For a day? Who cares.

People who don't want government restricting what they can look at online care.

Porn junkies? I don’t care that they care. They are addicts. We can’t rearrange our entire society to please addicts who are causing harm.

Internet id for any website that may have adult content. And dipshits like you will support it

No don’t be riduculous. I support banning internet porn and putting people in jail for engaging in it.

And dip shits like you will support it even when its used to implement internet IDs. Eliminate porn, eliminate the justification. What could be simpler.

I'm torn on this. It seems likely a slippery-slope type of situation but pornography really is degenerate and bad for society, especially for young people, and with the ease of access and more extreme content available everywhere today it's really gotten out of hand.

Think of the shit that your average 12 year old has seen on line today. Probably alot of things that I didn’t even know existed until I was 30. Weird fucked up kinks. Yes this shit is scarring our kids for life.

Was there any doubt that this would happen?

You can't ban porn. Hell, they can't even ban crack or meth.

There’s like 10,000 other porn sites though.

They didn't ban pornhub. You need to provide ID to use certain sites with adult material. Pornhub said it shouldn't be up to an adult porn site to verify and hold information about who people are. They could be fined $50k if someone gets through. It's not worth their while so the just pulled out of florida. Other sites can do the same or check for id.
