Internet pornography could conceivably become a thing of the past if Rick Santorum is elected president.
The unapologetic social conservative, currently in second place behind Mitt Romney for the GOP nomination, has promised to crack down on the distribution of pornography if elected.

I read the article. Don't we have more important things to do as a country? The one single industry that is thriving in this country and he wants to screw that up. Nice.
Sounds like naked Jell-O wrestling is impending. . .
For a guy who can't seem to handle the thought of anything being stuck into anything else, he seems to be in people's private business A LOT.

What crusade against birth control??
He doesnt use it, he doesnt like it, he is not the one TELLING you you have to pay for it. The only "crusade" is from the media, that you are knee jerking into.
As for the no porn thing, try reading the article "
Santorum says in a statement posted to his website, “The Obama Administration has turned a blind eye to those who wish to preserve our culture from the scourge of pornography and has refused to enforce obscenity laws.”
Think that means LAWS ON THE BOOKS. You don't like the law and are getting carpel tunnel because you found a left handed mouse, then lobby your legiicritter to remove the law. As a dad, it is a bundle of fun when the browser history has porn.com in it and the wife goes ape feces. Boys will be boys, but there is some wild stuff that takes healty curiosity to places where it doesn't need to go.
First admendment is for political speech, not S&M. It isnt a 1st ad issue. It is a freedom issue, however that means that your rights STOP where mine START.
You want to keep working the wrist, then all that crap should be subscription, not free.
The dirty BIG secret of any online business, and all of the internet is this: Porn is the reason the internet is the way it is. All these great things that we have online were developed for pornography. Streaming video, online collaboration, shopping carts, subscription services, high speed access, graphics distribution, mobile devices, etc... were all developed and or refined for enhanced porn delivery. And all of us that benefit from online services, have porn to thank in some way for our jobs and what we enjoy online.
If he kills the online porn industry, then he will cripple online development. This is the law of unintended consequences.

That was a good post. I agree with it and Alpha's post.
When you have kids, especially boys, you remember you made this statement, good luck.

The computer sits in the open where it is visible to everyone. The last thing I need is more government intrusion in my life.
What about all of the other computers, phones, and video game systems your kids have access to outside of your home, there is a problem right there.
Yep, content has changed quite a bit since the day of Playboy or Penthouse, get ready for those questions.
This is obscene...
Again, for those who didn't read just knee jerked, I don't care if your right arm is huge and you can run a mouse left handed, subscribe. Pay for it. Don't make it free and pretty dang rough. It isnt Playboy that is out there, heck you can get what was in playboy in a bikini catalog today. If it takes a credit card to open, then you can knock youself out. Heck, when we take down a switch I always wonder how many guys just sprained their wrists when the DSL cuts out.
Hey Jerm, you think you can stop it? When my kid was 5 we did a search for Spiderman. Clicked on a site, pics came up that had "huge tracts of land" as far as the eye could see. Tried to shut it down and it spawned popups. That was a lot of fun with the boy sitting there. He did say "Those were pretty big" so I just patted him on the head. The site was titled Spiderman.

You think we should let 8 year olds get firearms for free at the LGS? Thats the apples to apples analogy. Go online and click and get a AR15 without any adult input.
We don't do that because 8 year olds do NOT have the brain to handle the responsibility. Yet you are advocating that we let something into our homes that can cause at least as much trouble for them over ther lifetimes.

(edited)"Yet today's porn is nothing like Playboy. It's video, so the user can effortlessly imagine himself in a role. It's always novel, and there's no limit to how much can be viewed. Even after a user can keep going by clicking to something more shocking. The issue isn't or whether content is "good" or "bad." The issue is the effects of Internet porn's extreme stimulation on the brain. "

This is a different world than when you snuck dads playboy from his desk.
That'a a tube sock.......
Make the producers lock their site and require a CC to unlock. You can still do the lopsided workout if that floats your boat and even try the mouse back in the right hand if you want some strange. I am sure it would break their hearts to charge 20 bucks a year/ month/ whatever.
"You don't get to complain about the short and curlies in your soup when you’ve granted the waiting staff carte blanche to dip their privates in your minestrone"
Give the Govt the power to regulate content delivered on the internet, and it WILL come down on us gun nuts. Have you noticed that gun rights are taking off like wildfire since the internet has basically sidelined the old media? How long do you think it would take for the second Obama administration or the Hillary Administration to start defining things like alternative 'unapproved' media "offensive?"
Take personal responsibility for your kids, and don't give the Govt more power. It will be misused. Has the Govt EVER been granted a power it did not misuse?

What I am saying is this: Here is a hypothetical scenario: Let's say that by some "hapstance chance" ole Santorum gets elected and does shut down all internet porn sites. What's to stop him, or anyone else from shutting down sites like the Guns and ammo board, gunbroker, gun manufacture sites, hunting site, web pages of our gun clubs etc? I believe that if anyone elected political official, ever gets to that point, then we can definitely kiss our rights and US Constitution good-bye!!!!!!! Now there is the argument that this has nothing to do with Freedom of speech. I disagree. Not only do I believe it is freedom of speech, it's also freedom of expression. Eliminating graphic content from the www is not going to make anyone a more moral person. I donot think that very young children and adolescent's should be viewing this stuff. When one reaches the age of 18 to 21 they should be able to distinguish between moral and immoral. Its a personal decision. The very mention of this hairbrained scheme reminds me of the days when cigarette advertising was banned from TV and Radio. It was an ill-fated attempt to stop young people from smoking, and reduce health cost, but it didn't work, heck there's more people smoking now than ever before. Just because something is "out of sight" doesn't mean "its out of mind," so to speak. Just because something is not advertised, be it on TV or the web, doesn't mean that's it's not available to those who seek it. The bottom line is the attitudes and morality of the average person has changed with each new generation and will continue to do so,unless its changed. There are seven deadly sins according to some, and they are Anger, Lust, Envey, Glutton, Sloth(Apathy), Greed, Pride,and since these are running rampant in this country now a days wouldn't it make more sense to try to prevent and stop those, than trying to stop some website from showing naked men and women? Listed below is some data on how men and women think about sex. Form you own opinion:
So if Santorum thinks that he is going to eliminate young teen-age pregancys and ill-legiminate children, by shuting down the adult web sites, and eliminating Adult DVD's, then he is just a legend in his own mind.
Words for everyone to live by.

Show me IN ANY CONSTITUTION (state or fed) where you have a right to free access to porn.
Like I said before, you want a Popeye right arm and a left handed mouse, go for it. You figure out how to not step on MY rights to raise my family as I see fit. Sure, I can spend my money on internet filters, take my time to do it so you can do whatever you want, but that is the point. You are taking away from me to have a "good" time.
What is the difference between this and trespassing? If I dont want you on my property, you have no right to be there, IN ANY FORM. It is NOT my responsibility to post signs OR inform every 1d10t that is "lost". If they want to be in the woods, then they should know where they are. If you buy a 4 wheeler, then it is NOT my problem if you only have 2 acres and your brats are riding on other peoples property, it is YOUR responsibility to know where your 4 wheeler is going if you are on it or not.. If you are putting junk on the internet, then it is your responsibility to know where it is going.
