I Oppose the .XXX Domain

["Wayne A. Wheeler" <wwheeler@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear Members of the Board of ICANN:
 
I am writing to urge you to kill the proposal of the .XXX domain. In addition 
to strong opposition from both sides of the argument, this new domain would 
only increase the amount of pornography available on the Web, easing 
accessibility to hard core pornography to minors and adults alike. 

Pornography is a widespread, ever-growing crisis, polluting the minds of its 
viewers and negatively changing attitudes towards women and children. Please do 
NOT participate in the destruction of marriages, the abuse of children, and the 
demise of our culture.

A more appropriate goal should be to STOP the distribution of this destructive 
material by prosecuting those responsible for it, not to protect pornography on 
the .XXX domain.  

The Web can be such a wonderful source of information, learning, shopping, etc. 
all for great and good purposes, but the presence of pornography has no good 
purpose.  .XXX domain will just lure more viewers to be hooked on this 
degrading site while the distributers of this pollution get  FILTHY RICH at 
other people's expense. 

Again, please kill the proposal of the .XXX domain.  The future of our world is 
at stake.  

Sincerely,

Anita L. Wheeler
