More than that, I'm a "I don't give a fuck about child porn-i-gist". Not my kids. Not my people, not my problem and none of my business. Somewhere, some child is being abused. Somewhere else, someone is starving a dog. Somewhere else, someone is starving themselves. Someone else is bleeding to death from a gunshot. Someone today was just told they have inoperable cancer. Someone else just died of pneumonia. Someone else lost a limb in an accident with a machine.
Every single day, something bad happens to someone. And, every day, someone shows up in the electronic media demanding that we feel sorry for the person they have selected as "Today's Victim", and they have a very long list of reasonable-sounding reasons why we should all agree to do things in a certain way, in order to prevent something bad from happening to someone.
And, every single day it's a different someone. And a different something bad. And a different do something different. Every single day. New person, new thing, new behavior, new law, new rule, new tax, new cause, new charity, new donation, new person in charge of us for a new reason to do something more for someone else.
And, it's ALWAYS for "someone else".
Here's what I think:
Fuck "someone else". They can take care of themselves. I can take care of myself, or, at least I could if I didn't spend so much time and energy having to take care of someone else.
Someone else sits on their ASS, getting served by people like me all day long. Someone else gets paid more than I do, from the money that I make, in order to have the power to tell me what I can and cannot do.
Rather than "protecting" someone else, I dream about killing them. Each. And. Every. Day. And, most particularly, I want to kill the someone else that thinks they have the ability to tell me what to do.
Maybe you might get all worked-up over some social issue or another in order to distract yourself from your own life's problems (and your inability to solve them), but I prefer to pay attention to myself first, those around me second, and make damn sure to understand the difference between "What's my problem", and "None of my business."
Second, I don't give a fuck what "kind" of a society we live in. This isn't some theoretical discussion in some ivory-towered university, this is a real-time description of real-life events, and one of those "events" is the government's ever-increasing ability to do whatever it wants, whenever it wants, with a drooling hoard of cheerleaders celebrating every incremental step towards an authoritarian corporatocracy.

You are also sounding dangerously like a child porn apologist. Obviously we have to take these things on a case by case basis and that is what the courts do.
