Dear Sir,, Thank you for your assistance in bringing my voice to the public arena. I go one step further and ask you to please call a poll on the Internet to see how much this is really being supported out there. Please do whatever it takes to filter this smut business away from our children for a better future. We live in a free country but many seem to forget that our freedom is built around responsibilities and since many parents and individuals don’t understand this word, the Government of the day rightly has the option to intervene. Those sick individuals or group of individuals who watch this filth and those who support the right to watch it are the one and the same, they have sick minds it has nothing to do with freedom of choice. Psychologically you can become accustom to certain visual, auditory or verbal garbage if you involve yourself in it enough, internet sexual addiction is becoming a reality, it is researched and often documented in recent mainstream psychological studies, those who are involved in it has a persona that seems to think it is right to use and abuse sexually explicit materials, unlike the real world on the internet there is no objection to giving or receiving this form of material so why not abuse it. For those who object to censorship I really believe there is an ulterior motive for their objection. Censorship is needed for the Internet on a global scale not just in Australia it is very very refreshing to see Australia lead the world once again in such a way. Censorship applied in television in advertising in sales in promotion and in many public domains the only open media that has no form of global censorship is the Internet. Not so long ago and for whatever reasons an Internet consortium involving the previous government also rejected the creation of a new domain name for sexually immoral and perverted individuals, that was a good option to leave all sexually explicit materials in certain types of domain ie (sex.au) for example, it made perfect sense then. Leaving it to individuals is just a joke it is very clear when you read some of the posts here that some individuals don’t understand the concept of child protection, you don’t have to have a child to protect a child. Democracy for some means I can behave in whatever immoral way and no one can to tell me I am wrong. We must go to whatever length and do whatever it takes to protect our future (The Children), Censorship is needed right now in whatever shape if it needs tweaking in future that is fine but you cant watch a cancerous tumour growing in your body and take a local shot of anastatic to ease the pain, this is what is happing with (individual filtering) it does not work we need a radical method such as this or similar. Thank you very much once again for your actions and for reading my opinion, which many share but don’t voice.
