Is it so well regulated?

When was the last time you searched V-22 on google, with "Strict Safe Search is On" (not the default setting) I was expecting pictures of the tilt-rotor v-22 Osprey. You might be suprised that in flipping through pages of thumbnails I found several that showed explicit acts.

Or that seaching on "Paris", still with "Strict Safe Search is On", would provide me with more visual information than I ever needed? Shall I go on?

So, I guess I can say that my future kids cannot study geography or technology. (rhetorical)

It bothers me that your apparant hardline stand on this topic seems to be more about satisfying your own worldly desires and less about the cost associated with such ready access to explicit material or protecting the innocence of the young people, which in my opinion is a very shortsighted and irresponsible perspective.

I have no problem with your freedom to choose, however I have even less problem voting for and supporting any law that provides for enough hoops for you to jump through to protect my rights and the rights of my children.

Best of luck in your indulgences.

You need to refine your searches. Try +V-22+tiltrotor for the first search.

Even if you get porn links up, you don't need to click on them. There is such a thing as "self control" and it's what separates children from adults. And I know that google gives a small text excerpt from the page in question so I'm sure you're aware of what the page contains before you click on the link.

If you're worried about what your kids are viewing online, monitor them. I shouldn't be penalized because some people are too lazy to rear their children correctly.

My "hardline stand" has more to do with personal liberty than worldly desires. I do not like people telling me what I can or cannot view, listen to, or partake of. I am an adult, damnit, no one of your immature fools in need of nanny government. I am perfectly capable of determining what I should or should not do, and while your advice may be welcome, your running roughshod over my liberties is not.
