Does that mean ALL Coen Brothers films should be consider dangerous and now be criminalized for being owned? If so my wife has several films.

What about some of these "REALITY TV" Shows that have to be scripted i.e. The Real Housewives Temptation island.

This is about US as citizens of this country and world wanting to get to the heat of a lot of these problems which are trying to control and have power over others.

Most people who buy these "Rape Porn" movies know they are fantasies and fake. YES you have some who believe it is real. BUT just because some can't tell the difference between fake and reality doesn't mean EVERYONE in the world can't tell the difference.
