> So does your understanding of the first amendment allow about passing a photo of a child being raped?

No... You know it doesn't and you also know that this kind of speech is nothing like the speech that was directly prevented here by the government, so let's stop playing games.




I'm trying to establish some basic understanding of our laws here. There are no absolutes, lines have to be drawn somewhere. And in the case of encouraging people to spread diseases to kill other people, seems obvious a line should be drawn. IMO it's as serious as any of the things I mentioned.
