[Always Right]

Secondly, you advocate the violation of the rights of adults.

You still don't get it. Adults will still be able to access the internet unfiltered. Shoot, kids can even get total access if they have permission from their parents. There is absolutely no one's rights being violated. I can't see why it is so hard to understand that point.

You don't understand my point at all, as you are looking at it through blinders. I am against GOVERNMENTAL censorship. I have said, on many occasions, that I would have no problem with installing filters on computers that are restricted to children's use. I have a major problem with filters on any computer that is available to an adult. My point is that once you start putting filters on library computers, it will be hard to stop them from being put on all of them. Where you may want to restrict access to pornography, some nanny-stater on a library commission may want to restrict access to religious materials, since an argument can be made that on public property (such as a public library) it violates the "establishment" clause of the First Amendment (the ACLU's favorite argument, which I, personally, think does not in any way refelct the original meaning and intent of the First Amendment, but you see where I'm going with this). Do you really want to go there?
