Extremist muslims and extremist christians are both offended by nude human bodies. Both groups, through the years, have committed acts of "mindless violence" because of their belief that "porn" is evil. Should all porn be banned for fear of offending terrorists or should Americans fight for their constitutional rights?

of course not, but you miss my point. this ain't about "porn"...this is about practicality. porn and "obscenity" just provides the way to get this site closed.
right now the USA is spending BILLIONS fighting a mindless irrational enemy that cannot easily be reckoned with.
this case is NOT about "obscenity"---if it was about "obscenity" there are 50,000 MORE obscene websites operating in the USA today.
this is about getting a website shut down that gives free porn memberships to soldiers who can supply images of people being mangled and killed and dismembered in the middle east.
every crazed camel jockey in the world with an axe to grind against the western "infidels" can go online and see his fellow rag head dismembered because this knucklehead in florida is publishing these images so he can get some easy traffic to push his mediocre smut.
someone way higher up (federal govt) wants this site shut down because by doing so will actually save people's lives.
it ain't about dirty pictures---it's about trying to prevent another dune coon from strapping plastic explosives to his belly and walking into a market in bagdad and blowing his guts out and the guts out of a bunch of other innocent people.
i know this is complicated for many here.
