But his solution to remove those photos was to ban all images created by individuals. Had I been less passionate at the time I wrote, I would have said his proposal would throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Well, I think the "to make a point" was the part which would not ban *all* images, though the question of which images are "making a point" and which aren't is fairly unsolveable, in my opinion (any picture can be read as "making a point" -- some points are obvious, some are subtle; some are marked, some are unmarked). Which is just one of the reasons the proposal is not sound (it is also unnecessary, which is a separate point).
