Jail Time Proposed in Poland For Having Polish Pornography

Classified Polnews

Warsaw, Poland 16 March, 2007  There is growing support for a bill in the Polish Parliament that would give you one year in jail for possession pornographic material in Poland. And jail times would be a lot longer if you sell it.

The current Polish Government came to power with the promise to create a moral revolution. They have been pursuing that goal on many fronts.

They have not always been successful. A quest by the Polish President Lech Kaczynski, when he was the President of Warsaw, to shut down the brothels in Warsaw failed. They are open, visible and advertise freely. Parked cars get their daily dose of advertisements for services put under the windshield wipers.

But the Government is undeterred. The new law proposed will cover every form of pornography. Even pornography on the internet would be outlawed and subject both the viewer and provider to the penalties of the law.

No one will be excepted. Adults with their own, self made home movies or pictures would even be subject to jail time.
