Should obscenity exist? Should we not be able to watch what we want in our own homes? If someone makes a movie like Max makes and 1000 people buy it, they chose to buy it. If it turns you off, cool, don't watch. The people in the videos are consenting adults, it is consenting adults watching them. I personally don't like that type of porn, I prefer the softcore stuff, but I think we should be free to watch, read and listen to anything we want. If our neighbors don't like it, that is fine, they are free to do as they wish because they aren't involved.

I have never heard of one case where someone was convicted of obscenity and suddenly the community sprouted to life and home values shot up and jobs were created because that person was no longer making porn.
