The Comstock Act of 1873 is a series of current provisions in United States Federal law that generally criminalize the involvement of the United States Postal Service, its officers, or a common carrier in conveying obscene matter, crime-inciting matter, or certain abortion-related matter.
This law prohibits the Post Office from distributing anything related to abortion including materials to perform one to literature about abortions, and Planned Parenthood donation solicitations.
The law also prohibits mailing anything through the mail that is found to be obscene under the Miller test, which includes much of the smut of this wicked age whether domestic or imported. If applied properly, the law bans shipping smut romance novels like “50 Shades of Grey,” sinful coarse sitcoms like “Two and a Half Men” and the myriad of imported Japanese animated smut and many other things like pro-sodomite advocacy and “children’s books” featuring graphic pornography of minors like the now infamous book “Gender Queer.”
In 1873, Anthony Comstock was successful in pressing Congress to enact the Comstock Act to prevent "obscene, lewd or lascivious" items in the mail, with penalties up to ten years in prison. This included any pornography as well as information on contraception, birth control or abortion,... It is estimated that fifteen tons of pornographic books and publications, and four million photographs, were destroyed as a result of his labors during his long career. The Comstock Act was amended in 1923 to remove the prohibitions on distributing information on contraception and birth control due to sinful racist eugenicist Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger.
The problem with modern liberal governance is that this Act has not been properly enforced in so long, but under a righteous government we could ban so much sinful garbage that makes its way to our shores. Along with a total ban on online obscenity and a firewall system akin to the Great Firewall, which totally passes constitutional muster as it would only ban unprotected obscenity, the Comstock Act would be a vital tool to restore morality in America.
