the definition of porn is any media revolving around erotica to incite sexual excitement to viewers. There is a difference between having sex to have a kid, and filming sexual intercourse, to make money, off of other people getting off to you or getting sexual excited about it. agree with me or not there is a plain difference there. un-filmed porn which much rather be audio only stuff, or photographic porn, etc.

The number of airplane hijackings was already in decline during the 90s and processes were already improving at airports around the world. Remembering that the TSA is a purely US production and doesn't represent the world, where most incidents happened. The world's airports have improved their processes and it's improved security a fair bit.

But ultimately the evidence is there, the TSA fails almost every test they're checked against by their own organisation. They're probably the least effective security force in the world, other than to frustrate people, they're good at that.

$8bn a year for an organisation who let through banned materials 70% of the time... https://www.forbes.com/sites/ellistalton/2019/01/28/is-the-tsa-really-necessary/

i agree. not directly pertaining to this certain post, but porn in general the world would be better off with, Pornography addiction might not kill you like other drugs do. but it is addicting. it's not something to be proud of that you would spend time scrolling and watching videos of porn. It just ruins your mind, especially if you're a younger teen. Porn addiction can become just a cycle of uncontrollable of just gratification just for you to what? make yourself feel better by watching pixels on the screen. that's not self-love, not at all.

If anyone out there is going through pornography addiction i encourage to realize how damaging it can be, it's not something good. I don't care how many downvotes i get, in fact if you think that being addicted to porn or porn is good go ahead and downvote me, i dare you.

My concern with religion is never when someone has unverified beliefs, it is always in how they compartmentalize those beliefs from their Real Life responsibilities.

Are you a medical professional? Okay, let’s make sure you distinctly separate your hobby of talking to magical, invisible friends from how you treat my health.

Are you a politician? Okay, let’s make sure how you think about policy and governance is not a product of your subjective belief systems, but of how a secular democratic society runs to represent and protect the widest spectrum of citizens - not just those who share your specific dogma.

Are you a goddamn police chief fighting cartels? Okay, perhaps we don’t fight crime with spiritual horror movie themes and think about objective reality instead.

Pray to or believe in whatever you’d like as long as it is carefully and surgically separate from how you do your job, affect those around you, etc.

This doesn't seem like a good excuse considering that there are devices that can sniff out C4, as it has a very distinct scent. There is literally no reason to believe that peanut butter is C4. If they actually cared about safety they would just invest in tools that identified actual threats instead of just making life harder for people traveling.
