Comments from feedback form - "Though it sickens me, I agree ..."

Though it sickens me, I agree that the film should be legal. The action of harming these animals should be what is criminalized and harshly penalized. However, it opens up an avenue that other things, such as child pornography, might be, in turn, given the okay. After all, if they say video of a criminal act is okay, that video might become legal.

I find it really unlikely that any legislation will ever be introduced regarding legalizing child pornography, despite the precedent set by this case - for one, the tenets of CYA prohibit it. Any public figure who attempts to do so will almost certainly find themselves lynched before the day is done (and well-done at that).

I'm staunchly anti-censorship; I applaud this ruling because it's a welcome change from the mental standpoint of sacrificing liberty for safety that seems to be common in post-9/11 years. I also believe that politicians making decisions about what I can and can not watch is another step on the path to tyranny - even though I'd never watch something like this in the first place, that decision is mine and not my government's.
