You Know It When You See It

The old joke about pornography, you can't describe it, but you know it when you see it.
Evidently the Christian anti-porn groups and the Pentagon aren't seeing the same thing when they look at porn.
USA Today reports that anti-porn groups are writing letters because the Pentagon is selling porn in its stores.
A ten year old law prohibits sales of sexually explicit material on military bases.
The Pentagon's Resale Activities Board of Review looked into Penthouse and several Playboy publications and determined that "based solely on the totality of each magazine's content, they were not sexually explicit."
However, the board did decide to bar the sale of several videos including Girls Night In and Wet.
The Military Honor and Decency Act of 1996 bars stores on military bases from selling "sexually explicit material." It defines that as film or printed matter "the dominant theme of which depicts or describes nudity" or sexual activities "in a lascivious way."
For a magazine to be found lewd and lascivious, a certain percentage of the content would have to fall under that category.

They can die for this country but our troops shouldn't be allowed to buy Playboy at miiltary stores?  Shouldn't they be able to see what every black guy in LA has already seen?

In the picture immediately below, is Chase looking at Deisel or up at this picture, which I'm sure he thinks of as lunch?

meanwhile, they order you to go get your head blown off...

at least you should be able to rub one out before going off to get killed. I mean, those Iraqi's are nothing special to look at.
