As we all know by now, ten people died this week as they shopped at a King Soopers in Colorado.
The suspect, a 21-year-old Syrian immigrant, had a history of mental and anger issues. Yet, somehow, he got access to an AR-15. Clearly, there's a need for more gun control in America.
But to the Republicans, porn is worse.
On Tuesday, Spencer Cox, the governor of Utah, signed legislation that orders all smartphones and tablets sold in the state to have porn filters automatically on. But, the act will not pass unless five other states enact similar laws.
The bill was sponsored by state rep. Susan Pulsipher, who is an anti-porn advocate (and somebody who looks like Hillary Clinton's ugly twin). Sadly, Michigan also played a role in the measure. An organization called "Protect Young Eyes", headed by one Chris McKenna, said that they helped with the bill's creation. McKenna claims that most smartphones have porn filters, but they are hard to turn on. Under their legislation, all smartphones and tablets would already have the filters on. They claim that it's to "protect children" from porn.
And guess what? McKenna wants Michigan to be the next state to pass his law. As long as Big Gretch is governor, it hopefully will never happen.
Already, many have called the idea unconstitutional, including the ACLU. One porn star, Cherie DeVille also called on governor Cox to veto the measure because it infringes on constitutional rights.
Of course, this is Utah we're talking about. A state where the local NBC affiliate tape-delays Days Of Our Lives to 1 a.m. in the morning because the show has a gay couple. A state where in 2000, the local UPN affiliate dropped the network because there were too many shows geared towards African Americans. To add insult to injury, guess who owned that station, KJZZ? Larry Miller, the owner of the Utah Jazz! If I were the NBA, I would have yanked his franchise away from him (he died in 2009 while his widow, Gail, sold the team to billionaire Ryan Smith in 2020). A few years ago, the state legislature called pornography a "health risk", similar to Florida. As a matter of fact, I fondly remembered when survivors of the Parkland shooting massacre went to the state capitol in Florida to talk to state legislators to get tougher gun laws passed. Instead, they were pushed to the side while they declared porn as an "emergency" instead.
Utah and Florida's anti-porn stance reminds me of an old Simpsons episode when the family gets free cable, including a porn channel. The announcer claimed that it was not available in Florida or Utah. Ah, yes, Florida, where 2 Live Crew got arrested simply for performing "Me So Horny" in front of a crowd.
As I've mentioned way too making fucking times, the Rethugs are only interested in the peanuts when the elephants walk by. When Justin Timberfake accidentally yanked off Janet Jackson's bustier during the Super Bowl Halftime Show in 2004, they overreacted and made it tougher to broadcast free speech over the FCC-mandated airwaves. But when 30 kids were murdered at Sandy Hook, they did nothing. Here in Grand Rapids, if you want to look at naked women, you have to drive to either Muskegon or Lansing to do so (I'm not sure about the status of Deja Vu in Kalamazoo nowadays). But, I live just a stone's throw away from "Mr. Gun Dealer" where I can buy a Glock to make it easier for somebody like me to force a woman to take her clothes off.
Look, I picked up my first Playboy when I was 13. Not long afterward, while visiting a family member's house, I picked up one of his issues of Club Magazine. It was the first time I ever saw people having real sex. But guess what? It didn't make me want to go out and rape a young girl, like some idiot Jebus freaks think would happen.
However, I do agree that with younger children carrying tablets and smartphones these days, that the manufacturers of those devices should teach parents how to lock out adult sites. Same thing with TV manufacturers and the "V-Chip". But, I'm an adult and I don't need Rethugs treating me like a little kid just because of their twisted views on religion. Many Muslims shop at regular grocery stores, but don't buy pork because it's against their religion. Do they force-feed their beliefs onto others because they can't eat bacon? NO! Well, that's the problem with Christians, Moron-er, Mormons and other Jebus freaks. They try to throw us into a guilt trip that's on par with what was exposed in propaganda films like "Perversion For Profit", which BTW, was funded by convicted felon Charles Keating.
The good news, like I said, is that this law may never be passed since most people know that most forms of porn are indeed protected under the First Amendment. If you have a problem with adult entertainment, don't buy it and don't go to a strip club. This is a free and democratic society. End of story.
It's a shame when the party of less government is telling us that we need more.
