What do you both feel about someone in the US possessing a video of 16 year olds having consensual sex (and consenting to the video, too) in a country where such conduct and film making is legal?

And what is your opinion on the "sex tourism" law that forbids sex with anyone under 18--even if the age of consent in the country visited is lower?

I'm in agreement that illegal actions engaged for the purposes of filming them should make the film itself illegal. But when the actions are legal were they occurred, the film should be legal.

Legal actions >> illegal films is effectively prosecution of thoughts, IMO. I also hold the same position regarding kiddie porn (for example) as depicted by drawings or computer effects.
