Republican lawmaker wants porn declared a health hazard

Posted by | December 31, 2016 08:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics

Virginia Delegate Robert Marshall

“is asking the state legislature to declare pornography a public health hazard — a move he hopes will pave the way for limits of some sort,” the Washington Post reports.

The measure does not call for any sort of ban, only a broad recognition of “the need for education, prevention, research, and policy change at the community and societal level in order to address the pornography epidemic that is harming the people of the Commonwealth and the nation.”

      If it really was a health hazard, would any of us be here still? lol

      • StoneyCurtisll December 31st, 2016 at 11:24

        I will “release” my findings at the appropriate time…:)

                • Suzanne McFly December 31st, 2016 at 21:44

                  Just keep being Stoney :)

    Dad says to his son, “Don’t masterbate because you will go blind.”

    Son says, “I’m over here dad?”

      Same with Santa, down your chimney… ;)

      • Larry Schmitt December 31st, 2016 at 10:21

        That’s a bit messy, isn’t it?

    • Suzanne McFly December 31st, 2016 at 10:18

      Oooh, they didn’t think that sign through, did they? lol

      • Larry Schmitt December 31st, 2016 at 10:24

        My brother used to drive for UPS, and he had a shirt that read “UPS drivers come three times a day.” When my father told him it was disgusting, he tried to pretend innocence. “It’s talking about delivering packages.” My father might not have been a genius, but he wasn’t a complete idiot.

        • Suzanne McFly December 31st, 2016 at 10:38

          Sounds like your brother enjoyed the implication lol.

        • Gina Bousquet January 1st, 2017 at 14:43

          The funniest of double entendres! :) UPS cannot have missed it

    • Tommie December 31st, 2016 at 13:45

      Classic!!

    Now they just have to agree on exactly what porn is. One man’s porn is another man’s art. We don’t want to go down that alley.

  4. Suzanne McFly December 31st, 2016 at 10:17

    Anyone who poses these ideas should have their computers inspected and look for the monster they are hiding.

    • Larry Schmitt December 31st, 2016 at 10:18

      They usually want to keep others from enjoying what they have discovered.

      • Suzanne McFly December 31st, 2016 at 10:19

        And what they “discovered” is a lot worse than what they are condemning.

        • Larry Schmitt December 31st, 2016 at 10:20

          It’s amazing, isn’t it, how often the loudest critics of the “gay agenda” turn out to have a boytoy hidden away somewhere.

          • Suzanne McFly December 31st, 2016 at 10:37

            You would think it would be a lot easier to just come out and support people who love one another.

            • amersham1046 December 31st, 2016 at 15:27

              but that would conflict with their holier than thou attitude

    Does this mean Moronia gets deported? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/696be4f7d58f9935aeda3245626c0c635ea7275db0f0d0574f466a54eb7fedd6.jpg

    “The resolution does not call for a ban but rather urges lawmakers to
    recognize the need for education and research to address what Marshall
    called an epidemic.”
    Education and research … isn’t that what everyone is doing now?

  7. Dwendt44 December 31st, 2016 at 12:12

    As the ‘Old South’ is the largest users/viewers of porn, what will they turn to instead?

    • fahvel December 31st, 2016 at 12:59

      you really do not want to know!

      • Tommie December 31st, 2016 at 13:44

        Funny!

      • amersham1046 December 31st, 2016 at 15:29

        cousins, goats and any other livestock that can’t out run them

    “Republican lawmaker wants porn declared a health hazard”

    Why?
    Did he have an erection lasting more than 4 hours?

      That is one old TV right there. Looks like my parents’ first color set.

    • bpollen December 31st, 2016 at 17:10

      I really like that the first time I heard it, and it’s still funny as hell…

  10. Charlie Seivard December 31st, 2016 at 13:15

    Republicans are a health crisis.

    • Willys41 December 31st, 2016 at 15:18

      More like a terrorist organization, since their obvious objective is the destruction of the US on behalf of their pal Vlad Putin.

  11. wpadon December 31st, 2016 at 16:31

    We’ll take the heroin and opioid users but we don’t want the porn stars.

  12. bpollen December 31st, 2016 at 17:12

    Frankly, if porn is a health hazard, you’re doing it wrong.

  13. Robert M. Snyder January 1st, 2017 at 00:13

    There are feminists who agree with this guy.
