Homeless Men Caught Watching Porn at Laguna Beach Library, Patrons Say

LAGUNA BEACH (KTLA) -- Laguna Beach Public Library patrons say there's a big problem with homeless people watching porn on library computers.

Police found eight homeless men gathered around a computer inside the library Saturday afternoon watching pornography.

One was arrested for allegedly fondling himself.

Joseph Clarence Cormier II, 46, was put under citizen's arrest by another library patron.

The reported to police that he noticed Cormier touching himself and saw porn on his screen.

Cormier was arrested for lewd conduct and possession of marijuana.

The library was packed with kids at the time, and some parents are outraged.

The library says the First Amendment prevents them from blocking porn sites, and from monitoring what people research.

But one parent, who is also an attorney, had a different view of the matter.

"They don't have porn magazines in the library," Jason Farhadian told KTLA.

"So if they can prohibit that, why can't they apply it to the websites?"

The library says that computers set aside for children's use do have filters.
 
Exactly! They don't have porn mags in the library so why does anyone have the right to view it in a public library! They don't. Not on my dime!

They were viewing porn on a computer in the library. These clowns could have been more discreet, tsk.
 
Homeless, but had marijuana? Sounds like an issue with priorities. "Got my herb, got my 'puter, no need for a roof."
 
I agree with the attorney mom..there is a time and a place for everything. A library is not the place to get off sexually.
 
Oh this is nothing....they found someone looking at child porn in a local community college's computer lab.

Now why do you have to go and kill a perfectly good fantasy like that? :(
 
Just like there are children friendly sections, there should be adult friendly sections, whether it's to watch porn, or just be in a generally more quiet kids free environment. That said, I am not taking a moral position on pornography, but if you can read Aryan ideology, you should also be allowed to watch porn...in an environment where kids aren't.

Yep. The money spent on that joint would have paid the rent on an apartment for 3 months.
 
But then you'll have to hire a librarian, because the way I understand it, she is a big part of the library fantasy.:giggle:

Ah! That's what's missing from my home library! :giggle:
