This is the story I was referring to, but I have been unable to find an actual written law that the court based this off of. Maybe this is a new law that has just now been decided and has not yet been wrote up.

My only idea why this is not allowed is that the woman would have the child alone, without a husband...and that would be hard for the kid to not have a daddy there in the house. The courts cannot void the marriage, however...so the only option for a baby in this instance is to go to the sperm bank or adopt.
I dunno...what do you think? Werd!

I could go online, chat, and get a girl to write to.
If you want less bums, you need a better welfare safety net.
could you also please cite these amazing luxery prisons please?
I don't think murders get put in prisons with all that,
In fact IIRC, america has pretty bad prison conditions.

Could you please Cite these?

I agree, it's a waste of money to have so many people locked up and executed.

Sorry, Gabriel, but you are wrong. Porn does not "channel" sexual desire...it fuels it. Looking at porn will only INCREASE this guy's sexual drive. He won't be satisified with "paper" for very long.

I remember waaaaaaay back when I was just out of high school. A lady that I worked with at the local McDonald's was moaning about the fact that her husband had gotten the films he ordered in the mail today. Then she said "I know what that means for me when I get home".

She wasn't talking about him being asleep and resting peacefully because the porn movies had "satisfied" his sexual desire.....quite the opposite. He was going to be "cranked up and ready to go" when she got home!

Also, an adult theater in Chattanooga, TN was just closed permanently by the mayor because of all the open acts of sexual activity taking place inside the theater during the movie (both solo and with partners). It wasn't enough for the patrons to just see sexual acts...seeing them led to an increased desire to DO them...right then and there.

Porn does NOT "rehabilitate".

If you're saying criminals need rehabilitation, but do not deserve pornography while they are in prison, I'm with you!

I think it's stupid to put most prisoners in prison just to rot.

Rehabilitation is extremely important, in most cases, but isn't always possible.

Bottom line? No prisoners DESERVE to have pornography during their imprisonment.
Sorry but you understood me the first time.
They need porn to be rehabilitatied and put the sexual desires on people but at paper.
[/QUOTE]Gab...um..are you saying that guys (and women) who read pornography don't act on their sexual urges at all? Err.. that would be a revolutionary concept to the sex offenders out there, I'm sure!

Prisoners through due process have "lost" their rights afforded citizens. Whether some people should be in prison or not is a different topic. But, beyond the freedom from cruel and unusual punishment, and the right to BASIC human needs, I don't think that prisoners deserve anything.
Thanks NS. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I agree 110% percent.
[/QUOTE]Is sex a basic human need then?
It’s a very powerful drive in all of us,
And therefore since it seems to be a basic human need and drive, why should we deny him the right to do something about it as far as he can in his situation?
[/QUOTE]that's what conjugal visits are for, or the skinny little guy who can't protect himself

[/QUOTE]No law is needed. Warden's fiat rules unless it violates the constitution. The Court obviously feels there is no right to procreate from behind bars. I agree completely. Same with conjugal visits (which are the same thing functionally as mailing sperm) - warden's fiat rules. YOu are a good inmate, he may let you, unless he's having a bad day or fought with his wife last night, etc.
