Anyone selling porn already has no moral compass whatsoever, selling the filth and making a buck are all that such a person cares about.
Second, the only reason porn is legal is because of the commie founded ACLU, a leftist leaning SCOTUS, and porn producers; IIRC it was Larry Flynt who got the lawsuit going to get porn legalized.
For almost 200 years no constitutional scholars, nor the men who wrote it, thought that the First Amendment protected obscenity, pornography or strip clubs.
Thanks to the ACLU, porn producers and (IIRC) the same SCOTUS who legalized abortion, we now have tons of people who think that porn is intended to be Constitutionally protected free speech and should be legal.
Constitutionally speaking, it should not be legal.

Thanks for the thorough and very thoughtful response. Even here on FR, I see those (often of a libertarian bent) who defend the smut merchants from a laissez-faire free market business perspective. Like you, little jeremiah, I draw the line there and choose not to side with filth peddlers like Larry Flynt. Well, if that makes me a prude, then so be it.
I think it serves us well to remember one of the tenents of communism is to..."break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV."
