It’s about CHOICE... not censorship.

Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow ‘ye may be in Utah.

You don’t have to use this particular internet harbour, if you chose not to do so.

[lady lawyer]

Yeah. I understand slippery slopes. I’m just reiterating that this can’t be one of them, because censoring of the internet has been tried, unsuccessfully, over and over. It is not constitutionally permissible.

To me, the state is setting up something like an optional FDA, which will set standards and assure the buyer that the product meets them. But, this is not coercive at all, as is the FDA, because the option to bypass exists, and will always exist, thanks to ironclad first amendment case law that has stymied all efforts at censorship of pornography on the internet.

I think it’s a great idea. I’ll buy it, and I suspect most of my neighbors will, too.

Here is a web site that certainly should be censored.

It has gross pictures [utah.gov],

pictures of dead people [utah.gov],

and a giant phallus! [utah.gov]

There are even naked breasts [utah.gov].

Please, do it for the kids!
