The decision ultimately means that laws can restrict the free speech of adults in service of protecting children.

Am I the only one who beleives that it would have been a more effective arguement to try and use the 4th amendment instead of the 1st? Violating free speech is just a weak claim, but "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches..." seems quite relevent here. But I am also not a lawyer.

But there's no such legislation or required identification for my kids to see graphic violence and gore. We're a pretty bass ackwards society.

Are there graphic gore and violence websites that kids are frequenting by the millions daily?

Movies, books, and video games all have a decently sizeable amount, yea. Especially the Bible.

Movies already have ratings systems and age checks.
Books at book stores don’t generally have graphic violence and gore.
The bible is just text, there’s no gore or violence that kids can see.

I watched thousands of people die online in snuff films growing up, was in some live streams where people offed themselves too.
It was pretty common in my day, you'd see kids exchanging execution videos on the bus to and from school and whatnot. Some kid even had the police called on him at one point for the files he had downloaded on school computers.
Incredibly easy to find online and these websites won't listen to a state actor about putting an age limit on their content, plus surprise surprise they host porn too.
So when little texas timmy goes to bat he's gonna come across a helluva lot more fucked up shit than pornhub has to offer.
But hey FWIW with the porn and snuff, I'm a functional member of society, I don't commit crimes or abuse others and I don't vote conservative!
