Exactly. Without a CLEAR definition of obscenity on the books how can they lock up a guy for 4 years? Having a gf that loves rough sex I know from experience that what some see as obscene is just other peoples preference. So you get a jury with 12 fuddy duddies that think ALL porn is obscene and it could be anyone of us in jail.
