The questions for the ILX collective:How do you feel about this return to prosecuting pornography?What do you think the effect will be on you as a person and you as a citizen? (obv put yourself in a yank's shoes if you're not American, and/or relate your country's attitude toward pornography.)

Its all compeltely useless, since the internet is the main porn provider nowadays and people have access to far sicker foreign produced porno.

Do I need to explain my thoughts or is it obvious enough?

I'm opposed to chasing after porn, I'm opposed to these stupid made-up distinctions between legal and illegal smut - Seymour Butts was indicted over a lesbian fisting scene - but the Four Finger Club series is fine? But more than anything I'm opposed to blowing money on Extreme Associates that could be spent on fighting child porn or white slavery. They're pleasing one constituency, but they're not stopping crime.

Whew...I was getting idealistic for a second and forgot this is the US.
Isn't it interesting that Fox on one hand puts together a news channel with a big right wing slant and also puts a new show on the air with a central character being a porno king. I think they know what their audience wants.
"an atmosphere of hedonism detracts from the militarisation of the US empire and its world-domination project.how so?"
As Ashcroft would say if he came into ILX, it is hard to look and speak serious with some metal tit behind your head. Remember he dropped a few grand of US funds to get him a curtain so that statue of justice with her mammary hanging out wouldn't make him so nervous when trying drop some science.

As opposed to everyone else, who either does it for free or pays for the privilege.

In 2001, though, one interesting case emerged from St. Charles County, Mo., the heart of Ashcroft's conservative Missouri base. First Amendment lawyer Cambria defended a video store there against state charges that it was renting two obscene videotapes that depicted group sex, anal sex and sex with objects.
Cambria won, convincing a jury of 12 women, all between the ages of 40 and 60, that the tapes had educational value and helped reduce inhibitions. They reached the verdict in less than three hours.

God forbid you'd ever have to witness firsthand any of the media you're politicizing, even if you are in the right, eh? FUCK LIZZY BORDEN.

How can he bear to stand bare in front of the bathroom mirror? Perhaps he doesn't have one. Perhaps he sleeps fully clothed. No protection against noctural emissions, though.

so i am conflicted, i am a free speech crusader, i believe in the free dissemantion of information, but this makes my stomach crawl...maybe this is where casual nimby free speechers get off the caresoul and hard core fighters get on ?

lizzie borden had an axe gave her father forty whacks when she saw what she had done she gave her father forty one
as for momus, there is a difference b/w aesthically upsetting (and there would be v. few things left standing if it was just that...) and politically offensive.
i think that this guy hates women and seeks their destruction, but not before degrading them first, thats not something that i can get behind...but i hate censorship and i wouldnt advocate that @ all.
xpost
and it is free spech, people fucking is political, and artistic and important and as vital as speech as any other film/painting/sculpture.
(thot: how do i differ from helms, if i find mapplethorpe problematic b/c of his implied racism and helms finds cocks dirty)
