Here's a hint: "firewall"
Another hint: "blocked IP's"

You forget the US has the US Constitution. May I suggest googling COPA. Also blocking IP would have to be done at the ISP level and they are reluctant to even block torrent sites that are committing copyright infringement. But now they're totally willing to block LEGAL porn sites. Yeah ok.
You live in some fantasy world let me give you a does of reality. Ok let say there was some desire in Congress to pass such a bill( I haven't heard of any )say such a bill got passed and somehow they accelerated to a Jan 1st 2012 start date of this law( VERY doubtful such a law would take place that fast ) Immediately someone would sue and an injunction would be in place until the case is hard in court. This would take many months if not years. The loser would appeal and appeal again until the case is inevitably heard by the US Supreme Court. Even if the US Supreme Court upheld this law( they didn't COPA ) were talking 10 years from now at the earliest such a law could accually be in place in the US. A bit late in my book don't you think? Would it really do any good at that point?
