I'm on my way out the door so this will have to be short. The comparisons to ancient sculpture/art are completely off. There is a major difference between the sculpture posted above and scenes of penetration, sexual dialog, etc. Show me some art in the Vatican portraying underage people and cumshots and I will say that Yes, that is a problem also. I doubt you'll find it tho. It is a stupid comparison to make.
Intent and purpose have a lot of influence on what something is. Your greek sculpture wasn't created and intended for someone to fulfill the fantasy of having sex with a child.
I wanted to see a link to the supreme court decision as the interpretation of things is often times not the reality of what they are. Lots of speech is protected, as it should be, that doesn't mean there aren't exceptions.
Glad to hear the UK has its head on straight.
It isn't going to be the tube sites, government meddling, visa rules, or xsales that will cause this industry long term problems. It will be the total lack of any type of internal policing and the ridiculously low barrier of entry that allows people to jump right in and do things such as this which give us all a bad name.
I have to run, but will be back in a few hours.
