There are a couple of things I'll offer in response.
First, let me say that we agree on how heinous the behaviour was based on the underlying facts that went to the Supreme Court. I think every one of our colleagues, regardless of their party, feels the same way. We need strong laws to address such egregious behaviour.
The reasonable hypothetical they cited, involving somebody who aged out of a teenage relationship effectively, is the kind of thing that exists in our society. Since that case has come up, I've had a few people come to me from a coaching, cadet program or teaching environment and say these things do come up and that they hope we crack down on the bad actors, but the 18-year-old who innocently received a picture probably isn't who we're thinking of when we think about child sexual exploitation and abuse material.
From my perspective, the use of that reasonable hypothetical is important to ensure that our laws capture appropriately the kind of egregious conduct that was the subject of the offences committed in that decision.
