I've had the to ah, Attend a, a you might say, A of ah, This porn as they call it. In the pornography, One of the things to at Is that it does not any redeeming social value. Ah, could be an exception here Because I attended that presentation. A social value, I find it's inaudible. I have a hard understanding it.

So I'll be looking from this standpoint Not to bring pression, But to try to see if is some constitutional provision To tax, or procedure can be used on the To limit this filth.
