In defense of Jurgen, he was making a counterpoint.  He is not really
suggesting censorship.  You should really follow the thread for a
while or at least read the posts more closely before jumping in in the middle
of the debate with something so irrelevant (and potentially inflammatory).

BTW, between you and me, I don't consider porn and violence as a normal
part of everyday life ;-).  At least not mine.

Just letting you know.
