We're All Podunkville, Now.

There is no way this sort of thing can fail to go to the supreme Court. One can only hope it will be overturned there, or at least reversed and remanded.

Jurisdiction A says a photo of a beluga whale is offensive and bans it. A person in Jurisdiction Z takes a picture of a beluga whale. A different person who wouldn't know the photographer from Adam views the photo over the internet, on a computer in Jurisdiction A. Jurisdiction A then prosecutes . . . the PHOTOGRAPHER? WTH? Any judge who thinks this is a good ruling needs to retire, because they obviously have no idea what this whole 'series of tubes' is about.
