Hear, hear, David! I couldn't have said it better. I'd only add that, although one may choose to consume or reject "adult entertainement" (I hate that expression), why should society at large have to tolerate it being shoved in everyone's face. Keep it in the closet, close the door. Leave others out of it if they don't ask you to let them in. So ya want to look at dirty pictures? do it in private. Don't like Tom's censorship?
