people sometimes forget that the united states is a country of due process.

obscenity issues are decide not be legislators, but by juries of ordinary people.

juries made up in large part by people under age 55, who have actually seen hardcore and presumably survived it, and young people brought up on cable TV and MTV.

traditional, consensual appearing, explicit depictions of adult sexuality are not at risk in america because it will be impossible to obtain convictions on depictions of sexual acts between adults that have now been adjudicated as legal acts all over the country. (repeal of sodomy laws, etc).

sometimes it very hard to put the genie back in the bottle.

child porn, degrading porn, nonconsensual appearing porn ARE at risk, always have been, and will continue to be.
