Contrary to lies spewed by the mainstream media, the anti-pornography legislation of the 80s was to provide a CIVIL, NOT CRIMINAL, remedy to people harmed in the making of pornography.

I think the threat of taking away their money was a lot scarier than any threat they felt about the first amendment.
