Smut is speech. Frankly, smut is the highest form of speech. You should not need to show your papers to speak or to listen
Is that a legal definition or your personal interpretation?
If it's a legal definition then that's the problem.
If you want to start talking to lawmakers about wanting to watch porn without having to show ID, you would be dismissed if you're going to cite free speech being the right it is infringing upon. Privacy would be a better starting point, for example.
That’s your personal interpretation. I think you’re full of shite and so does Larry Flint.
Big shame people are unaware of a century’s worth of obscenity law… how in western democracy the high courts literally found that laws like these violated free speech protections over “local prurient interests” and hence struck down those laws.
