Are we saying one thing and doing another? Someone said they didn't want the U.S. Gov. involved in policing the web but another said they hoped the F.B.I. would step in and police the web. I am confused. Another poster said they didn't see the site in question (I didn't either) but had many comments on it's content. I don't know. As I said, I am confused. Do we want to be watchdogs or do we want someone else to be a watchdog for us or do we just want complete control? Do we only want things censored thay we find objectionable? ÿ

Hi redstone....I think you're referring to Harrie's post in the first thread you listed. If so, if you'll read it again, she said she is afraid that our government will get involved and she doesn't want that.... http://www.cybertechhelp.com/ubb/smile.gif

I think they should only be able to put things on the web that I want to see.. That way we could cut it down to about 1 million sites. It sure would be a lot easier to find stuff. There you are... My feelings... http://www.cybertechhelp.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.cybertechhelp.com/ubb/eek.gif

Just to try and clear up my position on this issue.

I think censorship is bad and although i have strong opinions about bigots i have nothing against them voiceing thier opinions in a sensible and constructive manner which can provoke debate and even help people understand others differing views of life. The site in question on the other hand had zero interlectual content and was clearly there as a place to bad mouth other races and culture in the most degrading way possible.
