I support COPA. The less free porn that was on the net, the more money we would all make.
"protection for pornography week" sounds like something that has been done every year by every President. It is like Flag Day, or Secretaries Day.
The prosecutors they have hired is the only legitimate sign. Myabe the are going to be tasked with getting KP? There are some things being produced now that do cross the line. How many federal prosecutors are there in the US? What percentage is 32?

Both Bush and Clinton backed COPA and it is telling that federal courts found the bill to be unconstitutional. Certainly, there is hardly a politician who is a friend of porn. Some of the legislation like this has been proposed by democrats and some by republicans.
The 32 prosecutors were only very recently hired and there are more funds proposed for 2005. I don't think Bruce Taylor was hired for no reason at all.
We've been stuck with this pathetic definition of obscenity for 3 decades. It's absurd. One doesn't even know when one is breaking the law. That to me is where a change needs to be made.
