If you could guarantee 100% that the liberals wouldn't try and extend government censorship past porn once a generation or two of Americans has gotten used to an internet that is censored by the government, I think most of us would support you and others like you.
This is not hard. Obscenity is not protected by the First Amendment, but almost everything else is. That has been enough of a defense since the founding of the Republic until the 1960s and could be again with a reasonable judiciary and people who actually understand the founding documents serving as elected officials.

Muslims think that depicting Muhammed is obscene, more obscene than pornography - they threaten people with death over silly little cartoons. If you don't think they won't try and push that angle, think again.
