  I wonder what all the “pro-porn”, “pro-free speech”, gamergate republican pundits on the internet have to say about this…

    Strangely the right to life crowd really loves killing people. However I do think it is unfair to label them as anti-muslim, because the also love killing children, women, the poor… Basically anyone who is not rich and male.

    Pretty sure “Nanny state” is a popular category of porn

  But there’s no such legislation or required identification for my kids to see graphic violence and gore. We’re a pretty bass ackwards society.

    Are there graphic gore and violence websites that kids are frequenting by the millions daily?

      Yes. Youtube. Cable TV. Every streaming service.

      YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, Disney+, Max, etc. And that’s before we get into the bad faith false equivalence of comparing violence to nudity and sexuality. One is a natural and beautiful part of life, the other is literally violence.

      Why does scale matter? If it was only 50k kids daily would it change your mind?

  Am I the only one who beleives that it would have been a more effective arguement to try and use the 4th amendment instead of the first? Violating free speech is just a weak claim, but “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches…” seems quite relevent here. But I am also not a lawyer.
