Something has to be done about alert stalking. redqueen Dec 2013 #11
How might we identify/police such stalking? Orrex Dec 2013 #12

one section at a time, break it down more. seabeyond Dec 2013 #64
That's exactly it. "Fictional" rape porn, at best, is meant to imitate the real thing, to the extent nomorenomore08 Dec 2013 #112

I don't understand anything of what you posted there Orrex Dec 2013 #131
Honestly I don't see the "war movie" analogy. We're not talking about "Irreversible" or nomorenomore08 Dec 2013 #108
Well, we can't dismiss fiction just because it's realistic, either Orrex Dec 2013 #126
I don't advocate "controlling" anything except *real* videos of rape and torture. nomorenomore08 Dec 2013 #128
If it might be the real thing then it should be reported Orrex Dec 2013 #134
You're not missing anything. That's exactly how I feel as well. nomorenomore08 Dec 2013 #138
Glad we sorted that out. Orrex Dec 2013 #141

Another righteous crusader dictating how and why people think and feel. Terrific. Orrex Dec 2013 #217
Do you somehow miss the significance of marketing the porn as REAL RAPE? redqueen Dec 2013 #219
In other words, you also lack the capacity to distinguish fiction from fact. Orrex Dec 2013 #221
You blithely instruct people to report rapes that might be real, yet you sit there and tell me redqueen Dec 2013 #222
She's also not the only one who's received this kind of treatment, for similar reasons. Just saying. nomorenomore08 Dec 2013 #102
