How Much Porn Can You Handle? OK, this is a rhetorical question: the only answer is "as much as you got, bring it on bro". While this never say attitude is what fuels a lot of us here it looks like it also fuels the rest of the world. Came across an interesting article that actually attempts to calculate the size of the internet porn world by actual usage, not just dollars spent (click here for the article). In a nutshell, the article claims that as much as 30% of the worlds total web traffic is taken up by us pervs looking at porn. Other statistics in the article show that despite some PUer's having porn stashes in the 20 terabyte range that there's still plenty of content out there waiting to be collected. Admittedly, some of the mind boggling numbers in the article are extrapolations based more on guessing than true data but even if porn only consumes 15% of all web traffic it's a telling sign that despite many governments trying to block porn that it's here to stay. In other words, if you're worried about porn going away from the internet any time soon the sheer size of the industry almost dictates that it's impossible to get rid of despite censorship rules and hardware. In other words, internet porn is sort of like that nasty rash you've got down there ... you just keep telling yourself it's just a temporary problem but it's there to stay unless you're willing to go medieval on it. | |

Considering the bandwidth demands of streaming or downloading videos I wouldn't be surprised if the numbers are even higher. I remember reading last year about the amount of bandwidth Netflix's Instant Watch service uses--and that's just a single site with no porn (I've looked )--and the percentage was well into the double digits in the U.S. at peak usage times.
Hmm, still less than badandy400's numbers.
I'm betting this is because the researchers ended up wasting a lot of time looking at porn rather than actual facts and figures. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I find it interesting that Wittyguy thinks from these figures that porn is here to stay. You have to admit that with the recent laws to restrict file sharing, that it could signal that your balls are being reached for by the powers that be and you could soon be having them squeezed in the vice of censorship that could severely hamper access to the source of pervness. I'm just saying, you just never know what is around the corner and control of Internet access and material isn't outside the next big power grab by some country. Could be ours maybe? You know the religious right - "If I can fuck with your freedoms, you'll be doing it my way." Just never say never. I also found it interesting that the measurements were conducted on tube sites which we all know are sites from Hell. If it ain't grits, it must be a Yankee.

Me I am on the fence on this, ok case in point I own a gun. Ok lots of them, big powerful and dangerous. Whether you are pro-gun or not. The point I am here to make is I am 49 years old and in that 49 year my rights on how I can own, carry and buy guns have changed more then 1 per year, in reality its about 500 new guns laws. Now everyone stil has guns however laws will smack your ass down now if you break these that were not there 50 years ago. Is porn in the midst of being regulated first and terminated later ? God knows every tom dick and harry wants my fucking 40 caliber taken away because it can carry 12 in the clip. Not to go all activist, but to again prove a point. Not one case on anyone that had a concealed license and committed a crime in a school can be found in my state. However they want to take that right away. WHY ? Sure if teachers and professors were shooting up the place that would make sense but not one case on any time of school ground by any teachers or professors. Same point porn users by nature are not baby rapers. I would find it hard to find anyone that looked at legal porn and decided that made them a pedophile. Its total bullshit, however if they decide in their own fuck up reasoning that porn makes people go out and commit sexual crimes that may be were they take a bite outta porn. Thats this Toads Take !

How dangerous are your state's schools that people need to carry concealed weapons, or any weapons for that matter?! Just kidding, but still people tend to not get injured or killed by citizens' personal porn collections (excluding, of course, the inevitable number of accidents caused by auto erotic asphyxiation or whatever else people dream up in their spare time... ). BTW, is it just me or does "take a bite outta porn" sound incredibly filthy? "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

For me, its not the point so far as why do they need to. My point is why are you saying a legal trained person can not. I am one of these people that do not mind laws, but give me a reason why it harmful to have the law. In porn so , ok fine porn is not favorable to all just like guns are not ( why I chose the two as examples). But tell me why Porn in harmful outside of your geo-Christian rules ? 9 outta 10 don't know why porn is bad for society, just why people say Gun are bad. People really do not have a good answer. They just feel its bad cause, well I was brought up that way, or why make thing worse lol, but they never give evidence of why it would be worse. Since 2007 | |

