The negatives to their arguments aren't necessarily Constitutional rights, but civil rights. That's far too complex an issue to detail here.

The strength of their movement will be in the criminal activity of adult webmasters and related businesses toward the public and pornmeisters toward pornmeisters. In the past few years as more junkies and degenerate gamblers started emerging as pornmeisters they started attacking one another. Libel and slander and theft. Industry corroding from the inside allows even the smallest attack from the outside to bring the industry to a crawl. If I ever chose to go against the adult industry I could drop so much heat you wouldn't be able to post a picture of your girlfriend in a pair of Dr. Dentons.

If this industry is going to survive it has to police itself so stringently as to not allow for mistakes. However, that's impossible to do because any one guy with a good looking girlfriend can start a new branch of this industry.

From now on this industry is going to have to deal with the more shit it starts the more shit it has to scrape off it's shoes.

Aaah Boone One of the ways this industry, as all industries police themselves is through law. If you are libeled (as a for instance) and that costs you money and the guilty party refuses to aid in reversing the effects of their libel on your income, why wouldn't you sue? It's everyone's right outside the biz to do so, why would we inside the biz exclude ourselves from legal recourse?

I find your opinion to be a little confusing coming from a highly regarded legal expert cartoonist
