Default Banning Internet Pornography and the First Amendment

The first amendment protects our right to freedom of speech. Do you think this protects internet pornography? Why or why not? I am writing a paper on it for my Human Sexuality class and wanted to see what you guys thought. Hopefully this will generate a good discussion and give me plenty of ideas.

Discuss....


Oh, btw I have to include both sides of the argument so for those of you that enjoy playing devils advocate please do so

No, he's arguing both for and against a position that doesn't exist. I don't understand the purpose. There are plenty of real issues.
