| Why won't my local library stock Playboy and Penthouse? I have a right to be titillated in the stacks! |

| This has always been a thing, I’ve witnessed this multiple times over the years at the moco MD libraries. I’ve seen people on PHub, xvideos, etc in the middle of the library watching depraved material |

Unless it is sanctioned by a school board. In that case prepubescent children NEED to be indoctrinated by drag queens that keep you guessing and forced the option to tuck, before they snip. |

| If I saw this, I’d say something out loud to bring attention to the pervert. Can they be watching child rape? |

| I remember walking by the computer section as a teen studying in the public library in the 90s/00s and seeing men watching porn. It's disgusting and I'm not surprised it's still happening. |

No. Porn is legal. Child porn is illegal. |

But sometimes you don’t know if the rape victim is 17 or 18, right? I highly recommend speaking up if you see this, except of course if you think he might assault you. |

We can only intervene if they are sharing the material with a minor. Unfortunately, viewing it in an open, public space does not constitute sharing it with a minor.
We can offer privacy screens but they do not have to use them. We can involve the police if there is touching of any kind or exposed body parts. Public libraries can't put content filters or blocks for this material because it's protected under 1A. |

We do! You just have to ask us for them. Those are kept behind the desk and must be checked out for viewing in the library. The library where I work has 10 or 12 years of back issues as well. You cannot show them to a minor or collect them from us for a minor. That is illegal and will result in the police being called. You don't have to hide that you're looking at them, though. Touching or exposing yourself is also illegal and will get the cops called. But yes, grandpa can request the latest Playboy and flip through it right in the middle of the stacks. |

You start banning and burning books/magazines where does it stop? Remember people are burning Barbies and the Teletubbies. |

This happens literally every day in the library, hang out at a library near the computers and you’ll see someone there watching pr0n eventually |

However reading and showing children porn in school is ok. Arlington and Alexandria literally today reaffirmed that. Loudoun still doesn’t care about the double rapes and cover up. |
