You loathe simple justice so passionately and fear reality so desperately, you have no compunction about stooping so low as to suggest I’m a liar rather than face up to the obvious infantilization of society you benighted, vacuous, truth-hating cowards have wrought. I was surprised by the coincidence of the scene in the barber shop myself, but the one thing we’ve learned about coincidences is that they seem oddly too _ **rare** _ rather than too common. Whoever says “there are no coincidences” is a blithering fool. As the CSICOP links and FBI statistics confirm, if children were separated from the adults who represent by far the greatest and most dire child and child sex abuse threats they face, parents would never be allowed anywhere _ **near** _ their own kids! You clearly number among those who should be forbidden this, too. Please report yourself to the authorities immediately. ---

This weeks episode of House did something very similar - maybe the lyrics were not the same, and house wasn;t singing. But there was mention of an industrial strength vibrator - to children - in a classroom - intercut with two school age children almost kissing. Where’s the outrage? huh? huh? ---

[Quote=user\_hostile] Probably because he’s from Serbia… [/quote] Really? Mmmm, I wonder if the recent movie _‘A Serbian Film’_\* has made it to his radar; Now there’s a movie that at least that has some (well, loads of, really) content definitely worth being upset over. - Was this even released in the US? Probably not. ---

I was trying to dig up an unrelated thread and came across this one. the guy was eventually sentenced to 60 days in jail, 2 years probation, 200 hours community service and counseling. Plus he can’t come within 500 feet of schools or anywhere people under 17 congregate.

He was 21 and his life is probably ruined. I’m glad the only kids I ever interact with are my nieces. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/zc--FjGgAig/hqdefault.jpg "Bill Burr ....

> [@Hal Briston](#): > > Children aren’t harmed when someone writes child-based sex stories. You can still go away for quite a long time for either one of them, though. I have a copy of Lolita (well, it’s my younger sisters, but I’ve read it). Which authority should I report myself to? Also, I’ve heard of an artist in the US country that depicts underage girls in sexual situations. Her name is Melinda Gebbie. Shall I report her too? ---

He was really stupid, even he admits that, but applying the original charge to him was outrageous, and it does seem like his life isn’t over. ---

Two years missed at the age of 21 is like 5 or 6 years at a later age. Everyone in Michigan should be ashamed of themselves, and I mean that.
