When a child is kidnapped, molested & raped, then the outcry. Evil, sick, upsidedown world we’re living in.

I totally and completely disagree with everything the people defending this are saying about it. This is not a matter of restricting information - this is a matter of displaying material that in any other setting would get the person charged with a form of sexual assault against a minor (it’s called different things in different states).

I could see the argument for the public library to offer books and titles for borrowing, but NOT for viewing within the library itself, and especially not in the full view of the general public. People do have a right not to be exposed to graphic sexuality unless they choose to do so - it’s why public indecency is a crime. Some criminals’ fetishes involve shock exposure to strangers (adults and children alike - they get their jollies by making others uncomfortable), and this type of activity in a public setting is right up their alley.

This is the reason we have DVD players and cable tv in our homes, and the reason there are adult store with “viewing rooms”. This is not socially acceptable behavior, and it’s definitely criminally negligent on the part of the PUBLIC Library System officials to allow exposure of children to this type of activity.

If I were a parent I would be livid if this were my community library. I would definitely HAVE to boycott the library as long as this behavior was allowed, and not treated like the serious problem it is.

This world is fast falling down a hole I don’t think it’s ready for in the least...

Isaiah 5:20 (KJV)
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

the library has held fast to its policy of unfettered online access for grown-ups.

Kiddy Porn too?
Well, isn't that precious....

It’s time to simply start closing libraries. They served their purpose, just like the Ice Man, the Milk Man, the Egg Man, etc. They are relics of another age. Keep the books stored away for our post-EMP days, but end the concept of the public library.

...and make DAMN SURE that the librarians understand that it was THEIR ATTITUDE that caused them to be tossed out of work.

I have a 92 year old father who is scammed by Nigerian internet scammers. We destroyed the internet port on his computer at home, so he goes to the public library to do it. I have reported it to the city library - but they won’t do anything about it. Same principle - a crime is being committed at a public facility using city equipment. Yu would think they would be held complicit in the crime of elder abuse.

What if this happened in a private home? Hm?

What if a neighbor showed porn to a 10 old in a private home?

What would happen to a **parent** if the the **parent** exposed a 10 year old to porn?

Down on the Animal Farm, government employees sleep in the farmer’s house. Parents and private citizens get hauled off to prison and labeled as sexual perverts for the rest of their lives. OINK!

HOMESCHOOL PING

This ping list is for articles of interest to homeschoolers. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping List. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added or removed from either list, or both.

The keyword for the FREE REPUBLIC HOMESCHOOLERS’ FORUM is frhf.

I thought this would be of interest to homeschoolers considering how much they avail themselves of the library.

Our tax monies used by a small cadre of radical Leftists to undermine us. That’s SOP folks. Defund the Left by defunding government.

"Information"? Is she serious?
