The *ONLY* people on the face of gods green earth who are FORCED to view the material will be 12 jury members and a courtroom.
These obscenity laws are dated before VCR's even existed. In this day where discreet home delivery is the standard, it's absolutely ridiculous to actually try to apply such antiquated laws to modern day society.
I consider most of prime time tv to be obscene, and nearly ALL news reports from war zones and violent death coverage is graphic and abhorent to my sensibilities.
I'm not into extreme sex, I'm much more vanilla personally. But I know there are people who like to drip hot burning wax on themselves, and people who get off on the smell of a fresh bag of balloons and clamping nipples and whipping and spanking. Thats their pleasure! It's not mine, and it's not for *me* to say they are not permitted to achieve orgasm by whatever method!
With the current laws, the only hope prosecutors have is this sort of pseudo-entrapment and forcing a whitebread god serving jury to view something not of their choice. So of COURSE that's what they'll continue to do. Prosecutors job is not "justice", it's to WIN. Lawmakers we elect need to get on the stick and make new laws that apply to post 1960 society.
