This is the most offensive, replusive, dehumanizing, mysoginistic, depraved, ugly thing I've seen in months. I want someone to stand up and say "This shit should be illegal."
Well, I am planning to write to the Better Business Bureau and the Nevada Chamber of Commerce.
Of course! I was just stating the obvious: that this is a symptom, not the disease. No reason NOT to treat it-- I'm all for counter-measures against this very business as well...the harsher, the better.
What surprises me is not the demand-- there's enough content like this in prongraphy, books, films for me to believe it. What horrifies me is that enough people were willing to take the step to allow this to become a functioning business at all. The step between playing a video game about this and actually doing it... the level of cruelty involved in that step is what horrifies me.
Absolutely-- but I meant demand for this very (I'm disgusted to write it down) "service", this special sort of business in real life. Porn is one thing-- and ugly enough at that, if you really look at it--, but as you indicate, perverts overcoming all values of human society and equality make me wonder about how widespread these values are in fact...