No offense, but a lot of gun rights advocates seem to have an issue with the word "trained"--sort of like how the 2nd Amendment starts with "A well regulated Militia," but everyone is obsessed with "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms" part. And frankly, it's kind of hard to see a pressing need to fully legalize packing heat in schools. Violence in schools, including gun violence, has been going down in the last few decades, despite the hyperbolic attention now given to shootings. And even if shootings were becoming more frequent, I'm not sure how concealed weapons would do much immediate good outside of one-room schools. Don't get me wrong, I hate kids as much as the next person, but I don't think only being able to enter a school unarmed is the second coming of Stalinism. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Thank you, thank you, thank you. My constant question, as an outsider, is always: how can a nation so misinterpret and twist the true meaning of an amendment and apply it to all of its citizens? Of course, now they've dug themselves a hole and can't get out of it. If all my neighbors were armed chances are I'd go looking for a gun myself. Stupid, stupid, stupid .. with so many (undiagnosed and angry) nut cases on the loose how can every Tom, Dick or Harry be allowed to buy something that's there for one reason only. Forget about the "target practice" or "collector" excuses. Self defense wouldn't apply either if no one had a gun to start out with. Yeah, I know, knives kill too .. but not on a grand scale! End of my rant! | |

interesting.... well ... not really. I've scanned looking for the segue from enough porn to the second amendment, and lost interest. In the South, there is a high likelyhood that someone encountered in daily dealings, is armed. Have you wondered why Southerners are sooooooooooo polite? How much is enough porn" I submit that it is a little more than anyone ever gets. unless life also gives you water and sugar, your lemonade is gonna suck. | |

On a lighter note, it seems to me that teachers & administrators are more likely to be fucking their students than shooting them. | |

Well, thank you for the consideration! Ah, gun laws. Many ask why people need guns. The simple answer is that we do not need guns. We want guns. Just like owning a sports car, it is not a need but a want. I wanted my AR15, I only hope I never need it. This is the case for 100% of the law abiding citizens, those who should be allowed to own firearms. The simple fact of the matter is that I have the right to own them, and it would be a very dangerous right to take away completely. By taking a course, and going to the sharriff and asking if I can conceal a handgun I am basically telling them that I general know the laws and intend to follow them. Those that do this are the people that extremely rarely cause any trouble at all and more often than not are the ones who end up helping the cop if they get into a bad situation. Currently the second amendment is being squeezed a bit anyway. They do not allow automatic firearms. "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed." I am not permitted to own the same firearms that police and military use, automatics. Thus by law I am kept at a disadvantage to the "authorities" which goes against the purpose of this amendment. I know this can be a slippery slope because people start to bring Stinger missile launchers and things of that nature into the picture. Do I need an automatic rifle, no. Do I want one, hell yes! Why, because it would be fun to use and it would put me closer to being on par with criminals and authorities, generally. People who truly want them, and any other illegal items, can get them for a price. And those with no regard for the law can also get them. So it would seem that the only people that can not get them are those who I would not mind having them. Go figure. I am a huge fan of a would be criminal stopping and wondering for a moment, "if I attack this guy, does he have the ability to kill me?" For a long time the answer would be, "he looks like an honest man, so he would not have a weapon because of the laws." The preferred answer would be, "well, since it is legal he could very well be packing a Judge under his jacket....not sure if I want to find out." Never enough porn. There are so many niches out there that could be greatly expanded on. There are always new girl coming out. Unfortunately there are more and more of those people who want to impose the religious views on other. Since we are on amendments tonight, I believe the first amendment speaks of a wall between church and state... The amendments were wrote in a very specific order, for a reason. The second amendment is there to protect the first. This order is natural. It is being seen all across the globe even this current day. Weapons to protect speech, rights to assembly, and other rights. And those rights are being used to bring reform to their government. Those amendments simply spell out human nature. "For example, badandy400 has taken it upon himself to become the one man Library of Congress for porn with a collection that surely will be in Guinness Book of World Records some day." ~Toadsith~ PU Interview | |

