And that why the stupid government will lose on appeal. And for other reason too. they CLEARLY violated Miller v California
Thi part of Miller bothers me and needs to be redressed in the courts
"4. The jury may measure the essentially factual issues of prurient appeal and patent offensiveness by the standard that prevails in the forum community, and
