If this could get a sticky it would be great. And there has to be some stuff we can get rid of at the top of the page (the troll warning comes to mind).

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.

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?

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.

Teens have enough distractions, the last thing we need to do is undermine parents abililty to control these savages.

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.

First of all, I'm almost 19.

Secondly, the "trash" comment is entirely subjective.

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