As Spider-Pig points out, it's a business.I wouldn't particularly want a florist next door either. Or even a chocalte store (and I love chocolate). And I did say it wasn't a major issue. |

But an adult book store is a major issue for most. And I'm sure that many of the people who bitch about Santorum's comments would want the adult book store or strip club to be far away from their own home. They probably wouldn't mind the florist.

I think by definition, exploitation can only exist when one party has an advantage over the other and uses that advantage for personal gain. If all parties are forced into doing something, that is not exploitation. |

A slaughterhouse is noisy, messy, smelly, takes up a lot of space, and so forth. How is a porn shop all those things? You have people going in, and it's pretty contained inside. For the record, I wouldn't want it next door either, but to compare it to the same type of thing as a slaughterhouse is absurd. |

Raw Sewage and a treatment plant would have far more reaching impact that a porn shop. The smell, noise, waste, and space needed for one alone would make it a horror. Now how does that even remotely compare to a porn shop? Another absurd comparison. |

You are pointing out why Luch's original comment was absurd.He said "How can you support porn being legal when you don't want a porn shop next door?" And we gave multiple examples of things we support being legal that you don't want next door. It emphasizes the absurdity of the question. Of course a sewage plant or a slaughterhouse is far worse next door than a porn shop. |

And Spider-Pig and I point out numerous legal activities that we do not want next door.We are pointing out that tT both support the legality of an activity and to not want it next door are not a sign of hypocrisy. |

While it wouldn't be great to have a porn store next door, it's not even close to being as bad as having a sewage treatment plant, or a slaughter house nextdoor. They aren't even the remotest bit comparable. |

In general, while I am not a fan of porn at this point in my life, I would not outlaw it except in certain very narrow circumstances. There is a large segment of the population that would not be adversely affected by porn but there are those who could conceivably see porn such as in the example that I mentioned and suddenly have to act on the idea portrayed. Many years ago I was acquainted with 3 people in the business end of the industry. For the reason stated, they would never make a film that depicted teen girls even if the actress was in her 20s. They also stayed away from images of school uniforms or story lines that involved teacher-student or incest. |
