Remember when they said all they want is to be left alone?

[griswold3]

Why do we have age restrictions on alcohol and cigarettes?

[mfish13]

They are coming for our children.

[escapefromboston]

Pornography is evidently free speech too but is banned for children.

[DAC21]

Wow, Reagan appointed Judge.

[Theodore R.]

Reagan made other bad judicial picks. Sandra O’Connor and Anthony Kennedy, for sure.

[Hodar]

So can children now go to topless bars, because “free speech”?

[napscoordinator]

Unfortunately there would be a Karen who would put their nose into cheerleading and say it’s pornography due to some skimpy out fits and cheer moves. I definitely can see the cheer coach getting locked up over it. They need to tighten the bill and not make it so broad.

are meant to be a form of art that is meant to entertain, alone this would warrant some level of First Amendment protection,

The shows aren’t banned...only people under 18 are banned from them.

What’s the big deal, judge? We ban all sorts of things from young people.

Another criminal in a black robe. The anti-federalists were right. The entire court system would lead to the downfall of a federalist government.

They won't stop once they have the children. They'll figure out something else to want.

Their problem is that they are trying to fill a hole inside that has no bottom. Their neediness knows no bounds and can never be satisfied.

Perhaps one should be performed outside his house on say Thanksgiving when his family is there. Do it on the sidewalk which is public property, so he can’t have them trespassed.

[eeriegeno]

Why do we have age restrictions on alcohol and cigarettes?

And kids should carry since the 2nd Amendment also applies to them! Once again common sense does not rule....

[high info voter]

So pushing pornography should be “free speech”???? HELL NO!

[RoosterRedux]

Apropos my earlier comment, perversion is addictive like a drug. The only answer is more.

That's the way "sin" operates...whether it is perversion, sex, or even money. The more you get, the more you want.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

This is so wrong. To those who say that we’ve always had evil like this, but it wasn’t published or seen for some reason are also wrong. We have NOT had the myriad of evil things in our society here in the U.S. before. This is all very recent and it’s getting worse. God is not going to allow it. TRY TO REMEMBER THAT STATEMENT AND WATCH WHAT EVENTUALLY HAPPENS.

[EEGator]

Yes, and dumbass women believed them.

Whoever brought up women being allowed to vote should have been immediately publicly castrated, then disemboweled, then immolated.

[Ikeon]

Yeah? why do they have age restrictions on movies? why do they have age restrictions on strip clubs? this judge is the devils right hand minion.

[eartick]

Parents need to step up and protect their children. Attend school board meetings and inform them that no minors should be subject to this immoral act.
