Many forms of government

Many forms of government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time. – Winston Churchill

Federal appeals panel upholds computer

Federal appeals panel upholds computer child-porn law

The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has become the third federal appeals court to uphold a federal law expanding the definition of child pornography to include computer-generated images of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct – even if the images only appear to be of a minor.

I understand that the whole “kiddie porn bad” because of the exploitation of child. But it seems as if the “Moral Majorities” are streaching things way to far.
