and try to abstain yourself. It is not good for you.

Then again, somebody inside his house jacking off to Internet porn is not outside raping women.

Apart from folks’ souls being imperiled the scariest thing is that the first ever generation to have a constant, instant, and free access to porn will be the ones in charge fairly soon.

Serial Killer, Ted Bundy reported that he got started on porn.

COINCIDENCE: Since “Dr.” Alfred Kinsey and Hugh Heffner collaborated to start the Porn Pandemic, serial killings have vastly increased and children have to be constantly watched.

While the article expresses the priority of the spiritual side of this issue, I think the best legal weapon against porn and selling sex in general is to take away the profit motive.

Grant no intellectual property rights to anything that uses sex, sensuality, nudity, or erotic appeal. That would not change what people can make or view (or read, etc.) but would greatly reduce the production of porn and other sex selling media.

Hollywood might clean up its act a little if it hit their pocket book. It would pretty much destroy the porn industry.
