Yea if you want freedom to be taken advantage off and exploited. Our job is to protect people not create legislative anarchy under the guise of freedom.

Allowing teenagers to buy porn doesn't take advantage of them or exploit them or harm them in any way.

Though, it could harm their parents.
I say, make it legal for them to view porn, just illegal to buy it. If their parents are fine with it, they can buy it for them. They are their guardians, they should have some rights.

How on earth could it do that?

What about the people in the porn? As for the viewers we shouldn't be a party to encouraging the destruction of brain tissue which could better be appropriated to other things like there studies or something. Why do teens need to have porn? Is the the freedom of teenagers to effectively and efficiently masturbate now guarrenteed in the consitution?

Oh lord..

Not a high percentage of parents want their kids watching porn. That's why it probably became illegal in the first place. Parents complaining.

Then they'll have to get over it, that's just the way the world works. They can still take it away if they want to. It's not like we're making consumption of pornography compulsory.

Unless someone can prove harm done by allowing this, I'd advise you all to move on. No reason to come across as backward reactionaries unless you absolutely must.

Oh so now its modern and the in thing to let our children view out an out trash just so you can have your porn?

First of all, I'm almost 19.

Secondly, the "trash" comment is entirely subjective.

Thirdly, you still haven't proved that it's harmful.

You could always ban advertising of it while making it legal, you know. It isn't as though children will be buying or viewing the stuff anyway, and it's not like you can stop the teenagers.

I have devoted my teenage years to stopping other teenagers from stupidity with moderate success levels. I now how to stop teenagers, I have made it my passion. I have created lots of enemies doing this and pissed a lot of people off, but its the only thing that I have done where I feel good about it as an achievement. First off Gov't has to get on the side of the parents and not teenagers, that is non-negotiable.

There is no harm in such a thing. We're not encouraging teenage drug use. I don't know what Pat Robertson-led dystopia you fly off to at night, but this is Atlasia, not some sort of fundamentalist society.

Wait until the debate thread officially opens, and I'll be happy to deal with your nonsense from the bible scholar you cited.

I used to especially the Monarchic form, but not anymore. I have come to "accept" Democracy and the political freedoms that come with it. The social structure is still a necessity what I basically want is a more inclusive, less racist/sexist 1950's culture.

So you want the 1950's without everything that made the 1950's the 1950's. Okay.

and one more defeat for a culture that isn't a septic tank.

Three is a charm
Two is not the same
I don’t see the harm
So are you game?

Lets’ make a team
Make ‘em say my name
Lovin’ the extreme
Now are you game?

Are – you in
Livin’ in sin is the new thing (yeah!)

I'm probably the fourth or fifth most libertarian person, if not in the top three, active in fantasy politics.

wow


lol

Yeah, Vepres idea of libertarianism is "I don't have to stand up for what I say I believe in when the chips fall and my political friends are circling the wagons against it."

So every Libertarian who refuses to join the ARC is no longer a Libertarian. My if we tried this sh**t we would be crucified yet the ARC can get away with this crap. Where is the obnoxious feel good leftists media organizations when you need them?

Waiting until after the election.

Are you even technically still able to do that now that you are a Justice?

Nothing prevents it as far as I know, it's just an old tradition. Extremely active people generally aren't selected as Justices so it's usually led to the reputation of a quiet body.

Oh I won't be quite as vicious I think and I'll stop commenting directly on Senate matters (for the most part..) and I certainly won't comment on questions of constitutionality, but I'm not going to simply disappear.

Marokai dissappearing would be an absolute crisis for Atlasia. We could never allow that to occur. Wink

For sure! Wink

Yes, there are too many stickies at the top of this board.

Especially since the first post hasn't even been updated in ages.

This seemed to lose interest so I kinda lost track of it. I'm fine with it being removed, since people seem to: a) prefer to post directly in the Senate and b) senators don't seem to mind as much as they used to.

Oh I wasn't really complaining to you, I just don't see the use of this thread anymore, really. Sadly, focus in Atlasia has turned away from legislative affairs, and there's not really much fun in the Senate now anyway.
