You are rather persistent in your inane logic. A reasonable person would know what I meant. You are not reasonable. I reposted the qoute from the Declaration in #139 for a reason. It zoomed right over your head.

the Comics Code (which destroyed the comic book industry in the 50's) came from paternalistic busybodies on the right.

Actually, Dr. Wertham, whose book Seduction of the Innocent led to the Comics Code Authority, was very liberal.

Keep the pings coming. It may be sporadic, but I'll be around.
