Pornography: Pornography and Children

In a Constitutional Republic such as the United States, citizens elect representatives to serve their interests in the governing structure. These officers of the people serve as lawmakers, leaders, and interpreters of the law. Since the people have divested themselves of certain direct responsibilities, such as making or enforcing the law, these leaders must serve with integrity, honesty, and sacrifice. There are many fine leaders waging the war against obscenity, but just as often many in these positions of authority consistently fail to serve the public interest in keeping our communities safe from the fallout of the widespread dissemination of pornography.
