Sorry- I'm back.

One thing we might keep in mind is that the efforts to put this material, whether it's movies, print, videos or music, into the hands of youngsters are not altruistic- and these are not their peers sharing information and entertainment. These are people who are bent on profiting financially - this is an issue of cynicism and greed.

The same rationale holds for dealing drugs. Drugs are not made available so youngsters can be enlightened- drugs are meant to create a market, so that the dealer on up (or down!) can reap insane profits. The effect on lives is not part of the equation.

Dealers of either material may be among the most vociferous bewailing censorship- but trust me, it is not their American rights they are talking about- they are protecting their living.
