That material is not protected <br />Dy ~ne Fi~s5 Amendment. There is much, however, WhiCh is <br />protected Dy ~ne First Amendment, which to many people is <br />defensive (sic). And.g~neral~y teat material is ~e£med <br />as pornographic. <br /> <br /> Many, many people, pernaps tee majority of t~e <br />people, are opposed to pornographic material. However, <br />po£nographic ma~erial is unqualified and proaected by tee <br />First Amendment. <br /> <br /> Now, the s~ate and ~Be city in ~his instance <br /> <br />can affec~ pornographic material within certain <br />s~andards. The s~a~e can affect the First ~nendment <br />righ~ as ~o pornographic material, if it complies with <br />certain restrictions as laid down by, again, ~he U.S. <br />Supreme Court. And tao~e conditions are this: is -- the <br />city can adop~ an ordinance which affects pornograpaic <br />material if ~nac ordinance is within ~ne Constitutional <br />power of ~ne government, if ~ne ordinance adopted has an <br />impor~ana or substantial gove£nmentai inueres~, if the <br />governmen~ interest is unreia~ed ~o the suppression of <br />freedom of speech, and finally, if the incidental <br />restriction on ~ne Fi~sa ~nendmea~ rights is no g£ea~er <br />than essential. <br /> <br />AD~4S COURT REPORTING <br /> <br />(612) 375-9150 <br /> <br /> <br />
