Am I saying it would be easy? Hell no, butjust dismising the effort out of hand and having an attitude that is confrontational all the time certainly doesn't help the cause.

What cause are you talking about ? Censorship ? Filtering ? Abridging the Bill of Rights ? Keeping porn away from kids ?
In law we have a saying I am sure you have heard of its called "the slippery slope." What you are advocating is a slippery slope. Most lawyers/judges understand this because they have spent years researching case law and watched how one case builds on another case and so forth. This is why the ACLU is so hated. They understand that certain speech may not be popular but if you allow some speech to be regulated then you take the first step on that slope and there's no going back.
Sorry, protecting a determined 15 year old from seeing his first BJ scene is not worth the risk. Numerous judges have enjoined and now struck down COPA on that very premise.

Politicians have no clue about the law. Many are car salesman, doctors, small business owners. They pass laws that are unconstitutional and we have to spend years reversing the damage. It has taken 9 years to deal with COPA and its still going on.
