* DOJ Inaction Gives Pornographers the Green Light * *View this Important Message* http://www.afa.net/videos/dojinaction.wmv Adelphia Communications Corp. the nation's fifth largest cable company, is showing hardcore pornography on their cable systems. All other cable companies are expected to follow Adelphia's lead. Adelphia felt safe in offering the illegal obscenity because they know that the Department of Justice (DOJ) will not prosecute them. By their inaction, DOJ has indicated that they will not prosecute any cable system or Internet provider showing hardcore pornography. During the past 12 years the distributors and retailers of obscenity have had an open door to distribute their product while DOJ looked the other way. The first 8 years were under the Clinton administration. We can understand why there were few prosecutions, and those only of child pornography. The last 4 years were under the George W. Bush administration which simply followed Clinton's lead. Back in 2000, former Attorney General John Ashcroft, whom I consider a friend, promised he would begin prosecution of obscenity. He did not. He even appointed Drew Oosterbaan, a holdover from the Clinton administration, to head the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section. The CEOS section of DOJ has the responsibility to prosecute obscenity. DOJ has given a green light to every pornographer in America to trade their wares without worry. The laws to protect our children from obscenity are in place, but Oosterbaan and DOJ refuse to enforce them. It is time for parents to take a stand for their children and demand that DOJ enforce the law. Because of the addictive nature of pornography, the pornographers know that if they capture the children they will have customers for many, many years. *TAKE ACTION* Send a letter to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and to President Bush asking that the DOJ enforce the obscenity laws. http://www.afa.net/activism/takeaction.asp?id=151 Thanks for caring enough to get involved on behalf of our children and families.
