Patriot Act used to Shut Down Porn?

Weeeell the moral busybodies are at it again. Now I should state before I link to the Reason video on this that I'm not a supporter of this hardcore S&M porn they are referring to. However, at the same time, I think that as long as things are voluntary they have a right to produce whatever kind of adult films they want.

To steal and mutilate a phrase:

"First they came for the Bondage Websites. And I didn't speak up because I wasn't into Bondage ...."

You get the idea.

The fact that they are trying to use the PATRIOT Act to circumvent obscenity laws is just ridiculous. These people are not supporting terrorists.

Funny, in a time of economic crash they are actually putting businesses OUT of business. Funny, shouldn't they be trying to make sure people keep their jobs?

*sigh*
