Right of adults to access p0-reN outweighs harm to children
Federal Court fails to protect our children
Update - August 10, 2008: I have received so many disgusting comment spams through links to this article from p-rn sites, that I have disabled commenting for this article. This is unfortunate, but necessary. These sick comments haven’t appeared on TeamTuxedo in spite of their best efforts. If you wish to leave a comment, use the contact page and I’ll add it manually.
On the heels of a troubling ruling it issued this week overturning a $550,000 fine levied against CBS for Janet Jackson’s breast-revealing Super Bowl performance, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia struck down the Child Online Protection Act (COPA), a law enacted by Congress in response to parents’ legitimate concern that their children are highly vulnerable to easily accessible obscene materials on the Internet.
In a shocking opinion lacking common sense, the unanimous court ruled that the government’s interest in the welfare of children did not justify the reasonable regulations COPA placed on commercial po-nogr-phers that required proof of age before a user could view highly offensive s-xually-explicit material.
The United States Department of Justice said it is considering an appeal to the United States Supreme Court. But it needs your encouragement!
The primary role of our government is to protect its citizens, and the most vulnerable among us are our children. Congress passed a reasonable law designed to protect children but the court said it infringed the rights of po-nogr-phers and their customers. As usual, the court put the interests of big money ahead of innocent and vulnerable children.

Encourage U.S. Attorney General Michael B. Mukasey to appeal this dangerous ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court.
