Porn Leads to Reckless Driving Charge

-- Citizenlink.org

A Tennessee man who was apparently looking at pornography as he drove was charged with reckless endangerment Friday-- police said his erratic driving had caused others to fear an accident, Breitbart reported.

A woman called police after David Kennedy of Nashville almost ran her off the road. Rutherford County Deputy Tony Hall found the driver and pulled him over.

"When I made contact with the driver of the suspect vehicle," Hall said, "there were several pornographic magazines on the seat next to him."

Daniel Weiss, senior analyst for media and sexuality at Focus on the Family Action, said, with the addictive nature of pornography, it is not surprising that someone would endanger the lives of others while attempting to feed that addiction.

"Incidents like this dispel the myth of 'harmless adult entertainment.' Pornography is an insidious evil threatening the fabric of society," he said. "The sooner we start calling it and treating it for what it is -- a public health hazard -- the safer we'll all be."
