Contrary to what some people and paranoia seed planting non-Americans might believe, the government couldn't care less if some people like to masturbate to midget transsexuals.

Furious female the fact that LadyMischief isn't American has NOTHING to do with this thread or the AMERICANS that have posted to it. That was a low blow on your part and shows the weakness of your stance.
I think you mistaken our concern for our country as "paranoia". You are the type of person who, if you lived in Germany during the reign of Hitler, would say.. "nothings wrong"... "if you're doing nothing wrong you have nothing to fear as long as you follow the rules". Bullshit! If we sit back and let the government do anything they want we will end up like Russia or China. Those are REAL examples of what complacency of citizens will lead to in a countries development. This has also happened in Korea. The fact that we as a people are constantly having to fight for our rights against our own government should be concerning to you unless your to busy being "furious" to deal with reality.
" if you do nothing wrong... you have nothing to be ashamed of. "
I don't know you , so please don't take this personally but that is the most ignorant statement I've read all day. Do I really have to sit here and cite ALL of the cases, on GFY alone, where people in the adult industry have been, and are, being prosecuted, even while following the law? " if you do nothing wrong... you have nothing to be ashamed of. " I personally went through a court case last year, for nine months of my life, where my religious BABYSITTER was trying to take my son away because I had an ADULT site... and you say " if you do nothing wrong... you have nothing to be ashamed of. " ???? What you will be put in jail for are directly related to the Patriot II.. it defines what is right or wrong.. worse off.. it leaves certain people to define it.. not "we the people"
"if you do nothing wrong... you have nothing to be ashamed of. "
Shame has nothing to do with anything.. it's your right to be innocent until proven guilty and the Patriot II takes those rights away.. period.. end of story.
I'm not saying "The sky is falling" but I am saying look up now and then or something might knock you out!
