Not me. I'm conservative.

No, you aren't. You are asking for new laws to be enacted, as opposed to enforcing existing laws in a consisitent manner. You are asking the government to outlaw not only that which is explicitly harmful to minors, but also that which might be harmful in the hands of some. In other words, you are asking for laws against thought, not action. You know, like hate crimes. And we all know how "conservative" hate crimes are, don't we?

The difference between a conservative and a libertarian is that a conservative wants to stop crime BEFORE it happens and a libertarian wants to stop crime AFTER it happens. When I look at the current problems with pedophilia and child molestation, I don't see the biggest problem being false arrest.
