We are going to have to agree to disagree. Child pornography is a bad example because it is illegal. Why? Because children are not old enough to give "consent". The "community standards" argument is a slippery slope. Let's say the "community" decides to ban all songs written by Cat Stevens because he is Muslim. Well, you know where am going with that.
