Ok here we go. No more invasion I hope. Now first when 2 laws covering the same topic contradict the it means both that all things illegalized in either law are illegal. second that when the laws contradict the newer law is given presidence. Laws are allowed to contradict. There are simply 2 many for them not to. Laws aren't allowed to contradict the constitution. Of course that law has to be taken to the courts and proven that it conflicts the constitution. After which a politician can simply rewrite the law and pass it again.
Next Onto the case in point. Page 81 of the Protect Act says:
1 SEC. 504. OBSCENE CHILD PORNOGRAPHY.
2 (a) IN GENERAL.—Chapter 71 of title 18, United
3 States Code, is amended by inserting after section 1466
4 the following:
5 ‘‘§ 1466A. Obscene visual representations of the sex6
ual abuse of children

cumstance described in subsection (d), knowingly pro9

I know I know you said it was art before. GOOD LUCK ARGUING THAT TO THE COURT. hardcore sex has never been found to be of artistic value in court. Also this doesn't define animated child pornography as legally child pornography. It just says that you can get charged the same way. Also, If you want to get really specific. I would like to know how they can have a section of a law that is supposed to be making specific things illegal start with "‘‘(a) IN GENERAL.—" I know almost every law starts with this phrase now. but it should be fucking illegal. HOW THE FUCK CAN THEY BE ALLOWED TO PUT A CATCH ALL LIKE "IN GENERAL" IN A FUCKING LAW. sorry, just my rant. but there is my reply. And still nobody has answered my questions i put forth in
>>16 and

The PROTECT Act of 2002 I think ammened ammended US Code, Title 18, Section 2256 making artifical pornography illegal to. please check page 75-80 for me to make sure I got that right. I can't sort out exactly how it was rewritten.
