U.S. Supreme Court To Rule On Online Porn Law
froggle2003 writes "Sites like goodfig.org and NEWS.com.au are among the first to report that the U.S. Supreme Court has decided to rule on the constitutionality of the Child Online Protection Act (COPA). The COPA was passed in 1998 in an effort to crack down on sites that don't block porn from children. It calls for 6 months in jail and $50,000 in fines for first-time violaters. Opponents of the COPA led by the ACLU are quick to note that the COPA makes criminals of many individuals using the internet for legitimate purposes such as providing information on anatomy, gynecology, safe-sex advice, etc."
The world has been a sad place since all the parents were wiped out. Who will look after the children?
Oh, wait a minute, I'm a parent. I'm also responsible for my children...hmmm...
Now that I think about it, most of the children in my son's school also appear to have parents or guardians. In fact, I can't think of one child that isn't being cared for by some adult.
Hey, maybe this is a problem that parents can deal with!
Oh, wait, that's right. That would require personal responsibility. We don't have that anymore. Everything is someone else's fault.
Thank God we didn't have the internet when I was a kid, so I never had to see any pornography.
