Supreme Court (SCOTUS) upholds a Texas law that requires porn websites to verify that their visitors are 18 or older, rejecting a First Amendment challenge to the law (www.eff.org)

Today’s decision in Free Speech Coalition v. Paxton is a direct blow to the free speech rights of adults. The Court ruled that “no person—adult or child—has a First Amendment right to access speech that is obscene to minors without first submitting proof of age.” This ruling allows states to enact onerous age-verification rules that will block adults from accessing lawful speech, curtail their ability to be anonymous, and jeopardize their data security and privacy. These are real and immense burdens on adults, and the Court was wrong to ignore them in upholding Texas’ law.

Strangely the right to life crowd really loves killing people. However I do think it is unfair to label them as anti-muslim, because the also love killing children, women, the poor... Basically anyone who is not rich and male.

I wonder what all the "pro-porn", "pro-free speech", gamergate republican pundits on the internet have to say about this...
