While I'm not particularly a fan of pornography myself, as long as people aren't pushed into the field, I have no objection to it. Declaring it illegal would only force it underground, where it would be harder to regulate and would end up similar to prostitution—where disease and drugs are rampant and dead hookers end up in ditches.

Yeah man we should totally make murder legal too because it happens anyway amirite?

Very chill.

That is in now way the same thing. Murder is the wrongful killing of a person, taking someone's life without their consent. Pornography (and prostitution as well, especially if it was legalized and government regulated) is consensual. Not only that, pornography does not pose any immediate dangerous threat to your person.  

What exactly is so morally degrading about porn? It's an expression of sexuality.

So is taking illegal drugs. That's still illegal.

Just because something is illegal, that doesn't make it inherently wrong. Your logic is so skewed! You've given no real basis for why anyone in the field of pornography should be locked up. If you don't like porn, don't watch it and move to the suburbs. YOU DON'T HAVE TO PARTICIPATE. Why is sexuality always assumed to be filthy or morally degrading?

It's self-evident you stupid bitch. For the same reason gays shouldn't be allowed to marry.

It's morally WRONG and damages the fabric of our society.

You saying that it's morally wrong IS NOT A REAL BASIS. What fabric is there to be damaged? Last time I checked our society was the least popular in the world, has killed hundreds of thousands of people in pointless wars, has the highest divorce rate of any country in the world, is morbidly obese and drunk on driving. America is founded on personal freedom, as long as they are not at the expense of others. I challenge you to come up with one specific example of a way that same-sex marriage or pornography ACTUALLY effect you personally.

Everyone has the right to exist. You cannot claim the moral high-ground if you're saying that people should just drop dead, nor if you're calling everyone who disagrees with you names. Like I said: there is no moral fabric of society to uphold, and even if there was, these people are not degrading it. They are minding their own business and living their own lives. They are not going out of their way to bother you, that is all in your own head. Ignore it rather than making ignorant, unfounded and cruel remarks to a bunch of strangers over the internet.

Whatever you say. You can go back to sleeping with other women and getting AIDS or whatever you blasphemous sinners do with your time.

I'll be busy trying to save America from people like you.

Saving America by posting inflammatory topics on teen internet forums? What a productive member of society you are! My hero.

Obviously you don't. If you actually cared enough about this topic and actually had more of a basis for your argument other than "rot in hell you stupid blasphemous bitch," you would be out actively trying to change laws or raise awareness. Instead, you and your narrow-minded ideas merely brew in bitterness infront of the computer screen to be released upon teenagers who really don't give a fuck.
