I can copy the thread and nuke the predecessor messages in the copy. The question remains, do I leave the originals here afterward? And another question: Geth's already made up his mind, and has made it clear that nothing's going to change it. Is it even worth discussing any further?
EDIT:
And why am I not surprised it was a Republican senator who turned this into an issue? I have to agree with one of the commentators I read -- if this were about boys, no one would have blinked. And if the poster hadn't triggered a good ol' Texas boy looking for an issue to make a name with, it would have been seen as a critique on Islam.
EDIT:
Quote:Some Youtube clips of the horror:From the way you've been ranting, I was expecting clothes flying, nudity and simulated sex acts. That was... I don't want to say "tame" but compared to the images your hysterical comments brought to my mind, it was. You're certainly entitled to your opinion, Geth, but if that counts as "child pornography" to you, why aren't you out protesting the way pre-teen gymnasts display and contort their bodies?
