      Smut is speech. Frankly, smut is the highest form of speech. You should not need to show your papers to speak or to listen

            If you want to start talking to lawmakers about wanting to watch porn without having to show ID, you would be dismissed if you’re going to cite free speech being the right it is infringing upon. Privacy would be a better starting point, for example.
