any politicians wanna maybe legalize porn? Its pretty popular
I'm not saying this because I disagree with you; porn does need stronger and more direct local legislation regarding production, consumption, and oversight; thus making it "legal". However, just because something is popular doesn't make it right. Murder is extremely popular - look at the murder rates around the world, it's obviously a highly popular activity. Should we make that legal too? At what rate of popularity do we stop making things legal to serve the will of the mob?
If every country in the world had a murder rate equivalent to the worst ones, and every murder was done by someone who had never killed before, 0.2% of people would be murderers. I mean, I agree with the idea that popular isn't right, but, murder isn't popular anywhere in the world, and I do think there's some "popularity" threshold where something that may not be "right", should still be legal - but I'm thinking that's like "if 60% of the population does it, maybe we shouldn't try and throw 60% in jail", and not, "if 2 people in a thousand do something"
Porn is going to exist whether it is legal or not. The difference is that when it's underground it's MUCH more likely to abuse the people involved. I mean hell, even while it is legal people are still being abused. It would be much better to keep it legal and focus on laws protecting the workers involved in the industry. The alternative would work the same as abortion, it's about inhumane punishment for "immorality" instead of concern over the treatment in the industry itself
