If you happen to’ve been watching the Senate Judiciary Committee’s hearings on Supreme Courtroom nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, you’ve seen an entire lot of posturing. Together with that, you’ve seen plenty of dialogue about morals. Jackson got here beneath partisan hearth for her work on the U.S. Sentencing Fee. Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz mentioned prison penalties, and why we don’t throw the e-book at anybody who commits such crimes! They need to all be locked away! I need to say upfront that youngster pornography is a horror, and Congress wants to take a look at higher methods to deal with the scenario.
However for all the priority Republicans are exhibiting now, I’m caught right here questioning what the hell these persons are occurring about whereas youngster abuse and pornography infects their very own celebration, and so they do and say completely nothing. I believe we have now to return and have a look at a little bit of historical past to speak about this.
