Do you support the war on pornography?
Do you think pornography should be reduced and eliminated from the internet or is it protected by free speech? Should the US government have any involvemnt at all in the restriction of this industry? Is porn degrading to certain groups, does it objectify and contribute to rapes or sexual assults?

Give me a break! I love porn. Don't take it away.
Porn is like gaming or alcohol: bad only if you abuse it. Would you ban wine, beer and casinos? I don't think so.
Also, don't forget porn is one of the BIGGEST and most profitable businesses in America. You kill porn and you kill a vital portion of our nation's riches.

Christianity seems to fall into that same category. And a few other religions along with it. Of the group, porn seems to me to be the least objectionable... |

YES!!!!!!!!!!! My MIL shows a video in her Sociology class, and the most shocking thing to me was that at the time the video was made (probably the 90's) every single serial killer in prison had two things in common: they abused animals as children and they were into pornography. Now, cleary pornography doesn't cause killing, but it does desensitize people to the value of humanity (especially women... why isn't NOW going after this?).
Not only this, but it's a major contributing factor to the rise of pedophilia. Then again, I'm also opposed to legalizing marijuana for the same reason. Not everyone that uses it goes on to using more addictive and destructive drugs, but it leads the way to it.
