I agree. If a government censors something, the people are not allowed to see it first hand. That means they are just trusting the government's opinion of 'something' with out any checks and balances; and that is worse.
Not sure how this applies to child porn. I guess if someone wants to write about a fantasy about it, fine; just don't involve any real live children. So if someone wants to publish hate propaganda, fine; just don't kill anyone. Hmm.... I hope someone has something intelligent to say about this - I am not sure I like my current beliefs.
