Have you ever really seen Hustler?

Until the current Flynt media-hype, few Americans had ever seen
the Flynt flagship publication in which he vents his barbaric
brand of graphic violence-and-sex. Who is the man who now
"terrorizes" Congress? I have really
seen Flynt and his sadistic imagery and fantasy having been
charged by the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) Juvenile Justice
and Delinquency Prevention, to direct a two-year content
analysis of Images of Children, Crime and
Violence in Playboy, Penthouse and Hustler (1953-1984).1
Our study documented each issue of Hustler averaging 14.1 children and pseudo-children alongside 47 images of crime and violence; 52 percent of child photos were sexually explicit and most cartooned children were sexually violated. Flynt regularly presents a volatile co-mingling of images of sex, violence, scatological degradation, fear and horror. Seen routinely are blood-dripping-mutilated hands, arms, heads, breasts and penises, often gutted, decapitated, castrated and satanically murdered and cannibalized, racist and occult images dominate the "magazine." December 1978, Hustler published photographs of naked children as young as three-years of age in sex scenes alongside an article, "Children, Sex and Society," advocating an end to age of consent, calling for acceptance of adult-child sex, and legalization of incest. Hustler is not for those challenged by human compassion. For example, in:
So much for fantasy! The May 1984 Hustler cartoon of a father sexually abusing his daughter helped convict Hustler editorial cartoon director, Dwaine Tinsely, in real life, of felony child sexual abuse of his own daughter in 1989. He gave her birth control pills at age thirteen, drugged her and sexually abused her until age eighteen, when she became a suicidal drug addict. Tinsley alone had contributed 145 Hustler cartoons of violent child kidnapping and rape. The FBI Uniform Crime Rate from 1972-1991 found a 128% increase in reported rapes,2 with both offenders and victims increasingly younger. The Reader's Digest commented on the troubling FBI data, saying, "It could be concluded that some force impelling toward sex crime has been operating on younger males in the United States." In reality, the abusive Hustler cartoons commonly exhibit the coarse "humor" which defines the present White House scandal. To this trained eye, the predatory "force impelling" the president toward a powerless White House intern is reminiscent of Hustler's ongoing themes of deceit, manipulation, degradation and fantasy.
