taking down statues of our Founding Fathers,

They are statues. I never saw those statues in New York. That didn't make me a subject of the British Crown.
Taking down a statue doesn't remove the Constitution.

Do statues have constitutional rights?

If a city owns a statue can't they remove it if they want to?

Books don't have Constitutional rights so burn away!

You are the one who equates statue removal with book burning not me.

So rescue the books that are being banned.

There’s such thing as sexual fetish for statues.

I hereby declare that I have said fetish and I’m suffering emotional distress from being discriminated against. I need monetary damages and a safe space to go to near each removed statue so I can handle the trauma.

I always try, though I am not in favor of allowing children access to gay porn.

Are you?

So you are for gay porn for children

See? You burn books to keep the frogs from turning gay, others topple statues for reasons that would involve a certain banned part of history.

The book burners at it again.

a reply to: Insurrectile

Are you for or against gay porn being available for children?

It’s a rather easy question.

Just ask him what book he's talking about, and which schools it was in.

I'll just have Senator Kennedy recite the passages.

There is a search engine.

It's called Google.

I suggest doing research online before debating people with the appropriate skills.

Aren't you the 1st amendment absolutist around here? I'm not.

Nearly every state has some form of harmful-to-minors law. Many of these laws limit distribution of sexually explicit material to minors. The majority of these laws have survived constitutional challenge. For example, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a Georgia law regulating the display of material harmful to minors in American Booksellers v. Webb (11th Cir. 1990). The Tennessee Supreme Court upheld a similar law in Davis-Kidd Booksellers, Inc. v. McWherter (Tenn. 1993).

I agree with the state laws, mostly. Not just about gay sexually explicit, but hetero, and mixed too.

However, a guy wearing a dress doesn't seem any more explicit than a girl wearing a dress. Girls wearing pants isn't too explicit either.

a reply to: pthena

DO you want children being exposed to gay porn?

Not a hard question.

A yes or no would suffice.

Let me repeat myself:

Ahhh

So you won’t answer the question.

At one point, Italian immigrants felt proud of Columbus, like other ethnicities have heroes. They have faced discrimination coming to America too.

That's not how it works. Show me what you're mad about. Which book, which school?

Search engines don't tell me about your feels.

What parts of America did Columbus ever step foot in?

Give me your very detailed definition of gay porn. Then I will say yes or no.

In interdisciplinary investigations into the relationships between pornography and its audiences, the issue of how to define the object of study is more complex than in studies situated within a single discipline. A Delphi panel of 38 leading pornography researchers from a wide range of disciplines was asked about various topics, including the definition of pornography. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of two rounds of survey responses suggested two different and—at first sight—incompatible definitions operating. The first was “Sexually explicit materials intended to arouse.” The second was a culturally relative definition suggesting pornography has no innate characteristics. This technical report suggests that we should encourage researchers to choose which definition they want to use in a self-reflective way depending on the needs of the project, so long as they make it explicit and justify their decision.
