GOP platform includes gay conversion therapy and porn
The Republican platform talks about a wall, about gay conversion therapy, and about pornography as a health crisis. Nothing about guns, however, other than to stop gun control measures.
As expected, it’s packed with a ton of garbage (support for gay “conversion therapy,” and refusal to acknowledge the legitimacy of same-sex marriage, just to name some of it), and it’s missing some stuff that should be in there (hello? gun violence anyone?). But it did have one agenda item that snuck in under the radar without much debate: porn. According to the RNC, internet porn is the latest health crisis requiring prompt government attention. Oh right. I must have been momentarily distracted by AIDS statistics and mass shootings to remember how web porn should be our top priority.

The porn part reads:
“Pornography, with his harmful effects, especially on children, has become a public health crisis that is destroying the life of millions. We encourage states to continue to fight this public menace and pledge our commitment to children’s safety and well being,” the amendment stated.
Good that they have their priorities straight. Thank goodness part platforms have little to do wth what actually happens.
