I am not wrong. More people drank before prohibition than during prohibition because of the simple fact that it was illegal. Your argument is the same argument that Oregon just used to decriminalize all drugs; they believe it will/would reduce drug use. Well, has decriminalizing drugs helped in reducing drug rates in Oregon? Fuck no they haven’t; its exacerbated the issue (by design). Take marijuana for example - less people used that substance when it was illegal then when it was legal.
Furthermore, the argument that “well people will find a way to find porn on the black market if it was illegal” is equal to the “if abortions are illegal than abortion rates will not reduce, only the method of abortion” or “if murder was illegal than people would just kill illegally.” So since people will find a way to break the law we should just not have laws? I disagree
Again, though, I am not against porn being legal. I think its degenerate and I am a million miles above that these days; however, I am completely for placing regulations on pornography such as mandatory subscriptions in order to keep kids from readily viewing pornography. Also any company that distributes pornography must comply to some form of entity that tracks the participants (verifies ages, consent, etc). More importantly, the great awakening will bring folks closer to God and hopefully make people want to drop pornography addiction all together for it is a detriment to our society.
