Document Summary
Toronto star november 12, 2012 text 113 words. I am an out of towner who once lived in toronto. I visited the city the other day with my son and walked along the theatre district. There was a tiny person, about four foot ten, sleeping in the middle of the sidewalk with a tim horton"s cup and covered with a pink patterned blanket. Well dressed citizens were chatting on cellphones planning lunch, stepping gingerly over the tiny person without a glance. I would have described the city as classy, cultured and cutting edge. I would now describe toronto as callous, cold and calculating. Pornography has spread rapidly in recent years in this country, as smallpox would if there were no vaccination and no control by public health authorities. Like a disease, it does insidious harm, not only to the moral fibres of the person exposed to pornography, but to his character, for he can never completely recover.
