Identifying someone as an anarchist isn’t name calling. Crying foul when none has happened is telling, however.

You don’t think there should be laws governing age restricted access to adult materials. You think it should be left entirely to citizens. Families, in particular.

While I agree it is a parents’ responsibility to control what enters the home, the internet doesn’t enter the home, we enter the internet marketplace and the marketplace has government mandated controls. These controls are age restricted access to adult materials.

If you sincerely believe the government should not or cannot restrict access to adult materials, then you should also logically believe that the government should not restrict access to tobacco, alcohol, or other drugs. To believe in such is to believe in the rule of anarchy, the absence of laws.

Commonsense: Being called an Anarchist isn’t necessarily a pejorative ..hardly name calling.
Think: The use of child safety seats . Yes. Government intrusion. But we allow this law, because it’s common sense. Now use this logic again, parents try to protect their children from myriad dangers . And sometimes laws and common sense work. Reread child safety seats.

Mr. Worrel,

If you have to revert to name-calling, instead of displaying your ability to state a logical rationale for your beliefs, it’s definitely a sign of your very limited mental capacity.

Perhaps it’s best to end this discussion before you start calling me inappropriate names that “Tallahassee Reports” rightfully does not allow on this platform.

Goodbye.

So, you’re just an anarchist. Got it.

Mr. Worrel,

YOUR ARE RIGHT! It IS “the parents’ responsibility to keep children from purchasing tobacco, vapes, THC products, oh yeah, and adult materials at X-Mart.” Along with any other products, activities or exposure to various things that can physically hurt them (guns) or hanging around with gangs (MS-13) or questionable websites (sexual predators).

If you’re a parent and chose to bring kids into our society, why would you expect some government to protect YOUR children from the evils of modern society? Do you think they could do a better job than you? Do our governments love and care about YOUR children as much or more than you do?

Perhaps you may think that because you pay taxes the government should protect YOUR kids for you. Best of luck with that thinking. I pray for the safety of your kids while you sit back and wait for the government to protect them.

Common, you’re wrong. Otherwise, it would solely be the parents’ responsibility to keep children from purchasing tobacco, vapes, THC products, oh yeah, and adult materials at X-Mart. We have an embargo in place against Cuba. We don’t allow certain items to be freely imported, or exported, into or out of our country. You can’t rent a car until you’re 25. The government regulates commerce in a multitude of ways.

Age restricting and forcing businesses to enforce age restrictions is established by legal precedent.

I’m not sure why you are so intent on making adult materials easily available to children…

It’s the parent’s responsibility to keep their kids away from porn sites and age inappropriate material, not the job of any government be it federal, state or local.

“the lawsuit contends that the law violates due-process rights” …………………….. HOW? You have to Prove your Age to buy Cigarettes, Beer, a Porn Magazine and even Spray Paint, why should it be different to Log On to Porn Sites?
