Well Sam, let me quote what you said again. "Mosca - define "obscene". In my country, the general definition is "Indecent; likely to deprave or corrupt". Pictures of naked children usually fall into that category." The latter part looks like your opinion to me. I don't know of many countries where pictures of naked children are "usually" considered as obscene or indecent by the legal system. Otherwise almost every house in the country could be raided for the pics in the famly album. Even UK law makers are not that stupid, quite. As to public figures stiring the mud to their own purposes, yes, I'm sure that they do. Just as you tried doing in your post. So, please, do try to keep your "legal" statements accurate and separate from personal opinion. :)
