This is blatantly unconstitutional.
I’m curious about why. The one law that had been overturned so far was on the basis of government compelled speech, because in addition to age verification, the law required porn sites to have a paragraph talking about how porn makes baby Jesus cry. I’m not so sure ID requirements by themselves are going to have the same outcome.
Are you dumb? Or just not capable of understanding that some of us are in the legal world and think in terms of what the courts will do, and what rationale they will have? I didn’t stake out a position. However I absolutely think this legislation is terrible.
Allahu’s Snackbar with a lifelike painting of Mohammed over the cash register and morality police, fuck yeah.
