I thought you'd enjoy my response presented in the dialect and cadence of your ticket's number two.
Shooter is one who distorts and lies and doesn't love America the way you and I do, is one who, when the time is for upholding values of this nation's founding fathers, who as ones who believed in constitutionally protected freedom, did want to make sure taht BIG government would stay out of their private lives, and not be one who is snooping in their dildo and leather collection. Shooter is one who, if he wants to continue this line of attack, should publish his internet download list, so that we, as ones who are interested in every little thing every one else is doing, would want to know about he is spending his tax rebate. That's your money people. People of who I am one.
One must be truly addled to find anyone, anywhere, in this post saying S & M porn is an "ideal."
But to say its production and use is beyond the pale, in a country that engages in torture, rendition, and illegal wars is about as silly as it gets. The fact is that many people, from the Marquis de Sade on down, have strange sexual tastes that others might find repulsive or obscene. In a free country, it is not the government's job to decide what this is.
Rich Lowry can do whatever he wants when Sarah Palin winks at him, a thought I happen to find repulsive, but certainly not criminal.
To the authoritarian, obscenity is anything they personally don't like, or at least pretend not to for rhetorical purposes.
The point here is the misuse of prosecutorial power and resources to fight phony "wars" while real criminality pervades the government and Department of "Justice." Those are your tax dollars at work, and your "small" government's priorities, Shooter.
I feel like Joe Biden after one of Sarah Palin's debate answers....where to begin? Where to begin?
Just a little quote first:
What I don't understand is why would one victimization be seen as legitimate and the other not?-- hyblaean
One person's "victimization" is another person's "freedom of choice" and another person's erotica. One could argue that drugs (and alcohol), pornography, prostitution, gambling, and pretty much all the vices victimize someone. But, as we know, some are sanctioned, some are illegal, all are profitable.
Just for the record, I have no use for porn, but the issues I see here are twofold: one, First Amendment freedoms, and two: selective enforcement of dubious laws and the manipulation of the justice system. Nothing new under the sun, here, folks.
However, I'm still making a scrinchy face with regard to Heru-ur's take on porn after our lively discussion on his feelings about unplanned pregnancies/sex/abortion.
Just goes to demonstrate that complexity that is human personality.
P.S. To Good Celery - It took me a little while, but I'm beginning to comprehend your freestyle poetry. Cyber "terr-rist fist jab" to ya, buddy. xx
Shooter 242 is on the run. Scrambling down a blind alley firing as he goes. Soon you'll see that classic moment from the classic western where he runs out of bullets and throws the gun. The fact is, GG is right and shooter is wrong and so is the government he supports. Anyone who could look at those photos and speak up bravely in defence of such cowardice and depravity has got an ideological straitjacket wrapped around their brain.
I have seen nothing in Shooter's "body of work" that would suggest that he favours a small government. Nothing at all.
He favours a government large enough to make every human in the world behave just as he would have you behave. (and no larger)
Heru-ur.... Ah, I got caught thinking that someone so opposed to taxes would favor a smaller government. Silly me. Just as people with less money favor cheaper restaurants.
But not when you're a Republican. Create a huge, bloated, overweening and costly government, and hand the bill to the grandchildren.
Go to Nobu for dinner... You can always jump the check.
I am one still waiting for your internet histories list. I must sure not be part of this BIG government Washington Insidering, since I am still surprised that you are not more open about all of the aspects of your private life. That's what's one being an outsider is all about, having one's privacy all on the outside. Not the inside. The inside is dark like Obama and other African terrorists. You are not dark, you are one of us, so show us your porn, unless you are one who is like Obama, and not only black, but also a porno-terrorist. You are insider and Washington beltway fiend, and also you must also pal around with porno-terrorists because you do not love America as we do. Because you are a secret S&M porn-using super-freak. Not sexual mavericks like us, with our history of maverickism.

Then you missed the whole show on the other thread. (no surprise there)
In the case Glenn posted about today, we see no killing, force, coercion, fraud, or threats as far as we know by what has been presented here. If all parties involved are adults and consent to these acts then there can be no crime. I will repeat. There can be no crime. (no real crime; obviously the government can criminalize most any natural act; and they often do)
Vice is when you hurt yourself and you may hurt yourself all you want in a free land. It should be a crime to hurt others; no matter how helpless they are. (or; especially when they are helpless)
Somehow my Palin impression veered dangerously close to your all's respective copyrighted posting techniques. Do not sue me, I am one who is like America and goshdarn broke.
The difference between what Mr. Little has been found guilty of, and sentenced for, and what the DOJ and the Bush administration has been determined to have done, and have been immunized for...
...is what's obscene.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
The accountability imposed by another country for the CIA's kidnapping and torture reveals much about our own.
Fox News' morning show plays to type, talking about whether Muslims in the Army should face "special debriefings"
The survivor and author is upset about comparisons some on the right are making to genocide
Once seen as a lunatic fringe, reactionary anti-women groups are courting respectability
