Subject: Re: [IP] When Cartoons Become Criminal

A correction to the AP report below: *All three* judges agreed that the cartoons were obscene, and therefore unprotected by the first amendment. The dissenting judge argued, however, that receipt of the cartoons could be punished only under the general obscenity statute, not under the child pornography statute.
