Retard Nannies From AFA: Ban Porn at Military Bases

Its not just liberals that have been afflicted with Nanny State Brainrot.
First off, this Morality Police crap pisses me off, its the conservative wing of the Nanny State.   If I'm gonna rip on liberal Nanny Statism, I have to be consistent and rip on conservatives that get banhappy too.  And its not that I'm being obligatory to cover my ass, I truly do think this whining for a ban from the AFA is fucking stupid.

Beyond that, they show the same sort of obnoxious paternal authoritarianism that the lefty Nannies do.  The AFA obviously knows how to live a soldier's life better than said soldier whos spent the past year or more in the fucking desert getting shot at.  Pisses me off, I don't like being told what to do by the Nanny Staters, but there's something about trying to Nanny a person who's putting their ass on the line for you.

With all that said, this isn't the first time this sort of story has come up, and it continues to be as retarded as it was last time.  Do these people not realize that nearly every significant military encampment has been followed by a large group of prostitutes? STD's have been a problem for many military forces throughout history.

In fact, the prostitution and sexual debauchery between GIs and British girls was so bad in Britain during WWII, the British government held a series of top level secret meetings they were so worried that it was going to damage the Alliance! 

From the linked article,

American troops wrote home in such colourful terms about being propositioned by prostitutes and “good-time” girls in the West End of London that the US military demanded action be taken to curb the “debauchery”. So bad was the West End considered to be that US troops who caught venereal disease became known as “Piccadilly commandos”.

Remember what I said about STDs being a serious problem in war?  You know there's a big problem when they were making up names for GIs that got STDs in WWII.

Admiral Sir Edward Evans, of the London Civil Defence regional headquarters, described the scenes at Leicester Square in a letter in 1943 to Air Vice- Marshal Sir Philip Game, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner. “Leicester Square at night is the resort of the worst type of women and girls consorting with men of the British and American Forces, in which the latter seem to predominate,” he said. “Of course the American soldiers are encouraged by these young sluts, many of whom should be serving in the Forces. At night the Square is apparently given over to a vicious debauchery.”

You can do an awful lot of things, you aren't gonna rewire the human sex drive, deal with it.

I don't get the feeling that there is a large prostitution problem in our current campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan, which is a really unique thing, my guess is that a combination of disciplined, professional forces and readily accessible porn is probably a major reason for that. 

Let's be honest, short of neutering, you have a choice, either let them have their porn, or they'll seek out prostitutes.  I'd rather they flog the bishop and make some magazine pages stick together than make it burn when they take a piss.  And really, do you wanna pay for a lifetime supply of Valtrex through the VA because the AFA insisted that the soldiers not be burdened with the liberty to look at what they want in a magazine.
