The court gave no reasoning for its order, which is remarkable given that the law has never been allowed to go into effect, so the order — although posed as merely “administrative” — is a ruling, at least temporarily, changing the status of state law.
Good! You lying sack of shit. It’s not a “book ban” it’s a “keep porno away from minors” ban. You sick fuck.
