This thread is still going ? Maybe the mods are cooler than I thought
Ubertino's forum posts
[QUOTE="Vanadium2k8"][QUOTE="Ubertino"] Like a gaming forum provides a benefit to society .... A lot of thing do not provide benefits but that does not mean they should be illegal. As for the rape remark .. what you said would imply that prior to the appearance of porn ( movies , images, etc ) rape rates were really low. 1. rape rates may appera to increase because population increases. 2. sexual offences are reported more frequently now than in the pastXturnalS

Look at the top, and now look at the bottom.
You'll still looking at it as a cause and effect, while its nothing more then a correlation. There isn't any evidence to suggest that with the introduction of porn that way it is now that rape has gone up. Besides its not like sexual images are of anything new to any society, history shows us that.Listen to this man!!!! CORRELATION =/= CAUSATION Number 1 rule

Yes it shows that in the countries at the top victims are encouraged to speak out so there are more reports. You are telling me that Russia or China or India have such a low sexual assault rate ? Or is it that speaking about it causes shame for the victim and the family so most of the cases are never reported. Plus I see that Netherlands where so many things that " do not benefit society " are legal ( prostitution , drugs , a LOT more porn) is nr. 24.
So you are saying that porn should be illegal ?
Why not. There are almost no benefits to porn in society, it increases rape rates dramatically. It should be, but it won't be, money talks. Well, if you want to discuss this in OT then I'll be glad.Like a gaming forum provides a benefit to society .... A lot of thing do not provide benefits but that does not mean they should be illegal.

here is the law for those lazy to look it up, or atleast the law in NY

As Justice Goodman asserts, most of us typically think of prostitution as involving a customer who pays a prostitute for providing sexual services to that customer. We intuit that pornography, by contrast, involves a customer paying an actor for providing sexual services to another actor.
In other words, prostitution is generally understood as the bilateral trading of sex for money, while pornography involves the customer of an adult film paying money to watch other people have sex with each other, while receiving no sexual favors himself in return for his money.
which is bs to me, i mean how do you deine an actor in the court of law ? this is why i hate lobbyist sometimes. Both ciggerate and porn lobbyists should feel ashamed of themselves.

Welcome to the club. I just sent my PS3 for repairs today ( good thing I bought the 3 year extended warranty from Target ) . I also have a disk stuck inside , it's Saint's Row 2 and it's a rental from Blockbuster , so you can imagine that I'm going to be a "little " late with that return.

  Don't give yourself a hard time trying to get that screw out. I had the exact same problem when I upgraded to a 320 G HDD. The solution : call SONY!! They know the screws are to tight and if you complain ( like I did) they will sent you a new casing with 4 screws. Problem solved!Â
I don't think Microsoft or Sony would allow it. Some of the stuff they got away with in those games:shock:
Wow...
Seems like GeOW could be spearheading the recruitment campaign for the Homosexual agenda.I mean why else would there be big beefy men covered in mud and filth "rodeo"(another excuse to place a man's dirty butt in your face)running all over the place grunting and moaning?
