Re: This is not because of "child porn" Slavery used to be legal, so I guess the fact that it wasn't a crime made it OK. Women not being able to vote used to be legal... OK? Being a "crime" has little to do with something being "acceptable" or not; it's about a small group of individuals getting together and wanting to exert control over others... for the sake of the common good, of course... certainly not for some lobbyist with the most money, certainly not because they have such higher moral values (what's the ratio of legislators in jail versus non-legislators?). Oh, yeah, something being a crime or not is all that matters for it to be considered unacceptable. |
