If we ban space advertising, then only criminals will be able to advertise in space.
What we need to fight bad advertisers in space is good advertisers in space.
This could be solved if we only allowed astronauts to conceal-carry ad-copy.
(I like to use gun arguments out of context, because it emphasizes how dumb they are.)
Conservatives watch too many westerns, where the good guy defeats the bad guy in a standoff.
This is completely unrealistic though, because a "bad guy with a gun" would just show up and start shooting before anyone even knows he has a gun. And by the time the good guy gets there, dozens of people would already be dead.
Also "good guy with a gun" reeks of vigilantism and copaganda. "Oh, thank god the sheriff is here to save the day! Oh... oh wait he's just gonna abuse the laborers and move on, without bothering the evil mining baron who works them to death with impunity? OH GOD THEY'RE SHAKING HANDS! OH. OH NO. THE HUMANITY!!!"
Not to mention the casual racism that isn't even subtle. "Those injuns live right over on the other side of that ridge! We gotta put a posse together to go kill their men and enslave their women and children."
"Ahh, so these are the bad guys. When are the heroes going to show up to stop them?" ... "Ohh noo, these are the "heroes"... 😫"
