Could the EU do something good for once? : Fri Mar 08, 2013 2:24 pm  

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/n ... raphy.html Do you think a ban on all forms of pornography would be good? Would certainly change the internet and put a number of shabby publications out of existence. It'll free up so much leisure time for millions and increase workplace productivity. Also could be the beginning of the end for Google et al. Can't really see a down side of a ban.

To answer your title question ... it already has ... in countless ways.

To answer your subsequent question ... no, and the vote will say the same.

I thought you were anti-EU anyway?

Mind you, the Mail Online would have to smarten up its act a bit and remove all the kiddie porn from its website.
So, such a vote wouldn't be ALL bad.

Pornography ruins countless relationships and it is also responsible for a dramtic increase in sexual violence over the last 20 or so years.

I think it would be better if it weren't as readily available.

Particularly about what those gays do to each other.







You thinking what I'm thinking? A bit Freudian, perhaps?

Because porn has only existed for 20 years.

And not one piece of evidence has been able to prove a link between violence and porn – despite 30 years of concerted attempts to find exactly that.
