Waitaminnit: Sex and Violence are both considered bad things? That doesn't make a lot of sense to me. The advertising industry doesn't agree.

I can understand if the group known as Pathetic Retards Incessantly Contemplating Kindergarden Security (P.R.I.C.K.S.) need to cut down on breeding by pumping kids full of Sex-Is-Bad mentality. Simple population control. Hey, that's another fine use for the military; sending young males off to die. Same purpose; it makes fathers feel less sinful about lusting after their own daughters. I say go ahead and f*ck em and be done with it. The only real consequence is the daughter will marry an older father-figure man instead of someone from her generation. Hey, that gives the new family a financial strength, and the young males a chance to develop more fully. 'Cause men need that

So why is it a bad thing? Too many of the Doogooders Under Moral Bonds (D.U.M.B.) people deciding that a good thing to do would be to psychologically cripple the next generation.

In Canada, an older school-teacher married (Not officially) a teenager. I still remember the gist of their statements in the newspaper.

Her: 'This is the greatest thing that ever happened to me! We'll be together forever and ever!'

Him: 'It'll do untill something better comes along.'

There's a huge gap between 14-18. There's another one between 18-22 and once I'm 26, I'll probably marvel at how I was when I was 23.

Oh, and explain to me how liberals can beleive both that people are mature, rational adults who can make decisions about their sex lives and the beleif that people who are attracted to each other will have sex, no matter what. Keep in mind I'm a 25-year old virgin while you do this.

A lot of these "zero-tolerance" laws for violence/threats came out right after Columbine. When most laws of this sort can be passed after a crisis (like the Patriot Act, placing Japanese Americans in internment camps in WW II, etc.). People seem to knee-jerk react during a crisis, creating powerful laws, but then don't go back and repeal the laws when common sense kicks in.
