Will Stagliano case finally force a true definition of obscentity?
I think it could but is that really what adult wants? What if the new definition defines as any penetration as obscene, taking it out of future jury's hands, essentially creating slam dunk cases? Is this a good or bad thing if they end up redefining?
I know many of us have said we want it defined legally so we are aware of the boundaries when dealing with our freedom but what happens if they redefine in an archaic sense? Common sense would say that most garden variety porn would be safe if they addressed refining the definition but then again, common sense thought a jury in the Max Hardcore case would acquit him of sending through the mail when the distributor was the actual shipper and Max had no control of the shipment.
I am curious to what others thoughts are. Could adult as we know it come to an end this summer?
