Brownmiller Summaries Comparison

I read summaries written by Suzannah, Kaleena, and Matt. We all have the same basic idea that creating pornography is protected under the First Amendment. The differences we have is deciding who shouold be the ones to regulate where pornography is displayed.
I originally thought that the government should control where pornography is displayed, but after reading Matt's blog, I may have changed my mind. Matt said that if we let the government control where to display porn what else are they going to want to control? The domino effect of our country taking over everything in our "free country" is not a pleasing thought.
We all agree that pornography has become confused with art, but the laws need to be changed and redefined in order to clearly distinguish between the two. If that is not done this cycle will just continue on as it has for the last forty years.
It is interesting to read my classmates views on the same article. I especially find it intriguing how we can all interpret something just a little bit differently, but still end up at the same conclusion.
