Someone please tell me why if it is completly legal for you to own a movie, it is ILLEGAL for me to sell it to you?

The way most of these obscenity laws are written, any depiction of explicit sex is illegal - and I can be arrested for it, but it's only OBSCENE if a jury convicts on it.

That leave's me as the arbitor of what is acceptable in a given community, but if I "choose" poorly, I can be thrown in jail for it. Am I suppossed to know the contents of all 1700 movies on my sales floor?

I can be arrested for selling the same movie you could pay-per-view on your local cable which was given a francise by your local government.

Talk about your chilling effects on free speech.
