Violent porn (to be?) illegal in UK
Another one about sexuality and the law. Apparently there are efforts to pass a law that makes it illegal to have violent porn (i.e. a good hunk of this site) in the UK. The penalty is three years in jail, just because some people don’t have the ability to distinguish reality from fantasy.
The frustrating part is, I belive most people here have the ability to tell the difference, just as I believe that most people won’t actually try to do anything written on this site, even if it turns them on. But, there are a percentage of people who don’t, the same percentage that Colombine got and the same percentage as the “going postal” people got. But, why do we have to limit the rights of the many because of the few that can’t control themselves?
The second link is an article (through a few links) that basically claims that the more accessiable porn there is, the lower the rape in the region. Of course, I’d rather see a more extensive report, with a lot more points and spread out over more time, but its an interesting concept, and one I might agree with.
