It’s kind of funny when you think about it. At 17, you’re biologically capable of becoming a parent (and in many cases, people do), but you’re not allowed to watch how it happens.
And what about just setting up a home router and blocking adult sites? That’s not an option? I just don’t see how this kind of ban is supposed to “protect” a 16- or 17-year-old, especially when, just as an example, that same teenager could pick up a hammer and beat an annoying neighbor to death.
By that logic, should we ban the sale of hammers too?
It’s just odd to me that the U.S. is going down this road. These kinds of laws are usually something you’d expect from, well… let’s just say, places that have a few issues with democracy.
