The thing that gets me about the American government's stance (or lack of it) regarding this, is that in 1986 Jello Biafra was arrested and charged with "Distribution of harmful matter to minors" [1], for including a poster of the H.R. Giger artwork "Penis Landscape" with the album Frankenchrist, which had been exhibited in many art galleries around the world, including America. Yet the American government seem considerably less than eager to do anything about explicit images being delivered to children's mailboxes. Makes you wonder how much involvement the CIA, FBI, and various other government bodies with acronyms, have in the porn industry. The rest of the world could do with getting their collective act together too. [1] On his "High Priest of Harmful Matter Album" spoken word album, Jello explains what happened during the bust, the arrest and the court case, in which he was finally acquitted. Worth a listen if you can hold of it. Barbie.
