Terrorist won't be the death of America but Porn & Sexual Americans will

Yes, we must protect our Purity Of Esscense.

[Junior]

I figure I'm an adult and I can determine whether I will view porn or have sex. I don't need any dogooders and nanny-staters trying to regulate my life "for my own good." Get a freakin' life.

[TLBSHOW]

Keep spinning round and round!

[Paradox]

But I would submit that contrary to traditional conservative beliefs... this is a direct consequence of too much government influence and control in the lives of men... and not too little.

Being a small-l libertarian myself, I could probably come up with some sort of rationalization that would suggest this, but I haven't given it much thought.

Even IF government intervention could lessen the "sexualization of society", I am afraid that the cure would be far worse than the disease.

[Paradox]

Because then it allowed you to think you were doing something bad and naughty, huh? Kinky.

Heh, well it certainly was more of an achievement back then, more of a challenge. Nowadays, much of the fun has been taken out of it.. (well, ok, it still is plenty of fun, but ya know what I mean?)

[Gumlegs]

Do not procreate! Save the world, neuter yourself!

What kept you? VHEMT.

[TomServo]

Wiping out America, one stroke at a time......

Damn! Did I forget to lower my blinds, again?

[BikerNYC]

You are a hunter. The fun is in the hunt. I'm completely satisfied with the domesticated animals, the ones that will roll over for you when you pet their bellies.

[Junior]

The truth is that it's tooth decay that's destroying America.

But, God forbid you should attempt to fluoridate the water supply. Damned communists ...

[amused]

stop, you're killing me. Tween you and the general the office now thinks I'm a serial killer for laughing so much.

hmmm...it fits, I drink milk, have watched cartoons AND I breathe air. And now you have exposed me to porn...music. Watch out world! "Society" has created another animal!!!!

[socal_parrot]

I'd love to save America, but the babes just won't leave me alone.

[general_re]

Ripper: You know when fluoridation first began?

Mandrake: I-- no, no. I don't, Jack.

Ripper: Nineteen hundred and forty-six. Nineteen forty-six, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works.

After reading this thread, I see how easy it will be to separate the sheep from the goats. The goats don't get it because they don't want to get it.

Porn and Sexual Americans?

As for Pornography, I think there are zealots who would replace the word PORN with GUNS, DRUGS, SUVs and Tobacco.
They would be just as wrong as you are. It is not the vice that does damage, but the unwise person caught up in the vice.

As for Sexual Americans, I think you realize that without them, none of us would be here. There is nothing wrong with Sex, but there is a lot wrong with spending time focusing on Wrong-things, instead of on wrong-doers.

[Aquinasfan]

You're right. That's the downside of the pornography superhighway. And it's a very big downside. We have sown the seeds. We should be reaping the whirlwind shortly.

[AppyPappy]

C'mon. They never find child porn with molesters. And if they do, it's a mere coincidence.
