I think the best we can do is try to stay on our state and local governments to keep kids out of it and have stricter fines for anything dealing with minors.
I think people wouldn't be so supportive of porn if they really knew what kind of life the girls who get mixed up in it actually have. Most have been raped and molested. They need intensive therapy, not to be exploited.

People will never care about the smut and pornography until it affects them someway on a personal level. Until then we just have to take a stand and not support it.

You can only make a stand for yourself and choose not to watch or go to these websites.
If you try and shut it down, you run afoul not only of First Amendment rights, but a larger question of what gives you the right to decide what I can and cannot see?

Turn your computer off and go watch Sesame Street.
Why do you think you have the right to determine what is available to others?
Why don't Christians just stay off the Internet and stop watching TV if they find it so offensive?

You unamerican jerk. Dont wanna look at porn? Dont. No ones making you. But if other losers wanna, let them. IT'S AMERICA. Freedom. You have no right to govern what others can and cant do.
You probably look at porn anyway. :/

Worry about your own morality and stop trying to tell everyone else what they should and should not do.

With moms and dads who are responsible and with laws that promote freedom from oppression not freedom to do anything one wants.
Many don't understand our nation was founded on the idea of freedom from, not freedom to, we are a nation of law and that is why we have such freedom from those who would do as they please like stomp on your freedom.

Don't log on to their sites and put up a firewall. Also use parental controls if you have children
