Poll: Do you think porn is a public health concern?

A US State says porn is a scourge that ‘warps children’s minds’.

A US STATE has declared that pornography is a public health crisis as ‘children’s minds are being corrupted in a world where graphic sexual images are a click away’.

The political leaders in Utah added that pornography is a plague that threatens marriages and contributes to sexual violence.

An American adult entertainment trade group has called Utah’s declaration an “old-fashioned” morals bill that is driven by ignorance and bias.

So today we’re asking, do you think porn is a public health concern?
