Graphic Artists Condemn UK Ban On Erotic Comics
mdwh2 writes "Graphic artists, publishers and MPs have condemned the UK's Coroners and Justice Bill, which will criminalize possession of sexual depictions that appear to show someone under 18 (the age of consent is 16 in the UK), as well as adults where the 'predominant impression conveyed' is of someone under 18, and even if they are merely drawn as being present whilst sexual activity took place between adults. The definitions could include Lost Girls, Watchmen, and South Park. The Comic Book Alliance has launched a petition against the law."
Do you have kids ?
Wanna fight ? Bend over, stick your head up your ass, and fight for air.
The difference it makes is that if you've never had kids then you can only reliably argue half the facts, meaning your argument is flawed from the get-go.

This. A thousand times this.
I actually meant that child pornography is obscene and not all obscenity is child porn. It was poorly worded.
There's several things to consider if for instance cartoon child porn is tried in the same way as actual child porn. I've heard pedos argue that child porn hurts nobody, when obviously the child involved is being harmed. This doesn't negate the fact that the viewer can be harming themselves by seeing it. In the case of virtual child porn, someone is still being hurt in the sense they are satisfying their urge to see children in a sexual manner. This probably wouldn't be a big deal if it didn't lead in many cases to child abuse, or at least the risk thereof.
Considering that, dealing with "virtual child porn" in this manner doesn't seem unreasonable. Certainly a lesser crime than actual child porn, but still a situation that needs attention.
You're partially right. Religion = incest, rape, murder, and genocide (and don't forget about rampant sexism in general). Fuck getting rid of literature. Get rid of religion! Illiterate tribes in several countries still manage to have crazy beliefs that cause physical harm to those in and around their community.
That sounds furry to me. The sentence is death by crucifixion. Next!

Shutting down free speech with violence isn't fighting fascism. It IS fascism!
Doesn't have to be proven. Let's say climate change is not prooven, obviously laws against it are still legitimate.
It's the lawmakers decision on whether to punish something or not, if there is an understandable reason.
And no, harming yourself is not your own business. Otherwise, ALL drugs would have to be allowed. And no one would come to stop your suicide.
