Porn should be banned, here’s why

Isn’t that “right” based on societal behavioral standards (aka morality) and to be enforced by government?

If someone sits in front of their computer watching porn in the privacy of their own home, it isn't harming anyone. Random acts of violence do inflict harm.

Porn does not cause serial killing because one guy said so. Lol

Yes, you've already proclaimed such ..... so it is written .... so it shall be. You are the deity here making absolute proclamations where you get to decide what "is" and "isn't". Have at it.

Wait....you are saying porn causes serial killing because bundy says it was a factor and we are just supposed to believe that.....right?

That is called projection

Yep, so having moral standards enforced by government agents is not really your complaint - it’s what, specifically, may get adopted (included?) as a moral standard.

No, I call it actually paying attention - it's how you learn things. I'm sorry you can only grasp the concept of it.

Oh, and no, it can't be projection because he is the one who actually - literally - said it - not something I wish he said .... or something I think someone like him would say .... or any other scenario that would make it a case of projection. His words from his mouth - not something that I put there. Sorry it doesn't fit your agenda - and his pathology was far deeper than just "serial murder" it was about Power - power over women. His victims were young, attractive women. Women, he claimed, are possessions. Beings which are subservient. Women are merchandise. Once again not my words but from interviews with him so not projection.

I see. So if he says toast causes serial killing well then it must be true. Why haven't all the other serial killers said porn causes serial killing?

And yet, he didn't say it was toast - did he? See, that's the part about "learning" that I was talking about. Listening. I see that you are capable of complete disregard for anything that doesn't fit your agenda - no sweat off my nose if you can't see beyond your own nose. You are the deity in your world. That is very easy to see based on the fact I listened to what you said.

It's quite flattering you refer to me as a god but it's not true. I'm just a man. A man that does not take the word of a serial killer.

I would limit that to involuntarily harming others without their consent. Selling recreational drugs may inflict harm, but that harm requires consent to purchase and ingest them. Placing “porn” in the private (enter at your own risk?) marketplace does not require anyone to purchase (or otherwise consume) it. Where things get tricky is what is acceptable (personal) behavior in public places and, of course, what is defined as a public (vs. private) place.

It doesn't fit your agenda to listen to what someone else says.

His personal (criminal) behavior was not caused by the actions of someone else, lest they should be tried as his accomplice.
 
We have one thread where fiscal conservatives are arguing that gobs of money need to be left in politics. And in another thread we have social conservatives arguing that men and women shouldn't be able look at sex.

So doesn't suit you either .... so let's just dismiss .... so much easier that way than to think there might be a problem.
 
vegas giants said:
Yes he certainly has an opinion. Other serial killers have claimed other reasons for their serial killing.

And it is counter to yours so it has to be wrong. Got it.

Very little "porn" is actually "sex".

It does not have to be wrong. But it is not right just because you say it is right. If every serial killer said that I would take it seriously.

They do not
