So, let me get this straight, it's illegal (in Ohio at least) for someone to write down their personal thoughts, even though they are purely ficticous, don't harm another person and are not distributed to others.
Well, how about if a person just thinks those thoughts? is that ok? how is that really much different from just keeping a written record as opposed to a mental record. It's just data being stored in a different way.
Perhaps in the future, when we have mind scanning devices(?) people will be put in prison for having such offensive material stored in their brains, in the form of private thoughts.
