You can't get a "little bit pregnant."

Free speech is not in question here. It's about whether paintings or drawings can be deemed to be real and prosecuted as such.
Alex says it best. "The right to free speech not only isn't an absolute, except that it absolutely stops where it starts infringing on others." It's a pity they don't carry it through. Like stopping people smoking in films, stop violence, stop allowing kids to upload movies of them beating up other kids.
They target child picture porn because it's an easy target.
With this judgement where does it stop?
