I was using the internet at the local library yesterday. I Googled a photo of some news article on Goggle images and saw the library has blocked Google images, and noticed they also blocked Yahoo images. Or any kind of image search site, a big red STOP! sign came up.
I wondered what else they would censor from the public, I found some interesting results....
All white supremacist websites where banned, even Dr David Duke's site, and also Stormfront, and any kind of far right website.
After seeing this I then looked for Jewish and Islamic extremist websites, all of which were not censored. The Christians extremists The Westover Baptist church websites were censored but not Islamic and Jewish extremist sites. Are Islamic extremism and Jewish extremism beliefs less evil and dangerous than white supremacy extremism?
Personally I think all of them are stupid, but believe people should have the right to view what every information they wish if they are adults as long as they are not physically hurting people, no knowledge no matter how ignorant should be banned, as its the start of a very slippery slope. But if your going to censor one form of extremism, then censor them all.
Why would they do this?

whether we agree with peoples views or not.....
If we want to live in a trully free world the only way this can be done is if we all have the same freedoms and the same rights to say what we want.
