(There is now a section which deals with... more net related and CP issues which apparently are more in line with required enforcement these days.)

Hustler, Playboy and Penthouse have paved the way for a general acceptance of porn/sex in America. So has the advertising industry. You could purchase porn at the same convenience store where your wife bought milk and your kids bought a slurpee. Gambling (cash only lotto) and cigarets are also available in the same store. NOTE: this store is also very safe.
First amendment rights were fought for, won, and accepted. (thanks Mr. Flynt)
Now the internet is here and the "fringe" elements start to appear.
*Now when you go to purchase your Playboy you must pass a Japanese girl eating shit and receiving a sperm bath.
*Your wife has to push her way thru rape, facial abuse, and cock-gagging displays before reaching the milk section.
*Your kids are shown photos of double ass fucking and horse cocksucking photos while waiting for their slurpees.
*Anyone in the family can use the charge cards to run-up gambling debt, not losses, debt ... big difference.
*Stalkers, con artists, thieves hassle you as you exit the store.
*Welcome to the net.
Now honestly, defend this. Expect older members of government to defend this, yea right. Too many of us have lost touch with the outside world. We are insiders feeling picked on, singled out.
We are our own worst enemies. Look how GFY members react to tub-girl, goatsee, animals and getting ripped off on small traffic, design deals, or shaving. Now imagine regular families.
When you look at the content of Hustler/Playboy and how the new 2257 regulations read we are loosing ground. The sad fact is this content isn't really even about sex. It's about pushing limits, being different, getting a quick buck.
Imagine Hefner showing extreme movies at one of his parties. You can't.
The owners of these sites don't have the resources to defend their own product either. As we are prosecuted for technical violations of already legal content, we will be financing and fighting for their right to continually push limits long past most of my own.
Just my rambling thoughts ... I don't see a clean end to this ..... Lee
