Other way around:

Sites that COMPLY with laws and exit the state leave behind sites that do not comply.

The sites you CAN reach in Texas are more likely to have trafficking victims and underage participants – because those sites clearly don’t give a hoot about laws.

Texas drove away the wrong sites!

Yes. They want “small government” when the law affects them, but “law and order” when it punishes someone else who annoys them.

It’s childishness we’ve come to be accustomed to, thanks to lead-brained 70-year-olds who are falling into legit cognitive decline… but still have the numbers to be a formidable opponent at the polls on election day.

Also, their dicks don’t work anymore without a blue pill, so they may as well take away the consensual naked fun of Gen X, Millennial, and Gen Z (18+) people right?

What’s worse: Reputable sites that comply with U.S. laws (such as participants being 18+ and filming of their own free will) are effectively forced out, while questionable site carry on.

The likelyhood of seeing abuse victims or underage in Texas goes up, not down.

If they truly cared about protecting minors, they’d see the flaw in their law and rectify it. Of course, we all know (not through cynicism but cold repeated behavior) that political conservatives do not care about minors and care far more about punishing consenting adults.

This law is a step toward the latter.

At this point, it’s just a temper tantrum.

Democrats/scientists/experts/youth are the “annoying older brother” and anything they want is “stupid.”

Lead poisoning (gasoline) really ruined a generation.

“This is your Performa! How many megs of RAM, Carmine?”

The principal message at the top sets back acceptance for my trans friend.

By shooting for a distant objective that does not resonate with 90+ percent of people, we run the risk of arming hatefilled right-wing bigots. They can wave this around as “proof” that transgendered and non-binary people deserve entirely no rights.

Can’t we shoot for a “You do you, and I’ll do me” world where most of us cis people can enjoy our identity in peace – while extending the same respect to transgendered and non-binary friends who also want to just live life in peace?

Crusading against all gender norma and against all gendered language is not a sustainable game plan here.

I feel like Aaron Swartz exiting and later dying played a role. There was no longer his voice to check bad business behavior.

Don’t forget the “Jesus fish” on their logo.

I’m from out west, so it was a very foreign concept for me when I visited my sister in Arkansas and saw a lot of “Christian Family Auto” type places with Jesus swag trying to win over business.
