The specific law I cited was M.G.L. Chapter 272, sections 28, 29, and 31, which was posted in reply numbers 19, 43, 103, and 136. I know what sections 28, 29, and 31 state:
"Section 28. Matter harmful to minors, dissemination; possession; defenses."
"Whoever disseminates to a minor any matter harmful to minors, as defined in section thirty-one, knowing it to be harmful to minors, or has in his possession any such matter with the intent to disseminate the same to minors, shall be punished by imprisonment..."
"Section 29. Dissemination or possession of obscene matter; punishment; defense."
"Whoever disseminates any matter which is obscene, knowing it to be obscene, or whoever has in his possession any matter which is obscene, knowing it to be obscene, with the intent to disseminate the same, shall be punished by imprisonment..."
"Section 31. Definitions applicable to secs. 28, 28C, 28D, 28E, 29, 29A, 29B, 30 and 30D."
"'Harmful to minors', matter is harmful to minors if it is obscene or, if taken as a whole, it (1) describes or represents nudity, sexual conduct or sexual excitement, so as to appeal predominantly to the prurient interest of minors; (2) is patently contrary to prevailing standards of adults in the county where the offense was committed as to suitable material for such minors; and (3) lacks serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value for minors."
"'Obscene', matter is obscene if taken as a whole it (1) appeals to the prurient interest of the average person applying the contemporary standards of the county where the offense was committed; (2) depicts or describes sexual conduct in a patently offensive way; and (3) lacks serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value..."
Since I cited sections 28, 29, and 31 of the law, you are correct when you state "A crime was committed in violation of the law that YOU cite" - Go back to reply 136 and read again what David Driscoll, Commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Education said:
"The workshops were of prurient nature, and not educational"
And yet the State of Massachusetts does nothing. Except spend millions of tax dollars on GLSEN's GSA's.
