Ok, to start this off, Daniel, you're being stupid. Very stupid. As in 'you need to get a cat scan to figure out what kind of brain damage you have' kind of stupid.
1) The reason we're mentioning the story is because of the absurd amount of hipocracy involved with this woman. She's fighting a moral crusade because, somehow, homosexuals and abortion are damaging our nation's morals, but she's participating in kiddy porn. How is anyone supposed to take her seriously when she's trying to inject her moral code as law when that moral code includes kiddy porn?
2) As for how child porn is worse than regular porn, my rule for sexuality is that anything consenting adults want to do amongst themselves is fair game. I might have some questions about the 'consenting' part of the story since children can be easily coerced, but I can damn near guarantee that 'adults' and 'children' are different things. As for comparing it to other forms of 'gonzo' porn, let's take a look: rape, I'm cool with rape fantasy, as long as the porn involves people who are participating in that fantasy of their own free will. If you're into scat porn or golden showers, same thing. There are a lot of bdsm videos out there, and as long as all the participants are in it of their own free will, I'm good.
Ugh. Right now, Danny is making me think of this:
