I would like to read this law, or is that a crime too?
Putting a person in jail for 10 years for viewing a video, is as heinous a crime as murder. Arguably worse, because it’s done with tyrranical authority; and like murder, can be committed against anyone for any reason and there’s no recourse, no justice.
This is what happens when you don't have a First Amendment.
Here you go, have fun:

What is 'objectionable' and 'restricted' material?Objectionable
Objectionable is defined under the Films, Videos and Publications Classification Act 1993 as:
"a publication...(that) describes, depicts or expresses, or otherwise deals with matters such as sex, horror, crime, cruelty or violence in such a manner that the availability of the publication is likely to be injurious to the public good."
All objectionable material is banned.
In deciding whether a publication is objectionable, or should instead be given an unrestricted or restricted classification, consideration is given to the extent, degree and manner in which the publication describes, depicts, or deals with:
* acts of torture, the infliction of serious physical harm or acts of significant cruelty
* sexual violence or sexual coercion, or violence or coercion in association with sexual conduct
* sexual or physical conduct of a degrading or dehumanising or demeaning nature
* sexual conduct with or by children, or young persons, or both
* physical conduct in which sexual satisfaction is derived from inflicting or suffering cruelty or pain
* exploits the nudity of children, young persons, or both
* degrades or dehumanises or demeans any person
* promotes or encourages criminal acts or acts of terrorism
* represents that members of any particular class of the public are inherently inferior to other members of the public
* by reason of any characteristic of members of that class being a characteristic that is a prohibited ground of discrimination specified in the Human Rights Act 1993.
Sounds like something our Congress might dream up. Give them time...it will come to them! Absolutely no shortage of idiots in any country or any country’s government!
