Weigh in on the Make-a-Wish Western PA/Southern West Virginia porn connection. The Make a Wish Foundation of Western PA benefited from the Pittsburgh Comicon on April 25-27. They received proceeds from a casino night, auctions and tours with members of the cast of Dawn of the Dead. Attending the comic book convention were Playboy Playmates with their albums of nude and semi-nude photos. Playboy magazines, some not shrink wrapped, were easily accessible to children. Many times children are the victims of pornography. Why would Make-a-Wish want such close ties to an event that brings pornography into the community?
