I've never been on the "fringe" of anything. I believe in what our constitution says and that we are supposed to be free people.
If you go out and rob a store and get caught...then the stuff you stole should be returned to the store you stole it from.
If you sell drugs to grown people who should be free to make their own decisions...then the govt. coming along and just taking all that drug dealers belongings SOUNDS good. But it's not.
Thus what they did to Max Hardcore. And what they would do to anybody that broke one of the hundreds of thousands of laws they keep writing.
You don't know me. I'm not Johnny Clips for God's sake! 
I just think the govt. will sell of that person's private property, no victims will ever see a penny of it, and the money will go down a bureaucratic rabbit hole with no oversight by anyone to make sure.
The govt. should not have that kind of power over us. Just my opinion. |
I am against obscenity laws altogether but we are nations of laws and even when you disagree with a law you have to live with it, if the law is that offensive to you you and others who feel the same fight to have the law repealed. Max Hardcore was very successful, he was convicted of obscenity - I don't think it's wrong that the government can seize the profits made from the videos found to be obscene. They can't get the profits he made on all the videos he made that have never been found obscene.
