WAR ON PORN
I like a good knee jerk argument as much as the next guy, and am inclined to agree with the Stinging-Nettle's attack on Ashcroft's War on Porn. Musn't there be greater priorities?

But then I remembered the Cary, NC resident who got nabbed by Canadian computer forensic experts. Here's an except about the Canadian war on porn:
They are members of the child exploitation branch of the force's sex crimes unit, and last December, they managed to extract information enough from a collection of searing child-porn images posted on an international police website to identify the six-year-old's school.
...

Det. Sgt. Gillespie's rescued little girl, for example, was seen being beaten, urinated and defecated on, sodomized, forced into oral sex, degraded by having such slogans as "Kill me I'm a slut" written on her body and kept in a dog cage.
And here's something you can try. Type a female first name into a search engine and search for images. Remember to take off the safe search setting on the search engine. Now, that's what your kids can do. Maybe an FBI run war on porn isn't necessary to stop this easy availability, but there must be some solution.

And if this war on porn eliminates people like this Cary "man" from society, I'd say that's a good thing.
