Plaintiff's Opposition to the Demurrer in Livermore
"The City is maintaining a computer system which allures children to its
keyboard and, upon the typing of a word as simple as "girl" and clicking
thrice, will call up obscenities of the vilest persuasion. The law presumes
that such images are harmful children. While Plaintiff would ask for an
opportunity to amend the first cause of action as specified."

Memo by Bruce Taylor to Congress on C.O.P.A.
"It is the legal opinion of the attorneys of the National Law Center for

Protection Act is constitutional and would be upheld by the Supreme Court."

New, more shocking incidents from the Ft. Vancouver (WA) Library:
"After several prior incidents of sperm being found by staff in the
restroom on the floor after a particular set of brothers have been using
the internet, I approached one of the patrons, asked him to my office
and told him that we had seen a pattern of sperm and his internet use.
After examining his hands for an extended period of time, I said that
ejaculation was an inappropriate activity in the library. "
