>I would have thought that the mass production and consumption of violence in the entertainment industry is just as damaging to society as porn is.
====
Yup.
>i see you forgot about, or conveniently weren't around in the late 1800's early 1900's so you might've missed that particular bell curve.
====
Yes, I conveniently was not around 200 years ago or I forgot, I cant remember
Lets just focus on modern times, say the past 50 years, for clarity and ease of understanding. Our society is as sick as it has ever been and getting sicker. You disagree?
>making it illegal would only exponentially increase the amount of exploitation, and introduce other dangers for all parties involved.

A good point but not neccessarily true. I dont think anything can stop the decay. Just make people think a little deeper about the penalties of unregulated freedom to do anything, anytime, anywhere......
there was a beautiful bible quote i saw the other day to the effect of tend to your own house instead of looking for troubles in others'.

Glad your keeping up on biblical passages.
When my neighbor starts roaming the neighborhood peeping into windows, exposing himself to children on the street, breaking into homes raping single women, luring children into his house or car to take nude photos of them or molest them then I am pretty much involved whether I want to be or not. No doubt people that behave in that manner are inspired at some point by perverted extreme pornography.
In my community there has been a rash of sexual perverts lately visiting all manner of fear on women and children. Doing what perverts do. One man approaches women from behind and aggressively fondles their crotches and runs off. Another man takes off his shoes, breaks into homes and sits near sleeping women until they awake. Scaring the hell out of them before running out. Still again, a man has been attempting to lure young children into his car locally, several different people are working this way all across the sound. To think that pornography has no role in inspiring these sick people is wishful thinking. To think that pornography is good and should be protected at the cost of all other rights is the status quo these days. We are getting what we deserve.
Keep an eye on the murderer of the young girl in Florida. No one has yet said how she was killed except her father saying she died a "horrific death". I would be surprised to find that her killer was not a consumer of pornographic filth. Perverts love that stuff, feed off it. Its the animal within who feeds on that crap. Everyone has that animal inside them but most keep it contained with morality. Most people are not inspired to lunatic criminal behavior by decent respectable soft porn, or even the sick filthy stuff, but people who are inclined towards violant sexual predatory behavior are no doubt being inspired in harmfull ways for all those nearby.
Go ahead and fight to protect that garbage, all in the name of freedom, right? meanwhile keep an eye on your girlfriend, your wife, your kids...because today there is an army of perverts out there using freedom of filth to fuel themselves, to stalk your loved ones.
You deny it?
