watch your kids when they are online

Yeah, my son isn't old enough to be able to use a computer, but I know I have a pretty good system already set up for when he is.

just don't ask the Govt Courts to handle

Handle raising kids? I know this is the strawman argument always brought out in this debate. Tell me, do you support laws against public lewdness? How do you rationalize that against your internet arguments?

The internet while being in a sense "public" actually requires "Private" things to be accessed... IE. a computer or web surfing device.. an subscription to an ISP.. etc... as an adult I have not found myself being surprised by "porn" while browsing in any time I can remember... now if I look for it thats a different story...

the internet is very different than taking a walk in the public square and finding a 2 people in the act of sex ... or some guy with his unit swinging in the wind...

as far as an earlier question:
So do you agree with the statement that “websites clearly announce what content they have inside”?
obviously this is not the case as there are "campers and such that take advantage of misspellings and such... and who in the hell would have known what "goatse" was (warning do not google "goatse").... but any good filtering software does not rely on the websites name or even voluntary ratings... most use search crawlers to determine content ... as a parent get good filtering software ...
