And I'm sure every 11 year old kid had easy access to such books and they were sold at the check-out counter at the local general stores.

So, considering that it's not too difficult, through fines and sting operations, to punish shopkeepers who knowingly sell tobacco to 11-year-olds, why do you consider the same basic circumstance in the realm of porn to demand draconian federal action?
