Banning porn would never work, in the first place and in the second, as pointed out here, it would infringe on others rights and liberties. However, I read a proposal a LONG time ago that I thought was a good idea and still think is a good idea, if we could get all the countries in the world to agree to enforce it on any physical servers located in each country. The idea was that all porn be restricted to xxx.websites.com. This would make it much easier to restrict, which is why the porn industry didn't want to do it voluntarily. You see they want to hook them young -- they don't care about parents trying to protect their children, they want subscribers any way they can get them and the younger the better -- more $$$$ over their lifetime. That's my problem with the just let it go or anything goes attitude. They can have their porn in their own little corner of the web.

Again I am not saying ban it outright. However, there has to be some attention given to the fact that a vast many are experiencing dysfunction not only sexually but emotionally, intellectually, spiritually and are also stuck in social ineptness, unable to communicate effectively to create a partnership with others.

Yes parenting is needed, that is an understatement; but it has always been needed as with each decade we give over power to authority more and more and look to the powers that be to solve our societal problems, family and personal problems along with economic, etc. We all need to grow up, parent and discipline ourselves and grow a pair to stand up for what is right and cut the B.S. of apathy re: live and let live..........................unconditional love and acceptance does not mean acceptance of harmful and hurtful behavior and in the end that is exactly what porn is all about!!

I do not say Ban Porn totally...you can still have books, magazines and of course illicit porn movies, just take it off the internet as it is ruining childrens; eventual adult sexual health and well being in too many ways.

Is that what happens to adult porn watchers?? They do not get proper parental guidance when young!! hmmmm Well I say suck it up buttercup and BAN PORN on the internet all together!!

Typical ban everything that we don't like. Remember what prohibition led to

Anyone who wants to ban anything, needs to first defend... successfully, their right to do so.
That would immediately eliminate probably 80% of the continuous din of public bickering that keeps us from ever converging on problems that we actually do have the right, and the mutual-responsibility, to address.

We are constantly being dragged into endless, divisive debate over whether we should do something... when often the entire topic is moot, since it was never any of your neighbor's business in the first place.
It's useless to discuss whether you should do something that you can't do anyway.
What's worse, is the subsequent tendency to impose those micro-tyrannies, on the authority that "we collectively decided that it should be done..."; which is NOT legitimate authority.
If it's none of your neighbor's business, then by extension, it's none of the "collective's" business; nor that of the government, which is nothing more than the agent of the collective in the real world.

We didn't create a government to tell us what to do; that doesn't even make any sense.
The government exists to protect people's rights from your actions. Actions that do not violate someone else's rights, do not fall under the purview of government at all.

If some of these parents would parent better maybe that would reduce the number of participants for these "films", too. Lol

Nice rant. I am applauding as a perfect description of the porn issue. Just because it is immoral doesn't mean it should be illegal. Prostitution, drugs, porn and people scrogging food products in private are things in which I have no interest but should be legal. Disgusting? Yes, to me, but other people seek to live their lives in their ways. Keep up the fight. Freedom is too important to let it die.
