Before the internet the only form of communication people had was the TV and radio and we know who controlled those mediums. The problem with TV and radio is it is a one way communication with zero rebuttel allowed.

The internet has allowed like minded people to get together from areas all across the country to voice their opinions, change public opinion and hopefully the gov't. Banning what consenting adults view on the the 'net such as with LEGAL porn, whether a person likes it or not is a slippery slope.

The internet is our only form of defense we have against a tryannical gov't. Having the gov't take control of it in any way is bad news.

Keeping porn off of TV..fine. I have no problem with that but keep our only true voice of freedom open with zero gov't control

Hi there trail - thanks for the thoughtful post, but I'm done with this thread.

As for something we have in common.....have you ever hiked Bright Angel Trail to the bottom of the Grand Canyon (and back up!)? It's AWESOME! (Even for us old folks! :)

godzilla, I'm finally heeding the advice of a wise FRiend upthread not to try to reason with social liberals, as it is an exercise in futility.

I saw that you posted to me, but chose not to read it, and didn't want you to think I was ignoring you.

(Even though I am. :)