Guns Don't Kill People, Rappers Do! The problem with the world is stupidity. Not saying there should be capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself? Frank Zappa | |

I'm Canadian and we have a very different view on firearms compared to our neighbors down south. I'm not sure if it's because we have a British way of looking at fireamrs. We have their political system and we lived under their ruling for a long time so that has to have something to do with it. Regardless of why we do. It's the general view of most Canadians that if you don't need it for hunting then you don't need a gun. This is especially true of all handguns since they are usueless at hunting prey. That is unless you hunt humans. In which case they are great for getting close to your prey because they are easy to conceal so your prey will never know how close the danger is until it's too late. I'm sorry to be blunt but just how many dead children do Americans need to have before they think that having guns in the hands of the general population is dangerous? There has be a magical number that will tell the majority of them that loving guns is unhealthy. Not for everyone but a percentage of that population will use their guns to kill innocent people and that's a sad fact. If Americans really want to use guns then make them only available in gun clubs. This way they can go let off some steam by shooting their hearts out in a controlled environemnt and the guns will not be in the household. Long live the Brown Coats. | |

Pat, In Canada and in England, who is it that uses guns other than the police and army and they kill people? That's correct - the crooks. So gun control doesn't work with crooks does it? Here we have the right to kill the crooks on our doorstep. FYI - I do not own a gun - they are dangerous and I might be tempted to take my own life if I had one.

Meh, could be Messmer but my point being that criminals get guns without trouble. You could blame it on the US Constitution's Right to Bear Arms clause, but I'll bet it's just Russian mobsters and gunrunners. If it ain't grits, it must be a Yankee.

You are not reading your second amendment carefully enough. Are you in the Militia, jberry? I am willing to bet that those who amended the Constitution never contemplated the present day interpretation of "the right to bear arms." As to your Russians, just like Pat, I too think you are pulling my leg. Ask the Mexican drug cartels and the numerous relatives of those who were killed by their weapons who supplied them with their pistols and semi-automatics. This is written in a spirit of good will for the sake of argument and is not meant to provoke a flame war or members of a friendly neighbor to the south of us! | |

No flame taken Messmer - The US does not make all the guns, so the source of illegal weapons is up for debate, which really I have no serious desire to do. As far as pulling your leg, if you've read many of my posts, I do so with intended intent. No offense intended though, but I like to think that my lightness evokes an occasional smile and with that thought I think I've made the world a better place. In my own personal life, as I said, I don't own a gun or possess one, legal or illegal. I have fired both rifles, shotguns and hand guns and all things considered I didn't do too badly at hitting what I aimed at. The only life I've taken are birds and squirrels and at no point (not even in the military) did I ever square up a human target. As far as guns in the wrong hands and how they got there, I believe in the power of free will and responsibility. Now if all these crooks want to thin their own herd, more power to them. If they want to take an innocent life, then damn them to Hell. As an atheist that rings hollow. I really have no response to this dilemma. I certainly don't believe that by legislating no guns that that will solve the problem. If people want to kill other people they will get their hands on something that will do the job, be it a gun, a knife, a bow/arrow, a fertilizer bomb - take your pick, it's what people have used to exert their will over others. Just because you make it difficult to obtain through legislation doesn't mean it won't happen. Either stay away from guns, gun toting people, and places where they hang or get one just so you can pop back at them. At any rate, just be responsible for your actions. Oh, one final aside. I do like the smell of gunsmoke and fireworks. Go figure. If it ain't grits, it must be a Yankee. If you're going to lay her head over the pool table and fuck her throat, get your fucking hand off her throat! | |

Either way, if shots are fired, there will be hell to pay!

I think the gun issue why controversial is clear we view it as a right not an option here in the USA. In Cananda in the 70's and 80's especially, only Biker gangs like the Hells Angels had guns and terrorized ordinary people. Cops could do nothing and obviously the average citizen could not. Where I live, 90% of this state carries guns. And homebreak in's are non-existent. As a crook I would pick a state or country where I could walk in and take your cash with no struggle. Here once in awhile some dumb ass breaks in a home and is in the morgue the next day! CT Since 2007 | |
