An Oklahoma state senator is looking to clean up his state one dirty movie at a time.
State Sen. Dusty Deevers, R-Elgin, introduced a bill that would not only outlaw the production and distribution of pornography illegal, it would make the act of watching pornography a felony!
Elgin wrote in his proposal:
For far too long, civil society has conflated liberty for license,” the lawmaker remarked. “These bills are aimed at strengthening the God-instituted bedrock of society, that is, the family. A strong, prosperous and flourishing society depends on strong families.”
According to FOX 25, those caught engaging with pornographic media, which covers films, pictures, video games, books, magazines, drawings, and statues can face up to a year in prison and a fine of at least $2,000.
The bill reads, “Each of the items of unlawful pornography ... are depictions of sexual conduct which are patently offensive under contemporary community standards in this state and have as their dominant theme an appeal to prurient interest in sex.”
