Nanny State here we come!

Great news for all you conservative people out there: depiction of violent porn is banned!
While I type this I'm in a bit of a red-mist rage so I'm likely to rant. Here's the brief story...

A woman called Liz Longhurst had her 31 year old daughter killed by a man called Graham Coutts. He liked his strangulation porn apparently.
So now, thanks to a 3 year long campaign by Liz Longhurst and the "evidence" that "linked" her daughters killer to violent porn images, it's banned.

Obviously, if the stuff is real ban it. It's wrong, plain and simple.
But also in the ban is staged stuff: consenting adults acting out roles for the benefit of the camera is now illegal, and if I watch it I could find myself in prison for three years.

My civil liberties have just been stomped on a bit more.
If I choose to look at staged images of rape scenes or masochism, who cares? It doesn't make me want to go out and do it in real life, or kill someone.
By all means question my taste in entertainment, but don't brand me a potential killer.

Graham Coutts was clearly a bit unstable in the first place to murder someone. What he did in his spare time shouldn't have a knock on effect to all the innocent people out there that enjoy the same pass time.

If I killed someone with my pen, and in court evidence was brought forward about my fanatical obsession with pens, would they be banned? Would my mother going on a 3 year campaign about the dangers of pens and my brutal slaying of an innocent person using such an item be enough to get them outlawed?
Probably not, because it'd be obsurd. Yet viewing acted violent porn is about to be illegal because of the very same circumstances.

So what next?
Watching consenting adults in violent sex acts is going to be illegal.
What about watching films featuring murders? Gun crime? Car chases? Drug using?
All these things happen all the time every day. They feature in films all the time, and have done for decades. They're all illegal in real life yet portrayed by actors for entertainment.
Because gun crime takes place in real life, are we going to see stories about such events in film being outlawed? Are old episodes of Piorot going to be burned because some of them feature actors being murdered so that the mustacheod detective can solve the crime?

It's pathetic.
