        Good one. You want to lock people up but people who believe in the first amendment are creepy. Nice spoof of moral panic populism.

            True. Freedom of speech and of the press is a peculiarly American thing. In virtually all other countries… No, wait. That’s the 2nd amendment. What were we talking about?

          Good one. You want the freedom to create any porn you want regardless of who it hurts without any personal accountability.

              Putting in safeguards to protect people from porn being made of them is fascism?

              Like I said. Weird hill.
