Supreme Court Hears Pornography Case During White Ribbons Against ...

Michael Williams pleaded guilty under a federal law that prohibits knowingly advertising promoting presenting distributing or soliciting any material in a manner that reflects the belief or that is intended to cause another to accept that the material is illegal child pornography. The Supreme Court is charged with determining if this law is overly broad and impermissibly vague and thus unconstitutional.
Mario Diaz. Concerned Women for America's (CWA) Policy Director for Legal Issues says the answer is: no. "This law requires a specific intent on the move of the individual. It requires that he knowingly distribute or solicit illegal child pornography or for him to create another to believe the material is illegal child pornography material that is clearly not protected speech under the First Amendment."
CWA President Wendy Wright says she hopes the Supreme Court ordain go beyond mere theory and takes a closer be at the enormous cause pornography has on our society. "The facts of this case bring out for us the need for laws against obscene material and the importance of the strict enforcement of those laws. The First Amendment protects the intelligent transfer of ideas. It offers no protection for a parent to furnish lascivious pictures of his toddler being sexually abused.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
