Suppression of anything becomes a self perpetuating bureaucracy. Remember The Volstead Act, the War on Drugs, the demonization (and subsequent taxation thereof) of the “Evile & Wicked Weed” and the “Callous Corporations” in the tobacco industry, ad nauseam.

All are examples of how what appeared at first glance to be something we should let the Goobers in Gooberment Agencies deal with regardless of no Constitutional authority for those Goobers, or that Gooberment Agency.

Pointing out that the young are known to be inclined towards sex, and that since time immemorial, parents have had to keep an eye on their children, much less that parents are the ones charged by both God and the Constitution with raising their children - all are considered by some as secret signs of support for kiddie porn.

The ultimate offense to such people seems to be the vilest of observations, that parents and churches will be very ineffective in creating moral and self regulating behavior in comparison to laws/government. Family and church seem to be seen, by those posters, as have little efficacy in the creation of moral and self-regulating citizens of the Republic.

I have tried to explain my observations on a phenomenon that may be inexplicable. It's surely worth what you paid for it. ;-)

There is a clique here on FR who seem to believe that the way to make Americans more virtuous is to pass more laws. I have a hunch they’ll be showing up here shortly.
