View Full Version : Republican Diane Black of Tennessee linking grocery story porn mags to gun violence



Blake
06-02-2018, 01:17 PM
"....Black, who is running for governor, blamed gun violence in schools on a myriad of issues: the “deterioration of family,” violent movies, mental illness and pornography. Without a strong support system, Black said, young people can “go in the wrong direction” after seeking “something” on the internet or with certain friends.

As for pornography, Black didn’t explain exactly how it contributes to gun violence, but she did say it is readily accessible.

“It’s available. It’s available on the shelf when you walk in a grocery store,” Black said. “Yeah, you have to reach up to get it, but there’s pornography there.”

“All of this is available without parental guidance, and I think that is a big part of the root cause that we have so many young people that have mental illness get caught in these places,” she continued......."

They still print porn magazines??? When was she last in a store...2001?



There are studies that show that having pornography readily available reduces domestic violence. I’d like to see her evidence to support pornography being at the root of teenage shooting sprees. Funny stuff.

Think for a second. Do you think Bundys relationship with mom and hatred of STEPDAD possibly had anything to do with Ted?

No no absolutely not. It was porn because he said so. Wake the fuck up and understand how important family can be. And this might not even be the reason.

No, no it’s porn because Ted said so.

And how many kids since the 80s have been taken hunting, to a gun range and handled guns and never went to shoot anyone? :downspin:

Not really aimed at your line, but moreover to human waste like Boots who think the existence of guns and gun ownership is essentially the sole reason every generation we see more and more psychotic kids killing loads of innocents. It's more of a social issue than the existence of guns issue and porn can be/probably is a part of it. Not so sure about skin mags, but super easy access on devices these that most of these little shits carry around.

Speaking of do-it-yourself, more than one academic cites porn as a reason young men are content to climb back into the family nest. “When I was a boy,” says Shaun Harper, a professor at Penn’s Graduate School of Education who studies how young men live and learn, “you had to work to find porn. And hide it! It was only available in an underground way.” Today, it’s as close as any website ending in .xxx. Researchers conducting a recent large study on porn and prostitution had trouble finding non-users to serve as a control group. An article in New York magazine last year described how young men have come to expect the “Porn Star Experience” from women, and find themselves faking orgasms when the real thing proves less satisfactory than the video version. No less than rock god John Mayer, whose girlfriends have included Jessica Simpson, Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift, told Playboy that he prefers masturbation to “real” sex: “Once I have to deal with someone else’s desires, I cut and run.” If you don’t even have to leave the house to find sexual *gratification—much less put on a tie, make small talk and pay for dinner—why would you bother? That this forces young women to compete for men’s attention not just with one another but also with Jesse Jane and Lexi Belle explains a lot of contemporary *evening wear

It's true porn does have damaging effects on the psyche especially at a young age.


^^^ Unsurprisingly, not a single study about porn having "damaging effects on the psyche especially at a young age" can be found above.

It makes sense to all of us that we don’t want children watching pornography. Pornography contains extreme, unrealistic depictions of sex acts that even most adults don’t engage in. Certainly it makes common sense, that showing those images to kids might confuse them at the least, or even warp their ideas about sex, gender and relationships.

These are all very understandable, intuitively appealing common sense ideas about pornography. These same ideas once fueled the 19th Century fight against masturbation, when boys and girls had their genitals caged, or burned with acid, to prevent them from self-pleasure. They resurfaced in the 1980’s when Playboy was removed from convenience store shelves, and even in current arguments in Great Britain, where the government has instituted filtering of the Internet, to protect children from pornography.

Unfortunately, while all these ideas make common sense, none of them hold up in the face of research. I believe that common sense, gut instinct and intuition are incredibly valuable. For years, I’ve recommended the book The Gift of Fear (link is external), which reminds us to listen to our intuitive warnings of danger. As a scientist and empirically-guided clinician, I recognize that intuition and common sense can yield great insights, which must then be measured against objective evidence. The problem is that common sense is “commonly” subject to bias, and can often be warped by our limited experiences, our assumptions, our needs, our subjective values and our cultural norms.

Thus, my comment about fear...

You did the right thing spending two days to look up some counter arguments though, despite it was hit and miss.

For example, these article and papers make more sense as a counter, plus can be a good read:

Unfortunately, the papers are behind paywalls...

Of course I did.

Nah. You made that clear when you made your little snark about having research when the article clearly states common sense over research. You fucked up.

Didn't take me 2 days to look up research. Took about 2 minutes. Articles from 2007 and 2009....cool.

Conclusion: You're not very good at this.

Maybe Methodist Ted’s mom remarrying and having kids with a stepdad Bundy hated had a small effect.

Or Bundy just deciding to kill people for the fuck of it had a small effect. No matter who affected Bundy, someone affected them as well. Eventually Bundy was just a fucking nutjob.

1. Make something up

2. Have no evidence to back it up

3. Claim you're right anyway because of "common sense" or "common knowledge" (aka i'm right because i'm right)

4. ???

5. Profit
