I agree that everyone deserves legal representation.
HOWEVER!!!!
That does not mean that everyone deserves legal representation from ME.
I am one of the strongest advocates of free expression but I cannot say that I could represent any client that handed me a check. I think my limit is a lot farther out there than most lawyers, because although I have seen stuff that makes me kind of ill to watch it, as long as there are only consenting adults involved I will defend the producer's right to make it and the consumer who wants to buy it.
My line is drawn at "consenting adults". That means that yes, I would represent someone who produces scat videos, I would represent someone who produces videos of vomiting and eating vomit, and all other really icky things that producers dream up.
I do not believe that animals can give consent, so I will not represent someone who wants to produce bestiality. I will not represent someone who has previously been convicted of child pron or acts with children. I don't handle criminal defense cases.
And I do claim to be an industry attorney.
