60. I've posted laws
I would post

Miller v. California, 413 U.S. 15 (1973)

in it's entirety but the site is crashing my machine. You can find a link on the Utah website. The Utah website will answer more of your questions if you really want answers.

Free speech is not absolute - if you read what I posted you might get that. You might also get that it is NOT a strawman argument - it's just one you don't wish don't wish to recognize.


Your argument would be like saying that smoking pot is legal because nobody gets arrested at rock concerts. That doesn't mean that they couldn't. Or like saying that the speed limit is really 75 when it is posted 65 just because they don't stop anyone until they are going 75...

-------------

You would like to make out like I am promoting censorship as if I am against your freedom or something. While I think you are promoting exploitation. Read this if you wish to consider an opposing liberal viewpoint:

An abridged version of this appeared in MS magazine, Spring 2004, pp. 54-58. The complete text was published as "Cruel to be hard: Men and pornography," in Sexual Assault Report, January/February 2004, pp. 33-34, 45-48
