So, I know we are discussing the legislation of pornagraphy in general. If I understand correctly, you say that federal government should have no jurisdiction over it. Now I wonder, what about child pornagraphy? Do you think that it is reasonable for the federal government to make it illegal?

It's well within their jurisdiction to ban it coming in from foreign countries. They have a role to play in interstate investigations, but the responsibility and authority rests with the states. Anyone who argues that it has to be a federal law is basically saying they don't trust the citizens of their own state to understand that child pornography should be illegal. If that's the case, they need to live somewhere else. IMHO.
