Justice Dept Stupidity

in regards to filtering porn

The government "will argue that parents are too stupid to use filters. It's an insulting argument and it's wrong," ACLU attorney Chris Hansen said in his opening statement Monday.


Eric Beane, a government attorney, acknowledged that it is tempting to defer to families on the question of what is appropriate for children, but said the patchwork of filters used by parents don't work.


"The evidence will show that a shocking amount of pornography slips through to children," Beane said.

your midget amputee girl and girl porn get filter out?


anyway - to answer your question - yes it is the parents' job and NO it is not the government's job



here's the deal - internet access computer only in a non-private space (now by the time my kid is using a computer wireless will make that more difficult but then you just restrict access to the computer) at the end of the day there is nothing that can be done to ensurea child is 100% safe and many attempts to do so create safe little crazies
