The Woman Who Stood Up to the Porn Industry—and Won. Licensed sex addiction therapist Laurie Schlegel wanted porn websites to do more to protect her state’s children. Now her law is the blueprint for the rest of the country.

This will clearly have the opposite of its intended effect.

By driving major sites like PornHub out of Louisiana, all that does is open up a vacuum that will be filled by sites not subject to United States law.

Which means more sex with minors. Which means more actual, non-simulated rape. Which means more footage of people having sex with literal slaves.

Nice job, Schlegel.

Always crapping on the little guy. Good job there.

I can't even follow that. Did you reply to the right post?

You're punching down. You never punch down.

I'm punching down at... Laurie Schlegel? She's a state legislator. I'm not a state legislator.

And I'm not even "punching." I'm criticizing shitty public policy.

You're taking the side of the wealthy and powerful against the little guy. But that's what I'd expect from one like you. That's why you're on this site.

So are you just talking about the other thread where I'm talking about how I've met ultra-rich people and they're way less interesting than you think they are?

Because nothing you're saying seems to have anything to do with porn being semi-banned in Louisiana.

Chippy has a one track mind. 1 percent, 1 percent, 1 percent.

He doesn't understand that the little guy allows it, and they have all the power. I don't blame evil for being evil in the face of cowardice, I blame the coward. In this case, your standard useful idiot.

You know, I've found that most bigots have never actually met the thing they hate.

The anti-semite never went to school with any Jews. The blue-haired ACAB chick has never had a conversation with a cop. The "nuke the sandniggers" guy has never actually sat down with a Muslim and learned what he does and doesn't believe.

And it's the same thing here. You want to know what the 1% are like? Fucking meet one, it's not like they live in cave lairs beneath Doom Mountain.

I don't disagree, but to be fair he's talking Bill Gates level one percent. I know a dude who on paper could be in the 1 percent. He makes $700,000 a year. Owns a massive construction company. He will actually be someone that shoots at the military if need be, and I mean actually do it, not talk shit. His money has done nothing to change his anti-govt, anti-elite ideals. So yeah, I hear ya.

Parental responsibility?

[–]Credit2Saidit 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

There is no such thing anymore. Always someone else's responsibility to feed, clothe, educate, and shield your child's eyes from what YOU think they shouldn't see.

Parents stepping up and doing that themselves? Where do you think we are...Mayberry?
