Yea... lets start monitoring all those hate mongering sites... line the National Organization for Women, the NAACP, Moveon.org, Rush Limbaugh's web site... gosh there's just too many to list.
Just trying to make a point about slippery slopes here
, don't be so quick to sign on for a patrolled internet... once the authoritarian crowd gets in they're like ticks's, darn near impossible to root out.
IMO expunging child exploitation from the net is definitely a worthy cause, but don't give them a blank check to step on freedom of speech based on their narrow minded interpretation of what's appropriate.
Quote:
In Germany they came first for the Communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up.
