Peer reviewed scientific research by Professor Milton Diamond conclusively proved that access to porn and, yes, even child porn take the edge off natural or perverted sex drives and thus clearly reduces sex crimes.
Nevertheless, feminists and religious zealots strive to take all sexual outlets away from men, be it prostitution, sex travel, or mere pornography for masturbation. Thus these politicians bear partial responsibility for increasing sex crimes against women and children, and probably for the mayhem created by Elliot Rodger.

Yep, definitely a fine example of human stupidity.
You're also justifying child porn, that's just evil.
Not really sure what`s he talking about, but from what I do get, he`s raging against censoring/outlawing porn and prostitution. Kinda meh, really, I will even agree with the pervert porn, as long as it`s only of the drawn kind.
Doubt that legalising prostitution would`ve helped assholes like rodgers, though. It really wasn`t about sex as much as his twisted vision of a relationship(ie. it was about possesing a woman exclusively).
Child porn is exploitative. Still, when we give the Male Privilege Meatheads porn, they're like, "It isn't enough! Waaah! I want a woman in real life!"
Waaaah! Society is so unjuuuuust! Waaaaah!
You know there's also a research that shows that regular exposure to porn screws up with a reward centre inside a person's brain, right? Because of this, people experience a need to watch more and more hardcore porn over time, at one point switching to extreme/fetish/whatever porn just to experience the same kind of reward as before. So, constantly watching porn is not a good thing either.
"Nevertheless, feminists and religious zealots"
I thought feminists were creating porn to send the religious zealots to hell.
If the child porn is anime, sure. Otherwise, a sex crime must have been committed to produce the child porn, asshole!
Someone or something taught Elliot Rodger that he was somehow entitled to the bodies of women. That someone or something is responsible for the mayhem created by him. Feminists have the radical idea that men AND women have equal value and ought to be treated equally. Men AND women should have the same rights, responsibilities and opportunities.
Dear Human Stupidity; if you and other men in your circle of friends are so starved of sexual outlets, why not "get it on" together; release those sex drives with each other, produce your own pornography? Why should women and children suffer for your pleasure?
Porn is legal (and beneficial). And while I'm all for legalizing prostitution (mainly because then we would be able to regulate it and stop abuse), the rest of your post is sick and vile. You are NOT entitled to sex, child porn is horrible, exploitative, and children cannot consent, Elliot Rodger was a terrible person, and it is up to the man to control himself. Even if there's no porn in the world.
You're still ultimately responsible for your own actions, dumbass. True I think that everyone should have access to porn (not child porn) if they want it, but claiming that not having it is justification for sex crimes puts you squarely in asshole territory.
Correlation:
Countries that are more religious and have stricter sexual repression tend to be more violent.
--The Middle East, where religion runs almost every aspect of life and where a woman even showing a little ankle is taboo, is very violent.
--The U.S., there the Christians try to run things and a 1/10 of a second nipple shot during a Superbowl causes hysterical outrage, has fairly high rates of violent crime.
--Most of Western Europe, where religion doesn't really matter much and where you might see some bare breasts being sunned in the city park on a summer day tends to be more peaceful.
While I don't agree with this guy's justification of child porn, I do see where reducing this countries sexual repression just might contribute to a reduction in violent crimes. Also, getting religion out of everything might help too.
Child porn is bad.
There is an argument for prostitution to be legalized, but not under the circumstances we see in most cities.
Regular porn? go ahead and use it. No skin off mine.
The problem with child porn is not on the consumer's side, it's on the production side.
Even for adult porn, in fact. Many porn actors died early(suicide is rather common, and there are those diseases.....).
Um, Milton Diamond says that such freedoms, like all freedoms, can be abused. I think you're misrepresenting him.
@ anthoga
You just...you just linked to the Daily Mail. An extremely right-wing publication that has a history of "stretching the truth". We have dozens of quotes from them here.
I almost have to assume you're trolling at this point, considering your original comment was almost word-for-word similar to some quotes in the FSTDT archives.
First line: Basically good, minus the child porn part (drawn child porn is okay, though).
Second line: No. Internet pr0nz is just as available as it ever was (at least in the US), and if you have to go to a foreign country to sleep with child prostitutes you need help. Elliot Rodger has himself to blame, because he rejected everyone who tried to help him, couldn't pick up on any social cues that he needed help, couldn't recognise his own problems, associated with a crowd of people who helped him blame his problems on women, and failing all else, couldn't peacefully off himself instead of ruining the lives of others.
@anothga
I was taught that in the fundamentalist Christian school I went to about porn. I am almost certain it's fake, and I think most men (or even women?) could probably confirm from experience. Nice Daily Fail link, too.
@Greater Good
The problem is the fact that I didn't check what exactly I was linking. My mind just went full autopilot. My mistake.
I'm not trying to troll. In attempt to demonstrate that, I'll just show myself out of this after I finish writing this comment.
@TimeToTurn
I admit I probably made a mistake. I should have double-checked this.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
