    Sounds like something I’ve read before. The article was about websites that were hosting pictures of models. The FCC made a provision that all websites must prove that the model was over 18 especially if they were in swim suits. Needless to say that it scared some people into getting rid of their photos since they didn’t want the FCC crashing down on them. The FCC, what a joke.

    B.T.W. don’t they jail those pervs for having those photos?

    I am sure he has point — well maybe I like to think he has a point, but I do admire him for going where “No Cartoonist Has Gone Before!”

    Oh it will be balanced out eventually. Let God be the judge.

    As is true of everything tearing our society apart today, all of this sue-happy garbage began in the 1960s.

    It’s been said at least a thousand times before, and no one outside the churches ever listens:

    In the early 1960s, totally out of the blue and ignoring EVERY previous legal precedent, SCOTUS (aka the Supreme Court) arbitrarily discarded America’s judeo-christian heritage.

    The people in schools just becoming young men and women when this occurred then immediately became the first Godless generation of Americans.

    Within a very short time they began to riot over anything and everything which predated their existance.

    They protested mindlessly, they rebelled pointlessly, they did drugs and committed violence (like Prez Osama’s old friend Bill Ahers, blowing up both people and buildings) and yes they ALSO started suing everyone and everything, turning the same Courts which had declared war on God into total chaos, where nothing written down on paper had any real meaning because everyone pretended words themselves had no meaning, exactly as they deserved when they tossed out the word of God.

    The culture has gone downhill ever since. All these shootings we see today–school shootings, drive-by shootings, mall shootings, workplace shootings, post office shootings, on and on and on–NONE of that ever occurred in American society prior to the forced abondonment of Christianity by Girl Government.

    Point being: stop WHINING. All of this asinine and insane behavior is laid out for you in the Bible, clear as a bell. It is what cultures ALWAYS do when they turn away from God.

    You all hate God and “religion” so much, you should be HAPPY aboout what the above cartoon depicts. It’s what you all WANTED, right? Since you’re all so powerfully confident that Christianity was worse than EVERYTHING which preceeded it–worse than anything else imaginable–as you make clear every time you post your views on the subject…

    How simple the world is for Scott! If only we’d had school prayer, nothing bad would have happened for the last fifty years.

    • I know, right!? No evil has EVER been committed in the name of the Bible.

    It is sad to see the results of a mind ruled by superstitious nonsense.

    Wow, scott, that’s some seriously twisted logic.

    a) The Supreme Court discarded our judeo-christian heritage? How does one do that, exactly? Hw does a court case discard anybody’s heritage? And you don’t even say which one it was. But it must have been the early 1960s since one single court case suddenly turned a generation into protesting heathens who didn’t respect their elders, eh?

    b) Per capita, this country was actually far more litigious in the early 1800s than it is now. True. There were more court cases per capita than there are now.

    c) President Osama? Really? Whatever happened to “my President, right or wrong” that the Right was so fond of during Bush’s tenure? That suddenly flew out the window when Obama became prez, eh?

    If you ask me, the problem with this country is lack of respect or compassion for your fellow man. Nothing to do with religion (although that respect and compassion is always paid at least lip service in most religions). And you, my dear scott, exemplify this lack of respect AND compassion in spades.

    Say ‘flag’ to right-wing Christianist terrorist trolls.

    Everybody needs to flag everything scottfreitas posts, including the words ‘and’ and ‘the.’

    Only you can prevent Christianist terror.

    PLease! Don’t make every cartoon a discussion of this bufoon!

    Have you people no self control. It’s obvious that this person will say anything to turn the attention on itself.

    He’s wrong, NO $417 Sherlock! Of course he’s wrong.

    Do you go down the sidewalk, pick up and smell each peice of dog poop and comment on its flavor? Then why do it here?

    Ted,

    You did an outstanding job of laying out the “Law of Unintended Consequences”

    This is like the SCOTUS rulings on Corporations. But its also like the RICO statutes. Enacted for one purpose and then used for a totally different one.

    But I guess I have to come down on the Ayn Rand side of this one. Yeah, ok so the answer is “I’m not buying your product if you aren’t giving a living wage to your employees!”

    If that means I can only afford a lower quantity of products, that’s great too! Think of how much better the world would be if I didn’t eventually have to throw away all the bleeep I own.

    Could we please, please stop talking about our “Judeo-Christian heritage”? It’s an insult to the Jews.

    Can we also please retire the term “G.O.P.”? Those guys don’t deserve a pet nickname that has nothing to do with present realities, certainly at least as long as their opponents don’t get the same treatment. I know it saves space in newspaper headlines, but so what?

    School prayer? Which God to pray to? Which prayer? OK to use prayer rugs? If disagreements, beheadings OK? Heresy trials start up again? Hell for all except Baptists? Yeah, school prayer …right………..
