But thanks for the link. Most of it is unsurprising, but I'm not sure if the comparison to the regulation of firearms is necessarily apt considering that more and more, we are learning that 'obscenity' is too arbitrary a label for the myriad of expression we are capable, while, thankfully, we are treating gun violence more and more seriously.

The two have two different destinies. Speech becomes freer, and gun access more difficult.
