By letting criminals change how you go about your life (such as restricting speech and wanting sites like MySpace taken down), you are letting criminals dictate your actions.

It wouldn't even begin to change how I go about my life because I don't visit sites of that nature! It would certainly limit how a predator goes about HIS/HER life, though! If this was to change my life in any way, it would put me in an active position of doing something about a danger to our nation's children.

Restricting the speech I'm talking about is a good thing. It's dangerous. The "enjoyment" of a pervert in his perverted activities is also a very good thing! It's not an "enjoyment" for their victims.

If YOU want to visit pornographic sites, that's YOUR business. I take it you are over 18?

I didn't say children shouldn't be protected. But the biggest part of that takes place in the child's home. How would you propose protecting children on the Internet itself?

I do protect my computer savvy grandchildren by watching where they go on the Internet. My computer is in my kitchen and I can see and hear what is going on from my living room. For the four grandchildren who are under 7, I have special programs for them that doesn't require them to go on the Internet.

As for your responses to me, you don't need to watch for any more posts from me. Everyone that has followed this thread knows where I stand. I don't need to belabor the point. Some will understand, some won't. It's yours and their choice.
