- Anthony Comstock (1844–1915) was a moral crusader whose efforts to curtail not only literature that he considered to be obscene but also information on birth control and abortion often raised issues involving First and Fourth Amendment rights. Born in a religious home in New Canaan, Connecticut, Comstock attended a local academy before enrolling in the Union Army. [Source: Encyclopedia of the Fourth Amendment; Comstock, Anthony]
