Rehovot as a Center of Pornography for Children and Adults
When and why do children become interested in pornography? This, no doubt, is a complicated question, demanding detailed and serious consideration. Nevertheless, there is no doubt that the authorities who are responsible should limit children’s free access to the porno industry’s sales. This is as simple as easy maths.
However, this is where Rehovot is lacking in responsibility. Or, more precisely, this is where Rehovot’s parents are furious.
For example, there are two self-service Video/DVD renting booths situated very close to the Rehovot Central Police Station on Herzl Street (near the Pelephone sales office), and at the junction of Weizmann and Ahad Ha’am Streets, near the gate of the police station. In addition to movies suitable for all audiences, both booths offer DVDs and Videos containing material most unsuitable for young children.
The bright and colourful DVD covers attract passers-by to rent from the large selection of pornograph movies available.
After noticing such permissiveness, we recalled the words of a nine-year-old Rehovot boy who was trying to remember the term for love between two girls. While we were not sure whether he was serious or not, we wonder where such knowledge came from.
We now know that acquiring such information by not-even-a-teenager, could well come from a "nice", ordinary Rehovot street, thanks to the Rehovot Municipality inspectors and police officers whom, for some reason, did not catch sight of such a criminal case. But, perhaps they did not want to notice? Maybe they, themselves, are consumers of these types of videos? We do not know. While one can understand the desire to raise pornography film distrubution as a way to increase profits for the self-service DVD rent booth owners (see below ID passport displayed in each of two reported locations), who gave these owners, and the Municipality, the right to expose to a diverse Rehovot public such videos with "adult" content? Can the city be sued?
One need not have an education in law to realize that such pitiful neglect of morality should be present on the street of any town of a jural state, especially in an academic town such as Rehovot. We hope this will be stopped and eliminated.
To help deal with this matter, we have sent a copy of this publication to the Spokesman’s Office of Rehovot Mayor, Shuki Forer. We hope that public awareness of this unfortunate incident will contribute to the Rehovot Municipality inspectors’ efficiency, and Rehovot businesses legality, before the Rehovot public decides to sue the municipality for assisting in the distribution of pornography among Rehovot minors.
The definition by Meriam Websters dictionary (see above) suggests that there are sufficient grounds for doing so.
