Pornography
Sir,—[The Royal Commission on Social Policy received many submissions on the possible control of pornography. |l used the word ‘“possible” adyisedly! because any suggestion of a restraint on a multi-bjllion-dollar “business,” world-wide, would be most strenuously opposed. After all, in I certain circumstances, liquor; [and tobacco could be classed as pornographic.’ But restraints?! No way! Big profits and large [lumps lof tax cash would not stand for such an encroachment ;on civil liberties. Funny that,) is it not? “Civ 1 liberties” always appear to be on the side of the! perpetrator, never the victim.—Yours, etc., j L. A. H. BOGREN. March 17,) 1988.
