“Non-coercion would mean the use of persuasion to get people to voluntarily stop.”

I presume you are in favour of government regulation? As far as I can see, there is nothing compelling a jurisdiction to permit the sale, distribution and operation of pornography should the people choose to bar it.

The same way there is nothing compelling a jurisdiction to permit the sale of alcohol.

You presume falsely.

As far as I can see, there is nothing compelling a jurisdiction to permit the sale, distribution and operation of pornography should the people choose to bar it.

Except that the Supreme Court has ruled in numerous cases that porn is covered under First Amendment protection.
