federal felony for Webmasters to use innocent words like "Barbie" or "Furby"

Yeah, I agree with Tommy as well. BUT, we all know the Gov't is heading down the path to a "quiet" (as in it's not going to be told on by media news outright) Orwellian response to it's citizens. I definitly agree that ANY use of wording that is meant to lure children into an adult site for any reason should be grounds for jailing the shitballs responsable for up to 50 years or more. BUT, that does not mean it should give the Gov't ANY right to throw US all (and I mean adult webmasters who run legit businesses and sites) into the same category. For gods sakes, what ever happened to useing common sense and justice?

I have my pages labeled and have also included a FAQ by ASACP, also a link to report any type of suspected sites period, of that kind of low-life activity...I encourage people to do it too. I have reported many sites I've come across at other webmaster resource sites for listing underage shit etc., and I'll continue to do so for as long as it takes.

Just my 2cents

yeah....because christ knows that porn and sex kill more kids each year the violence and drug usage right? along with stepparents beating and killing their step kids(the cinderella effect).

...well, that's a pretty good side of the argument too, but why clean up the US streets of drugs and not allow parts of our own crooked Gov't to profit from street drug usage (you know, the thing about cocaine or what-not beaing smuggled by US airforce pilots onto a US base not long ago). As for jailing/getting rid of the child beaters, dead-beat parents etc., why put all the lawyers and judges out of a job and prevent them from making shitloads of $$$ from all those cases, of which a growing percentage are beaing thrown back onto the streets, the asswipes get a hand slap and told not to do it again.

Yes, I'm beaing nicely sarcastic, but only to prove one of too many points about this country we live in...it has become corrupted by greed. Greed drives and motivates no matter what one must do to attain wealth or power. Yes, I love my country, but not what it's turning into.

But anyhow...if it meant I was able to stop a child from beaing beaten, r*ped or whatever, you're damned right I would risk my own civil libertys and risk 50 years at Pelican Bay. As for kids killed by porn...the big so called crackdowns on child p*rn is only a small dent in a huge problem, so yeah, porn can be blamed for that. BUT, as for US legit Webmasters who hate that kind of garbage, the US lawyers, judges, daddy Bush and son, Bush Jr., and all the rest of the guilty parties should get their heads out of their behinds and relise we are trying to do our part in keeping kids away from adult oriented content. It might be a small part we all play in this problem, but it's the effort that counts
