pr0n @ Carnegie Mellon

Today, a friend from high school pointed out a story (and video clip on the same page) he'd seen about CMU showing porn in the University Center (aka the UC, our student union-type place). The UC has an auditorium that, aside from its usual academic purposes, shows movies several nights a week. On occasion, usually once a semester, the Sunday night movie is "TBA".

During a TBA, the moviegoers start by removing their clothes and making demeaning comments about others' genitalia. The pr0n usually gets everyone so excited that, within minutes, people are going all caveman, beating others unconscious with clubs to more easily take advantage of them. Just in case the massive orgy isn't enough to ensure the onset of an STD plague, we bring bottles of germ-infested spooge to squirt on each other!!!1!oneone!

Seriously, people, what's the big fucking deal? If I won't object when some Michael Moore propaganda film is shown, you should hold your tongue about some people getting naked[1] and laid[2] on a big ol' movie screen[3]. Capiche?

They whined and whined about how it was paid for with student money, and conveniently neglected to mention that by charging $1 admission, they made several hundred in profit, which resulted in more money for non-porn student activities. Also they showed what appeared to be about 1000 students eager to watch the porn, yet decided to only interview people who were against it. News reporters can feltch me.

Hey, AC. Why are you so scared to post under a real account? Is it because you don't want people to associate you with the judgemental, closed-minded, fundie fest that is bravehearts.net?

Also, I apologize for deleting your previous comment. I assumed it was comment spam until a friend, who actually followed the unknown link (brave, indeed!), mentioned otherwise.
