My parents are quite politically active and forwarded this to me.

If you are as sick and tired of UNSOLICITED emails for porn sites, check this out and consider 'signing' the petition. It's making progress with approximately 135,000 'signatures', but they want to reach 250,000 'signatures'.

P.S. - And just so I don't offend anyone, I have no problem with anyone going and looking for porn on the internet if that's their thing, I'm just sick and tired of having mails sent to me that I DON'T want and didn't ask to be sent. And I also think the child pornography issue is an important one and that is this groups main goal to eradicate.

and your children.

http://www.grassfire.net/16/petition...ID=2233006&P=1

Grassfire.net has launched a NATIONAL CAMPAIGN designed to
rally 100,000 citizens to stand united against Internet Porn
in the next 90 days. After the U.S. Supreme Court recently
struck down The Child Pornography Protection Act, it became
clear to us that our government lacks the courage to fight
Internet porn.

Our NATIONAL CAMPAIGN demands the U.S. government
moves decisively--enacting tough laws that truly protect our
families from Internet smut.

* * * OUR FOUR GOALS.

--GOAL #1--
OUTLAW all unsolicited pornographic e-mail (PORN-SPAM).

--GOAL #2--
BAN computer-generated child pornography.

--GOAL #3--
KEEP OUR TAX DOLLARS from supporting the porn industry
by banning the use of public computers to view pornography,
and requiring all public places (schools, libraries) to install
pornography filtering software.

--GOAL #4--
Require all adult-oriented websites to migrate to a ".adult"
domain and establish the kid-friendly ".kids" section on
the Internet.

We can stop the flood in Internet Pornography - but only if a vast
army of concerned citizens rises up and says "enough is enough!"
*****************************

If anyone wants the original mail, PM or email me and I'll forward the entire mail directly to you. There's much more to this mail, but I didn't want to put it all in here and there are many more links, some really good for parents who need to know what's going on out there while their child is online.
