Comments on: Why the Chief Justice of India is wrong about Porn http://hatwar.org/epilogue/2010/02/wrong-about-porn/ Amol Hatwar's perspectives on art, culture, business, science and technology Tue, 08 Jun 2010 13:23:30 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Amol Hatwar http://hatwar.org/epilogue/2010/02/wrong-about-porn/comment-page-1/#comment-175 Amol Hatwar Fri, 26 Feb 2010 23:33:38 +0000 http://hatwar.org/epilogue/?p=177#comment-175 @Vinayak: The frequency is a bit better than before, but WordPress still gets updated before I can write a post. Damn! As far as Prostitution goes, you are right, it isn't legal in India. The post never said that it is, or ever was. All that happened was that the Supreme Court nudged the government to either deal with it effectively or legalize it. There have been some studies about benefits of legalizing prostitution; but, at the end of the day, the "culture card" makes it a difficultly bitter pill to swallow. @Vinayak: The frequency is a bit better than before, but WordPress still gets updated before I can write a post.

With all my heart. It's alarming that the State is shrinking the private space of thought and freedom. What's next Mr. Justice? Slap a restriction on the number of fukcs a day for Indians? These are Shahs of Blah who'd take a nice intervention to drag healthy humans to their versions of HariOmLand. Shrinking humans into 'social citizens'. I concur. With all my heart.
