Porn In Libraries

The type of girl you will start imagining you are seeing in libraries if you view too much porn there.
This story is as surprising as it is delightful. Well, if you live in Sacramento, that is. Doesn't make a blind bit of difference to me.
For all the pontificating that those opposed to this decision have indulged in, I think several very key and obvious points have been missed here. Which isn't a great surprise - anti-porn campaigners aren't known for their thoughtfulness of comment.
For a start, it's a library. Yes, you might well be able to look at porn in a library. But it's not as if you're going to be able to actually, y'know, 'act' on said porn, is it? Unless they're going to start renting out private rooms or something.
It's all very well saying that the computer screens are going to be offering discreet, recessed screens, but I don't know about you - I don't want to look at porn in public! Especially not in a bloody library of all places.
The reactions to this have been hilarious though, with all manner of campaigners seeming to believe that the local libraries are going to be flooded with sex offenders. Oh yeah, that makes sense. All of a sudden, the world's paedophiles are going to be flocking to the library. Because that type of horrific content isn't going to be blocked at all, is it? And they won't get caught at all, will they? Do these people actually HEAR what they're saying?
By the way, you know what the most relevant site to view in a library is? Bookworm Bitches. You know it makes sense.
