Proposed .xxx Domain

[Topazure@xxxxxxx]

Dear Sir or Madam:
 
I wish to express to you my strongly-held opinion that the addition  of a 
".xxx" domain, as the proposal now stands, will only serve to  increase the 
plague of pornography on our nation, and also do nothing to  protect our 
children 
from being exposed to a variety of horrific  images.
 
If the proposal to add the .xxx domain included a law which would  require 
ALL pornographic websites to operate ONLY from a .xxx domain, I,  and probably 
millions of other Americans, would welcome and support such a  proposal. 
Enacting legislation that limited pornography to a .xxx domain  would enable 
parents 
like me to lock out any domain from search engines on  computers in my 
household, thereby preventing my child from being exposed  to images that no 
child 
should ever see.
 
As it stands, however, it appears that adding a .xxx domain will only  create 
an outlet for even more pornography to spread across the Internet.  What on 
earth are people thinking, in suggesting this, when it would be so  easy to 
protect our children while allowing those who view pornography to  view it 
freely? Why is no one proposing a domain where all pornography can  be 
contained? 
Has anyone ever suggested that our country is a better place  for having huge 
amounts of pornography available at the click of a mouse  button?

Please consider my thoughts on this matter, as I know that I speak  for many 
people.
 
Thank you.
 
Sincerely,
