Respectfully:

1. I think censorship laws are abhorrent

2. It can be very difficult to tell what effect media has on you, and just because you do not (say) find yourself traumatised or find that your perceptions have been overtly altered does not mean you have not been negatively affected. And you will certainly never be unaffected by anything you experience or do. This is something that I've become more sensitive to and aware of as I've gotten older. And further, it is only through this sensitivity and awareness, and acceptance of the fact that I cannot just decide by fiat how things will affect me, that I have gained some measure of control.

Why is it my problem that you, a different human being, have control issues? Perhaps your hardware is faulty and should be selected away from the gene pool. Why is that a reason to make my life worse?

Anyways it's better to get you hooked up on porn than on drive-by shootings or almost any other anti-social behavior.

It is not provable that I was negatively affected by perceptions of I say I wasn't.

Nor is it provable that you weren't. Which is the point of the previous comment. Anyways, enjoy the nosebleed material...
