If we Americans had only one law, that law should be the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It gives all of us the right to speak out, to complain, to read and write what we wish and to worship as we choose.
Politicians celebrate the First Amendment and the rest of our freedoms in speeches.
Nevertheless, they attack it every chance they get, and they get lots of chances because many constituents really, when it comes right down to it, prefer censorship. Often, censors ostensibly want to protect children. Fortunately for all of us, the Supreme Court of the United States recently struck it down. Congress enacted the CDA in response to constituents' worries about pornography on the Internet. As anyone with experience on the World Wide Web must know, there is a lot of pornography out there.
