Liberty U Professor Judith Reisman Wants Pornography Outlawed

...Liberty Counsel is so enamored with Reisman that she also serves at a visiting professor of law at Liberty University, despite the fact that she received her Ph.D in Communications.

In Reisman's view, everything can be traced back to the research and findings of Alfred Kinsey and she was recently featured on CSPAN's BookTV where she discussed her book "Sexual Sabotage: How One Mad Scientist Unleashed a Plague of Corruption and Contagion on America."

During the discussion, Reisman was asked if pornography ought to be outlawed, to which she responded with an enthusiastic "yes," saying there is absolutely no question that pornography has "had a huge impact on child sexual abuse":

In fact, some radical feminists like Andrea Dworkin have also taken a POV for making all porn illegal; Dworkin testified before Atty. Gen. Meese's porn commission in '86 during the Reagan admin.

And here's Reisman on The Thom Hartmann Program in 2010 where Thom challenges Reisman's outrageous claims about elementary school sex education:

look at it all and determine what is and what isn't porn. Exactly otherwise how would they know for sure? Usually good intentions, but lots of Freudian repression in these types.

"No sex before marriage" meant no opposite sex sex. One reason why hunting lodges and cabins and community baths in sleazy areas were popular.

Do they REALLY think that this kind of stuff matters at all to normal people?
