So. The definition of adult material has now drastically changed. Everything is porn. Body modifications is obscene. Ohh goodness.

Can somebody say CENSORSHIP!

It's hard for me to imagine a world where people didn't seriously consider these kind of things and that's pretty sad. America is staring to lose it's luster and is on the slippery slope between censorship and anarchy. I give it 20 more years before this country of ours becomes corrupt and the true atrocities begin. Who knows? We may get a decent war out of this in a couple of decades. Then everyone would suffer from the power vacum and we'll have another depresion that will suffacate anyone left. This is if the planet is nuked first.

I've been saying this for a few years now. In so many words anyway.

I need a hug.

I don't want to live in your future.  Obviously nothing like this has ever happened in the past and this signals the near end.  Oh, and the sky is falling, too.

Somehow I doubt censoring porn will result in nuclear war. However, people really do love tits, so I guess we'll see.

This bill is, however, absolutely ridiculous.

Cool. You can now actually be a real, bona-fide criminal -hell; a FELON!(for street cred!), but still be a decent, harmless, contributing member of society. Kickass!
